Winter storage or moving care
Install and store your washer/dryer where it
will not freeze. Because some water may
stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your
washer/dryer. If storing or moving your appli-
ance during freezing weather, winterize it.
To winterize or move washer:
1. Shut off both water faucets.
2. Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.
3. Put one quart (1L) of R.V.-type antifreeze
in the basket.
4. Unplug the power supply cord.
NOTE: If you are moving, run washer on a
drain and spin setting (see “Using Drain and
Spin”) for about 30 seconds to mix the
antifreeze and water.
Non-use or vacation care
Operate your washer/dryer only when you
are at home. If you will be on vacation or will
not be using your washer/dryer for an ex-
tended period of time, you should:
Saving energy
Washer
• Use warm or cold wash water for most
loads. Use hot water only when washing
heavy, greasy soils or whites.
• Wash full loads.
• Avoid rewashing. Use enough detergent
and pretreat stains or heavy soils. Use the
cycles and wash times recommended for
the fabric and soil.
• Use your washer during off-peak hours –
usually early morning and late evening.
(Ask your power company for details.)
C A R I N G F O R Y O U R W A S H E R / D R Y E R
•
Unplug the power supply cord or turn off
electrical power to the washer/dryer.
• Turn off the water supply to the washer.
This helps avoid accidental flooding (due
to a water pressure surge) while you
are away.
Dryer
• Use an Automatic cycle to dry most loads.
• Dry only full loads without overdrying.
• Avoid overloading dryer, adding wet items
to a partly dried load, or opening the door
unnecessarily.
• Plan your laundry to dry one load after
another. A warm dryer shortens drying
time.
•
Shorten drying times by exhausting dryer
properly and cleaning exhaust vent and
outside exhaust hood as needed.
– Keep the lint screen clean.
– Use your dryer in a room where room air
temperature is above 45°F (7°C).
– Sort loads by fabric weight and type.
To use washer again:
1. Flush water pipes and hoses.
2. Reconnect water inlet hoses.
3. Turn on both water faucets.
4. Reconnect power supply cord.
5. Run the washer through a complete cycle
with one cup (250 mL) of detergent to
clean out antifreeze.
