CARE AND CLEANING
Inside Routine Cleaning (Preventive)
WARNING
HARMFUL VAPOR HAZARD
Do not use or mix liquid chlorine bleach with other
household chemicals such as toilet cleaners, rust
removers, acid or products containing ammonia. These
mixtures can produce dangerous fumes which can
cause serious injury or death.
To help prevent odors, mold or mildew, leave the door
open for a few hours after use or whenever the washer is
not in use.
TO REFRESH OR CLEAN INSIDE OF WASHER
To clean and freshen the washer, perform the system
clean cycle. For best results use the system clean cycle
once a month. To begin the cycle, press and hold the
spin speed and options buttons simultaneously for 10
seconds until the display changes to “CLn”.
REMOVE ALL ITEMS FROM WASH DRUM before fi lling
the detergent chamber with one (1) cup of liquid chlorine
bleach OR one (1) pouch of TIDE ® WASHING MACHINE
CLEANER. DO NOT use both. Press START to begin.
Í NOTE
If the system clean cycle is cancelled or paused
during the cycle, the washer will go through 2 rinse
cycles to clean the drum of any residual bleach before
unlocking the door.
Immediately follow up with a rinse &
spin cycle. Select fresh rinse on max
spin speed with no detergent or bleach
to help clear any residual bleach left
after the system clean cycle.
For best results
IMPORTANT
Items left in washer while performing the system
clean cycle will cause a severe out-of-balance situation
that could damage the washing machine.
CAUTION
ENTRAPMENT and TIP-OVER HAZARD
Do not leave the door open if there are small children
or pets present. An open door could entice children to
hang on the door or crawl inside the washer. If there
are no small children present, you may leave the door
ajar to prevent odor build up.
