Cleaning the exterior
Turn off the water faucets after finishing the day’s washing.
This will shut off the water supply to your Washer and prevent
the unlikely possibility of damage from escaping water. Leave
the door open to allow the inside of your Washer to dry out.
Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent, bleach or other spills as
they occur.
Clean the following as recommended:
Control Panel – Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use
abrasive powders or cleaning pads. Do not spray cleaners
directly on the panel.
Cabinet – Clean with soap and water.
Cleaning the interior
Clean the interior of your Washer periodically to remove any dirt,
soil, odor, mold, mildew, or bacterial residue that may remain in
your Washer as a result of washing clothes.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in unpleasant
conditions, including odors and/or permanent stains on your
Washer or laundry.
Hard water deposits may be removed, if needed. Use a cleaner
labeled “Washer safe”.

due to laundry additive buildup.
