Washer Maintenance

WATER INLET HOSES

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.

WASHER CARE

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 in turn may result in undesirable odor.
2. Use warm or hot water washes 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 door slightly ajar between
uses to help dry out the washer and avoid the buildup
of odor-causing residue.
4. Periodically clean residue from the underside of the glass
window.

routine cleaning processes recommended below. This

and detergent may otherwise accumulate in your washer.

from the washer.
2. Inspect the colored seal between the door opening and
the drum for stained areas or soil buildup. Pull back the
seal to inspect all areas under the seal and to check for
foreign objects.
