Washers can be damaged if water is not removed from hoses
and interna! components before storage. Prepare the washer
for storage as follows:

• Select the Qyick Wash cycle and add bleach to the

automatic dispenser. Run the washer through the cycle
without a load.

• Turn the water faucets off and disconnect the inlet hoses.

Disconnect the clothes washer from the electrical sup­
ply and leave the washer door open to let air circulate
inside the tumbler.

If the washer has been stored in below-freezing tem­
peratures, allow time for any water left over in the

washer to thaw out before use.
