WASHER CARE
Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer Clean
and Performing at its Best
1. Always use High Ef ciency (HE) detergents and follow
the detergent manufacturer’s instructions regarding the
amount of 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 and hot wash water settings 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 lid open between uses to help
dry out the washer and prevent the buildup of odor-
causing residue.
Cleaning Your Top Loading Washer
Read these instructions completely before beginning the
routine cleaning processes recommended below. This washer
maintenance procedure should be performed, at a minimum,

sooner, to control the rate at which soils and detergent may
otherwise accumulate in your washer.

your desired soak time has elapsed, press START/PAUSE/
UNLOCK LID/CANCEL again to continue the cycle. As long
as the lid remains closed, your soak time can be longer than
10 minutes. However, if the lid is opened during the soak and
remains open for more than 10 minutes, the water will pump
out automatically.
