Cleaning the Steam and Water

Circulation Nozzles

Use a cotton swab to remove lime or detergent

buildup from the inside of the steam and water

circulation nozzles.

NEVER use a sharp or

pointed object; you could damage the nozzles.

Removing the Stain in Door Seal

NOTE: Wear rubber gloves and eye protection

while performing the following procedure:

Dilute 3/4 cup (177 ml) liquid chlorine bleach

with 1 gallon (3.8 L) of warm/hot water.

Use this solution to wipe down all surfaces

of the gasket to remove the deposits that are

causing any odor. (Be sure to fold back the

lip of the gasket to get under the edge where

residue can build up.)

Wipe the gasket with a dry cloth.

Leave the door open to allow the gasket to

dry completely.

Do not use undiluted bleach as this will damage

the gasket.Follow the manufacturer’s instructions

for proper use of bleach.

If the gasket cannot be cleaned properly, it should

be replaced.

Removing Lime Buildup

If you live in an area with hard water, lime scale

can form on internal components of the washer.

Use of a water softener is recommended in areas

with hard water. If a descaler is used, make sure

that it is suitable for use in a washer, and run the

TUB CLEAN cycle before washing clothing.
Lime scale and other spots may be removed

from the stainless steel drum using a stainless

steel cleaner. Do NOT use steel wool or abrasive

cleansers; they can damage the surface.

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:

Turn off water supply tap.
Disconnect hoses from water supply and

drain water from hoses.
Plug the power cord into a properly grounded

electrical outlet.
Add 1 gallon of nontoxic recreational vehicle

(RV) antifreeze to the empty wash drum.

Close door.
Select the spin cycle and let washer spin

for 1 minute to drain out all the water.
NOTE: Not all of the RV antifreeze will be

expelled.
