Inside Cleaning
(Aggressive)
In cases where the clean washer cycle along
with care and cleaning of rubber gasket folds
isn’t done, and severe odor, mold, mildew, or
residue buildup have developed, follow the
below cleaning procedure to help alleviate the
problem.
Cleaning Procedure - Washer Drum
Ensure the wash tub is empty (or no clothes
load).
1. Open the detergent drawer and place the
main detergent flap in the upper position.
Upon cycle completion inspect the interior
of the washer to see if the odor/residue has
been eliminated. If any additional cleaning is
required, repeat the above procedure. This
may take several cycles depending on the
severity of the odor/residue. You may observe
some remaining discoloration due to the long
term effects of this residue.
Care and Cleaning
IMPORTANT
Always wear rubber or latex gloves and
protect floor and clothing from damage.
2. Pour eight (8) cups of bleach into the
detergent compartment.
3. Select the clean washer
cycle by continuing to
press the specialty cycle
icon until “clean washer”
is displayed in the display
window.
4. Press Start/Pause to begin.
If odor is still left after bleach cycle(s) and
bleach cleaner, open the detergent drawer
and pour one (1) pouch of TIDE
®
WASHING
MACHINE CLEANER in detergent drawer.
Select clean washer cycle and start the
washer.
IMPORTANT
See Inside
Routine Cleaning (Preventive)
for future cleaning maintenance which is
necessary to avoid repeating issues.
Immediately follow up with a spin
cycle. Select fresh rinse on max spin
speed with no detergent or bleach to
help clear any residual bleach left after
the clean washer cycle.
For best results
WARNING
HARMFUL VAPOR HAZARD
Do not use or mix liquid chlorine bleach with
other household chemicals such as toilet
cleaners, rust removers, acid or products
containing ammonia. These mixtures can
produce dangerous fumes which can cause
serious injury or death.
For especially contaminated areas visible
inside the drum (including the front rubber
seal), these areas might be more effectively
cleaned by spraying a Bleach Cleaner on
a scrub brush, soft sponge, or towel and
scrubbing.
