2. Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.
3. Put 1 quart of R.V.-type antifreeze

in the basket.

4. Run washer on a spin setting for about

30 seconds to mix the antifreeze and

water. Some of the mixture will pump

out while the washer spins.

5. Unplug the power supply cord.

To use laundry center again;

1. Flush water pipes and hoses.

2. Reconnect water inlet hoses.
3. Turn on both water faucets.

4. Reconnect power supply cord.

5. Run the washer through a complete

cycle with 1 cup of detergent to ciean
out antifreeze.

tion or not using your laundry center for
