Care and Cleaning.
Cleaning the Interior
of the Washer
To clean the interior of the washer, select
the
Basket Clean
feature on the control
panel. This
Basket Clean
cycle should be
performed, at a minimum, once per month.
This cycle will use more water, in addition to
bleach, to control the rate at which soils and
detergents may accumulate in your washer.
NOTE:
Read the instructions below
completely before starting the
Basket Clean
cycle.
1.
Remove any garments or objects from
the washer and ensure the washer
basket is empty.
2.
Open the washer door and pour
one cup or 250 ml of liquid bleach
or other washing machine cleaner
into the basket.
3.
Close the door and select the
Basket
Clean
cycle. Push the
Start
pad.
4.
When the
Basket Clean
cycle is working,
the display will show the estimated cycle
time remaining. The cycle will complete
in about 90 minutes. Do not interrupt the
cycle.
5.
After the cycle is complete, leave
the door open slightly for better
ventilation.
If for any reason the cycle needs to
be interrupted, the door will not open
immediately. Forcing open the door at
this stage may cause water to flood.
The door will open after the water is
drained to a level where it would not
flood the floor.
Basket Clean
may be interrupted
by pressing the
Start
pad in between cycles.
A power outage in the house might also
interrupt the cycle. When the power supply
is back, the
Basket Clean
cycle resumes
where it had stopped. When interrupted, be
sure to run a complete
Basket Clean
cycle
before using the washer. If the
Power
pad is
pressed during
BasketClean
, the cycle will
be lost.
IMPORTANT:
Run
Basket Clean
with 1 Cup (250 ml) of
bleach once a month.
After the completion of a
Basket Clean
cycle, the interior of your washer may
have a bleach smell.
It is recommended to run a light color
load after the
Basket Clean
cycle.
