WASHER CARE (cont.)
Cancellation of Clean Washer Cycle Operation:
If the Clean Washer cycle is canceled by the user after it has
been initiated, it may take up to 30 minutes for the washer
to purge any affresh
®
, chlorine bleach, or other chemistry
from the wash system and to adequately rinse any remaining
chemistry. The washer door will remain locked until the
cancellation process has been completed. This ensures no
cleaning chemistry will be carried over to the next wash cycle
and reduces the potential for damage to subsequent loads of
laundry or to the washer itself.
Clean Washer Cycle Cancellation Procedure:
1. Press the POWER/CANCEL button on the washer once.
2. The washer will begin to drain and rinse away the
remaining cleaning chemistry.
3. The cycle will complete the cancellation process in
approximately 30 minutes or less.
4. The washer then can be used to either repeat the Clean
Washer cycle or to wash laundry using one of the regular
wash cycles selected by the user.
Cleaning the Dispensers
After a period of using your washer, you may nd some
residue buildup in the washer’s dispensers. To remove
residue from the dispensers, remove the drawer and wipe
the surfaces with a damp cloth and towel dry either before
or after you run the Clean Washer cycle. Use an all-purpose
surface cleaner, if needed.
IMPORTANT: Dispenser is not dishwasher safe.
Cleaning the Outside of the Washer
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills.
Occasionally wipe the outside of your washer to help
keep it looking new. Use mild soap and water.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging the washer’s nish,
do not use abrasive products.
