Cleaning the exterior
Use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills such as
detergent or bleach. Occasionally wipe the outside of your
washer to keep it looking new.
Cleaning the interior
To clean your washer interior, add 1 cup (250 mL) of chlorine
bleach and 1 scoop or capful of detergent into your dispenser,
and run the washer through any cycle using hot water. Repeat
this process if necessary.
NOTE: Remove any hard water deposits using only cleaners
labeled as washer safe,
Fabric softener and liquid chlorine bleach dispensers
Remove the cover that houses both the fabric softener and liquid
chlorine bleach dispensers. Use a soft cloth with a mild detergent

inside surfaces of the cover. Reinstall the cover before washing
your next load.
