WASHER MAINTENANCE
CLEANING YOUR WASHER
Keep your washer as clean and fresh as your clothes.
To keep washer interior odor-free, follow this
recommended monthly cleaning procedure:
1. Make sure the washer is empty.
2. Using recommended AFFRESH
® washer cleaner,
add one tablet to washer drum.
OR
If using liquid chlorine bleach, add 1 cup (250 mL) to
liquid chlorine bleach dispenser.
IMPORTANT: Do not add detergent to CLEAN
WASHER with AFFRESH ™ cycle. Do not use more than
recommended amount of bleach to avoid damaging
product over time.
3. Close washer lid.
4. Press POWER/CANCEL.
5. Select CLEAN WASHER with AFFRESH
™ cycle.
6. Press START/PAUSE. Water will pour into washer
for a moment and pause, lid will lock, then cycle
will continue.
NOTE: For best results, do not interrupt cycle. If cycle
must be interrupted, press START/PAUSE twice and run a
RINSE AND SPIN cycle to ensure cleaner or bleach have
been rinsed from washer.
To clean exterior:
1. Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills.
2. Use all-purpose surface cleaner, if needed.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the washer’s finish,
do not use abrasive products.
Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk
of hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace inlet hoses
if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
When replacing your inlet hoses, mark the date of
replacement on the label with a permanent marker.

and snaps.
If lid is left open for more than 10 minutes the water will
pump out.
