Inside
To prevent mildew from developing, remove articles from the washer as
soon as the cycle is completed.
Dry the washer top, the area around the lid opening, and the underside
of the lid. These areas should always be dry before the lid is closed.
When excessively soiled clothes have been washed, a dirty residue may
remain on the tub following the wash cycle. This can be easily removed
by wiping the tub with a liquid household cleanser and then rinsing
thoroughly with water.
This washer has a self-cleaning lint filter. Lint is collected during the wash
and rinse cycles and is automatically flushed away during the spin cycle.
If the washer drains into a sink or wash tub, remove the lint that may
collect in the sink drain or strainer.
Clean the dryer lint filter after every load. Lint build-up on the screen
restricts air flow which causes longer drying times. The filter is located
at the bottom of the door opening. Remove the lint filter by pulling
straight up. Wipe all accumulated lint from the screen. Properly
reposition lint filter after cleaning. Occasionally wash the filter using
soap and warm water. Rub lightly, rinse and dry thoroughly. This will help
remove all fabric softener build-up. Do not use dryer-applied fabric
softeners unless you follow these lint filter cleaning instructions.
Do not operate the dryer without the lint filter properly in place. The
dryer door must be closed before the dryer will operate.
Before cleaning dryer interior, unplug power cord to avoid
electrical shock hazards.
If the drum is stained from non-colourfast fabrics, clean with a damp
cloth and mild liquid household cleanser. Wipe away the cleanser residue
before drying the next load of clothes.
Do not use any type of spray cleanser when cleaning the
dryer interior. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.
The interior of the dryer cabinet and exhaust duct can gather lint and
dust over time. An excessive amount of lint build-up could result in
inefficient drying and a possible fire hazard. These areas should be
cleaned approximately every 18 months by a qualified service person.
Care and Cleaning
Clean the lint
filter after every load to avoid
fire hazard and inefficient
drying.
Do not
operate the dryer if the lint
filter is blocked, damaged
or missing. Overheating,
damage to fabrics and fire
hazard can occur.
