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.
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
recommend 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
unsatisfactory conditions, including unpleasant odor and/or
permanent stains on the washer or washload.
