REGULAR CLEANING
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
Proper care of your washer can extend its life. The
outside of the machine can be cleaned with warm
water and a mild, nonabrasive household detergent.
Immediately wipe off any spills with a soft, damp
cloth.
IMPORTANT: Do not use solvents, cleaning alco-
hols, or similar products. Never use steel wool or
abrasive cleaners because they can damage the
surface.
CARE AND CLEANING OF THE INTERIOR
Use a towel or soft cloth to wipe around the washer
lid opening and lid glass.
Always remove items from the washer as soon as
the cycle is complete. Leaving damp items in the
washer can cause wrinkling, color transfer, and odor.
Run the Tub Clean cycle once a month, or more of-
ten if needed, to remove detergent buildup and
other residue.
TUB CLEAN CYCLE
Some environmental and usage conditions can
cause a residue to build up in the tub over time and
can lead to a mildewy or musty smell. The Tub Clean
cycle is specially designed to remove this buildup us-
ing bleach or another cleaners designed specifically
for cleaning washing machines. Run the Tub Clean
cycle once a month, or more often under heavy use
conditions or if odor is present
1. Remove any clothing from the tub.
2. Fill the bleach dispenser to the MAX line with
liquid chlorine bleach. Do not overfill the bleach
dispenser. Overfilling will cause the bleach to dis-
pense immediately.
NOTE: For other tub cleaning products, follow the
cleaner manufacturer's instructions and recommen-
dations. For powdered cleaning products, add the
cleaner to the main wash compartment of the dis-
penser drawer after removing the liquid detergent
dispenser insert.

3. Close the lid and press the POWER button to turn
the washer ON. Turn the knob to select the TUB
CLEAN cycle then press the START/PAUSE but-
ton to begin the cycle. Selecting any other cycle
after Tub Clean has been selected will cause the
Tub Clean cycle to be cancelled.
4. After the cycle ends, open the lid and allow the
tub interior to dry completely.
NOTE:
y Never load laundry while using TUB CLEAN. The
laundry may be damaged or contaminated with
cleaning products. Make sure to run the Tub
Clean cycle ONLY when it is empty.
y It is recommended to leave the lid open after fin-
ishing the laundry to keep the tub clean.
y It is recommended that TUB CLEAN should be
repeated monthly.
y If mildew or musty smell already exists, run TUB
CLEAN for 3 consecutive weeks.
REMOVING MINERAL BUILDUP
If you live in an area with hard water, mineral scale
can form on internal components of the washer.
Use of a water softener is recommended in areas
with hard water.
Use a descaler, such as Washer Magic ® , to remove
visible mineral buildup. After descaling, always run
the Tub Clean cycle before washing clothing.
Mineral scale and other spots may be removed
from the stainless steel tub using a stainless steel
cleaner. Do NOT use steel wool or abrasive clean-
ers.
LEAVE THE LID OPEN
If the washer will not be used for several days, leave
the lid open overnight to allow the tub to dry.
