CARE AND CLEANING 

Cleaning The Exterior 
As you use the washer, occasionally wipe the cabinet 
with a damp cloth or sponge; wipe dry with a soft cloth. 
Do not use polish or any kind on the plastic trim. Some 
polishes contain agents which may damage plastics. 
 
Cleaning The Interior 
If you live an area where phosphate detergents are 
banned, it may be necessary to recondition the washer 
periodically. Because a non-phosphate detergent must be 
used, body oils and detergent may accumulate in the 
washer tub. This is particularly evident in hard water  
areas  or  in  homes,  where  heavily  soiled  garments  are            
regularly laundered. 
To remove this build-up, run the washer through a    
complete cycle using hot water and 2 cups of a non    
precipitating water conditioner. Do not add any clothes, 
laundry detergent or other laundry aids. 
Once all accumulation has been removed, your laundry 
should be satisfactory if you follow the preventive     
suggestions in this guide-book. 

  General Maintenance 

After washing is complete, the water faucets should be 
turned off to relieve water pressure on the hoses. 
Wipe the inside of the washer door with a soft cloth to 
remove any remaining moisture. Periodically, a thin coat 
of paste wax should be applied to the inner door of the 
washer; especially to the area which is immediately next  
to the door window. 
This will protect the door finish from laundry aid spills 
and any discoloration which may results from these 
spills. 
The interior of the machine should be cleaned periodi-
cally by qualified service personnel.  
A internal condenser cleaning kit is available to improve 
drying time when needed (Part # 100A). 
 
Cleaning The Drain Screen 
Clean the drain screen frequently. For instruction please 
refer to page 7 of this manual.
