a. Open the washer lid and remove any clothing
or items.

Description of Clean Washer Cycle Operation:
1. This cycle will fill to a water level higher than in normal
wash cycles to provide rinsing at a level above the water
line for normal wash cycle.
2. During this cycle, there will be some agitation and
spinning to increase the removal of soils.
After this cycle is complete, leave the lid open to allow
for better ventilation and drying of the washer interior.
Cleaning the Outside of the Washer
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe away any spills.
Use only mild soaps or cleaners when cleaning external
washer surfaces.
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.
NOTE: This washer does not include inlet hoses.
See the Installation Instructions for more information.

Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer
Clean and Performing at Its Best
1. Always use High Efficiency (HE) detergents and follow
the HE detergent manufacturer’s instructions regarding
the amount of HE detergent to use. Never use more than
the recommended amount because that may increase the
rate at which detergent and soil residue accumulate inside
your washer, which may result in undesirable odor.
2. Use warm and hot wash water settings sometimes
(not exclusively cold water washes), because they do
a better job of controlling the rate at which soils and
detergent accumulate.
3. Always leave the washer lid open between uses
to help dry out the washer and prevent the buildup
of odor-causing residue.
Cleaning Your Top-Loading Washer
Read these instructions completely before beginning
the routine cleaning processes recommended below.
This Washer Maintenance Procedure should be performed,
at a minimum, once per month or every 30 wash cycles,
whichever occurs sooner, to control the rate at which soils
