CLEANING THE DOOR SEAL/BELLOW
1. Open the washer door and remove any clothing or items from the washer.
2. Inspect the gray colored seal/bellow between the door
opening and the basket for stained areas. Pull back the
seal/bellow to inspect all areas under the seal/bellow and to
check for foreign objects.
3. If stained areas are found, wipe down these areas of the seal/bellow, using the procedure
that follows.
a) Mix a dilute solution, using ¾ cup (177 mL) of liquid chlorine bleach, and 1 gal. (3.8 L) of
warm tap water.
b) Wipe the seal/bellow area with the dilute solution, using a damp cloth.
c) Let stand 5 minutes.
d) Wipe down area thoroughly with a dry cloth and let the washer interior air dry with door
open.
IMPORTANT:
• Wear rubber gloves when cleaning for prolonged periods.
• Refer to the bleach manufacturer’s instructions for proper use.
STORING YOUR WASHER
Washers can be damaged if water is not removed from hoses and internal components before storage.
Prepare your Washer for storage as follows:
• Select the Quick Wash cycle and add bleach to the automatic dispenser. Run your Washer through the
cycle without a load.
• Turn the water faucets off and disconnect the inlet hoses.
• Unplug your Washer from the electrical outlet and leave your Washer door open to let air circulate inside
the tumbler.
• If your Washer has been stored in below–freezing temperatures, allow time for any leftover water in your
Washer to thaw out before use.
