Cleaning Instructions
INSIDE
• Remove items from the washer as soon as the cycle
ends. Excess wrinkling, color transfer, and odors may
develop in items left in the washer.
• Dry the washer top, the area around the lid opening,
and the underside of the lid. These areas should always
be dry before the lid is closed.
• Before cleaning the washer interior, unplug the electri-
cal power cord to avoid electrical shock hazards.
• When extremely soiled items have been washed, a dirty
residue may remain on the tub. Remove this by wiping
the tub with a nonabrasive household cleanser. Rinse
thoroughly with water.
• The base plate or tub may become stained from fabric
dye. Clean these parts with a nonabrasive household
cleanser. This prevents dye transfer to future loads.
FABRIC SOFTENER DISPENSER
• Remove the dual chamber insert (a) from the bleach
and fabric softener dispenser by pinching at the cham-
ber divider and lifting upward. Also remove the siphon
cap (b).
• Rinse the insert and cap with a combination of ¾ cup
liquid chlorine bleach and 1 gallon hot tap water to
remove any buildup. Large amounts of fabric softener
residue may indicate improper dilution or more fre-
quent cleaning is required. Rinse well with tap water.
• For the dispenser well, use a small brush to clean the
recesses. Remove all residue.
• Replace the siphon cap and insert by pressing it in
place until you hear a slight click.
OUTSIDE
• When washing is completed, wipe top and sides of
washer with a damp cloth. Turn water faucets off to
prevent pressure build-up in the hoses.
• Clean the cabinet with mild soap and water. Never use
harsh, gritty or abrasive cleansers
• If the cabinet becomes stained, clean with diluted
chlorine bleach (1 part bleach to 8 parts water). Rinse
several times with clear water.
• Remove glue residue from tape or labels with a mixture
of warm water and mild detergent. Or, touch residue
with the sticky side of tape.
• Before moving the washer, place a strip of cardboard or
thin berboard under the front leveling legs to prevent
damage to the oor.
IMPORTANT
Do not store or place laundry products on top of washer
at any time. They can damage the nish or controls.
