Operate your washer only when you are home. If moving,
or not using your washer for a period of time, follow these
steps:
1. Unplug or disconnect power to washer.
2. Turn off water supply to washer to avoid flooding due
to water pressure surges.
WINTER STORAGE CARE
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage, install and store washer
where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in
hoses, freezing can damage washer. If storing or moving
during freezing weather, winterize your washer.
To winterize washer:
1. Shut off both water faucets, disconnect and drain water
inlet hoses.
2. Put 1 qt. (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in washer drum and
run washer on RINSE/DRAIN & SPIN cycle for about
1 minute to mix antifreeze and remaining water.
3. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
