Care and Cleaning
! Unplug electric power cord before cleaning washer dryer to avoid shock.
Cleaning the Exterior
Use a soft damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills. Occasionally wipe the outside of your
unit to keep it looking new.
Cleaning the Interior
The drum is made of stainless steel so it will no rust. However, specks of rust can be caused
by small metal articles like safety pins, paper clips or belt buckles washed in the washer dryer.
The drum should be cleaned regularly. Not cleaning the drum may lead to a build up of scale
clogs, limescale and dirt leading to replacement. Clean the drum by using chlorine bleach.
Mix one cup of bleach and two scoops or caps of detergent. Pour this into detergent drawer
compartment two. Choose automatic wash program, rotate Wash program knob to position four. Rotate
water Temperature knob to 140 ºF position. Push Power button to start. Repeat if necessary. To remove
hard water deposits or scales, use washer safe labeled cleaners. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp
cloth. Apply a liquid nonflammable household cleaner to stained areas and wipe with a soft cloth to
remove stains or colors. Never use steel wool. Use descaling agents suitable for use on stainless
steel. Some descalers contain chemical components that can attack parts of your washer dryer.
Be careful in selecting the right descaler. After cleaning run a cycle with plain water to remove
any residual agents before inserting laundry.
Water Inlet Hose
Replace hose after five years of use to reduce risk of hose failure. Periodically inspect and
replace if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks are found. Mark the date of replacement on the
hose with a permanent marker.
Lint Filter
To avoid water spills during removal of lint filter, place a bowl or tray
under filter assembly.
The lint filter is located at the bottom right corner. Always run the unit on spin mode before removing the
lint filter to drain away residual water. Place a bowl or tray under the lint filter area to catch any residual
water.
We recommend this strongly to avoid water spills on your floor.
Open the bottom panel.
Unscrew and remove the lint filter. Run water on the filter to clean away detergent or softener residue.
Rinse with hot water, dry using a clean towel and reinsert the filter back. Turn it clock wise and lock it in
position. We recommend cleaning after every 25 full loads. It is not necessary to clean the
lint filter after every load.
Detergent Drawer
Pull the detergent drawer out. Wash all compartments under running water. Clean the recess with an old
toothbrush. Make sure all detergent accumulations are removed. Use a jet of running hot water to flush
out residues. Replace the drawer and run a rinse cycle without laundry.
