CARE
Recommendations
to Help Keep Your Washer Clean and
Performing at its Best
1. Always 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.
