CARE AND CLEANING

tube for the bleach and softener. Run warm water

and a soft brush or cloth over the two parts to

remove any excess laundry additives.

illustrations in reverse order to replace the two

compartment container to its original location.

Clean the interior of the washer periodically to remove any

dirt, soil, odor, mold, mildew or bacteria residue that may

remain in the washer as a result of washing clothes. We

recommend taking the following steps every 60 to 120 days

to clean and freshen your washer interior. The frequency

with which the washer should be cleaned and freshened

depends on factors such as usage, the amount of dirt, soil

or bacteria being run thr

ough your washer, or the use of

cold water. Failure to follow these instructions may result in

unsatisfactory conditions, including unpleasant odor and/or

permanent stains on the washer or washload.

1. Make a solution of one cup chlorine bleach and

two cups warm water. Be careful not to spill or

splash the bleach solution.

2. Wipe the lower portion of gray door seal with

bleach solution and soft cloth.

3. Fill the bleach dispenser with chlorine bleach.

4. Run the washer through a complete cycle using

hot water.

5. Repeat the wash cycle if necessary.
