MAINTENANCE
CLEANING
THE
WATER
INLET
FILTERS
If the washer
does not fill properly,
an error mes-
sage will show
on the display.
The inlet valve filter
screens
could
be plugged
by hard water
scale,
sediment
in the water
supply,
or other
debris.
NOTE: The
inlet screens
protect
the delicate
parts
of the inlet valve from
being
damaged
by particles
that
could
enter
the valves
with
the water
supply.
Operating
the washer
with
these
filters
removed
could
cause a valve to stick open
resulting
in flood-
ing and/or
property
damage.
Inlet
1. Turn
OFF both
water
faucets
completely.
Un-
screw
the hot and cold water
lines from
the back
of the washer.
IMPORTANT:
Always
use
new,
high-quality
inlet
hoses.
Aftermarket
hoses
are not guaranteed
to fit
or function
correctly.
Poor-quality
hoses
may
not
tighten
correctly
and could cause leaks. Subsequent
damage
to product
or property
will not be covered
under
the terms
of the product
warranty.
2. Carefully
remove
the filters
from the water
valves
and soak them
in white
vinegar
or a lime
scale
remover,
following
the
manufacturer's
instruc-
tions.
Be
careful
not to damage
the filters
while
cleaning.
3. Rinse thoroughly
before
reinstalling.
Press the fil-
ters back into place.
4. Before
reattaching
the hoses,
flush
the hoses and
water
lines
by running
several
gallons
of water
through
them
into
a bucket
or drain,
preferably
with
the faucets
wide
open for maximum
flow.
NOTE: An/Eerror
message
may blink on the display
when
the water
pressure
is weak
or an inlet filter
is
clogged
with
dirt. Clean the inlet filter.
_WARNING
.......
Unplug the power
cord and turn off the faucets
before
cleaning.
Failure
to do
so may
cause
electric
shock.
Do not use the washing
machine
without
the
inlet
filters.
If you
use the
washing
machine
without
the inlet filters
it will cause
leaks and
product
malfunction.
If you use the washing
machine
in an area with
hard water,
the inlet filter
may clog due to lime
buildup.
STORING
THE
WASHER
If the washer
will not be used for an extended
period of
time and is in an area that could be exposed
to freezing
temperatures,
perform
the following
steps
to pro-
tect
the washer
from damage.
1. Turn OFF the water
supply.
2. Disconnect
the hoses from
the water
supply
and
drain any water
from the hoses.
3. Plug the
power
cord
into
a properly
grounded
electrical
outlet.
4. Add
1 gallon of nontoxic
recreational
vehicle
(RV)
antifreeze
to the empty
tub and close the lid. Nev-
er use
automotive
antifreeze.
5. Press the POWER
button,
then select
SPIN ONLY.
Press
the
START/PAUSE
button
to activate
the
drain
pump.
Allow
the drain
pump to run for one
minute,
then press
the POWER
button
to shut off
the washer.
This will expel some of the antifreeze,
leaving
enough
to protect
the washer
from
dam-
age.
6. Unplug the power
cord, dry the tub interior
with
a
soft
cloth,
and close the lid.
7. Remove
the inserts
from the dispenser.
Drain any
water
in the compartments
and let them
dry.
8. Store the washer
in an upright
position.
9. To remove
the antifreeze
from
the washer
after
storage,
run a complete
Speed
Wash
cycle
using
detergent.
Do not add laundry
to this cycle.
