Cleaning Washer
- Tub Clean cycle: Use this cycle on its own or with an added cleaning agent such as bleach, distilled white vinegar, or a washing machine tub cleaner for an extra cleaning boost. Refer to Tub Clean section in User’s Guide for full procedure.
- Only use a damp or sudsy cloth to clean the control panel, wipe dry after. Some cleaning products may harm finish or damage interior. DO NOT use products that contain alcohol on control panel.
- Wipe washer cabinet as needed. If detergent, bleach or other products are spilled on cabinet, wipe immediately; some products could cause permanent damage.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on washer.
- Occasionally wipe down perimeter of door glass where the seal meets the glass as well as front surface of the door seal lip with a mild soap solution. If mineral build-up occurs, surface may need to be cleaned with a lime removal chemical.
- If water remains in the door seal, the drain holes at the bottom of the door opening may be plugged and will need to be cleaned out so the water can be drained properly.
- To clean dispenser: Pour hot water into dispenser drawer, making sure to flush each compartment. Use a small brush to clean out any residue.
- Cleaning Foreign Object Trap: The washer has a pump that may collect foreign objects and may need to be cleaned if water is draining slower than normal. Refer to Cleaning Foreign Object Trap section in User’s Guide for more details
