Maintenance
Self Clean
Certain usage and environmental conditions may result in some residue build-up or odor in the
washer tub. To prevent this build-up or odor and keep your washer tub fresh and clean, perform
the SELF CLEAN cycle at least once a month or every 20 cycles. Perform the recommended
procedure below when using the SELF CLEAN cycle.
1. Remove all items from the washer tub and ensure the tub is empty. Laundry left in the
tub during the SELF CLEAN cycle may be damaged.
2. Press POWER.
3. Turn the Cycle Selector to SELF CLEAN.
4. Press START/PAUSE. SELF CLEAN begins.
NOTE
• The water temperature for SELF CLEAN is defaulted to Hot. This temperature cannot be
changed.
• In the case where residue is present in the washer tub, add 1 cup (8 fl.oz, 240 ml) of liquid
chlorine bleach to the bleach compartment before you start the SELF CLEAN cycle. Do not
use or mix any other detergent or chemicals during the SELF CLEAN cycle.
• If necessary, run a RINSE+SPIN Cycle after the SELF CLEAN cycle has completed to help
remove any remaining residue.
CAUTION
• Check the washer tub before using the SELF CLEAN cycle. Remove any remaining water
in the tub by running a Spin Only cycle prior to starting the SELF CLEAN cycle.
• If there is chlorine bleach left in the washer tub for an extended period of time, rust can
occur.
SELF CLEAN reminder
• After 20 washing cycles, the SELF CLEAN LED reminder icon and the SELF CLEAN cycle
LED will blink on the control panel for an hour and then turn off automatically.
• The reminder will appear on the control panel for 5 additional consecutive cycles
before turning off. The next reminder will not appear until another 20 cycles have been
completed.
