allow moisture to evaporate. If you want to clean the
basket use a clean soft cloth dampened with liquid
detergent, then rinse. (Do not use harsh or gritty
cleaners.)

Hoses connecting washer to faucet should
be replaced every 5 years.
Lint Filter:
The lint filter is located under the agitator.
It is self-cleaning and requires no maintenance.

Immediately wipe off any spills. Wipe with
damp cloth. Try not to hit surface with sharp objects.
