IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow
basic precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
2. DO NOT wash articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with
gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors
that could ignite or explode.
3. DO NOT add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash
water, or wash items that have been soak or contaminated in these substances. These substances give

Detergent Tray
The use of detergent may cause residual build up in the detergent drawer over time. We recommend
that you remove the drawer every 2 months to clean the accumulated residue.
1. Pull the tray to the out position, then press
the spot indicated by the arrow and pull to
fully remove from the washer.
2. Use a soft brush and water to clean off any
detergent residue that may have
accumulated in the tray.
3. Make sure all parts and accessories are
properly put back into the correct positions,
then slide the tray back into place in the
washer.
NOTE: DO NOT place the detergent tray
in a dishwasher for cleaning.
