ARE AND LEANING
Turn off the water faucets after finishing the day's
washing. This will shut off the water supply to the clothes
washer and prevent the unlikely possibility of damage from
escaping water. Leave the door open to allow the inside of
the washer to dry out.
Use a soft cloth to wipe up all detergent, bleach or other
spills as they occur.

LEANING THE NTERIOR
Clean the interior of the washer periodically to remove any
dirt, soil, odor, mold, mildew or bacteria residue that may
remain in the washer as a result of washing clothes. We rec-
ommend taking the following steps every 60 to 120 days to
clean and freshen your washer interior. The frequency with
which the washer should be cleaned and freshened depends
on factors such as usage, the amount of dirt, soil or bacteria
being run through your washer, or the use of cold water.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in unsatisfac-
tory conditions, including unpleasant odor and/or permanent
stains on the washer or washload.

LEANING THE ISPENSER
The dispenser may need to be cleaned periodically due to
laundry additive build-up. For easy clean-up of the dispenser,
grasp the removable two-compartment container (for bleach
and softener) as shown in illustration #1. As you begin to lift
the two-compartment container, tilt slightly inward, according
to illustration #2 and remove from the main dispenser.
Once the two-compartment container is removed from the
main dispenser, take it to a sink. Follow illustration #3 to
NOTE: Do not use any cleaning substance but water in the main dispenser. It is possible for cleaning substances to
drain into the tub. If this should happen, set the washer for a rinse and spin cycle to remove any cleaning substance from
the washer before doing a load of laundry.
