WASHER MAINTENANCE

CLEANING YOUR WASHER

Keep your washer as clean and fresh as your clothes.

To keep washer interior odor-free, follow this recommended

cleaning procedure at least once a month:

1. Make sure laundry drum is empty.

2. Using recommended AFFRESH

washer cleaner, add

one tablet to washer basket.

If using liquid chlorine bleach, add 1 cup (250 mL) to

liquid chlorine bleach dispenser.

IMPORTANT: Do not add detergent to Clean Washer

with Affresh

cycle. Do not use more than recommended

amount of bleach to avoid damaging product over time.

3. Close washer door.

4. Press POWER/CANCEL.

5. Select Clean Washer with Affresh

™

cycle.

6. Press and hold START/PAUSE.

NOTE: The basket will rotate, then the door will unlock,

lock again, and then the cycle will continue. The washer

will add some water, and the basket will rotate while

the washer runs a short sensing cycle. This will take

approximately 3 minutes.

7. The cycle will determine whether clothing or other items

are in the washer. If no items are detected in the washer,

it will proceed to Step 8.

If any items are detected in the washer, “rL” will be

displayed, and the WASH and CONTROL LOCK

indicators will light. The door will unlock. Open and

remove any garments in the wash drum. Press POWER/

CANCEL to cancel the error message. Then repeat

steps 3–6 to start the cycle again.

8. Once the cycle has started, allow it to nish. If you must

cancel the cycle before it has nished, press POWER/

CANCEL. “Int” (Interrupted) will appear in the display.

It may take up to 10 minutes for the door to unlock.

9. After the cycle has ended, leave the door open slightly,

to allow for better ventilation and drying of washer

interior.

To clean exterior:

1. Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills.

2. Use mild soap and water if needed.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging washer nish, do not use

abrasive products.

13. Remove garments promptly

after cycle is nished

Promptly remove garments after cycle has

completed to avoid odor and rusting of

metal objects on garments. When unloading

garments, pull back the door seal and check

for small items between the tub and the basket.

If you will be unable to remove the load

promptly, use the Fresh Hold

™

option. If the

Fresh Hold

™

option is selected, the washer will

automatically activate the fan and tumble

the load periodically for up to 16 hours.

NOTE:

n

After any wash cycle is completed,

the door must be opened and then

closed before a new cycle can begin.

n

A small amount of water may remain in the dispensers after

the wash cycle is complete. This is normal.

n

This washer has a tight seal to avoid water leaks. To avoid

odors, leave the door open to allow the washer to dry

between uses.
