Vacation, Storage, and Moving Care

Install and store your washer where it will not freeze. Because
some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your
washer. If storing or moving your washer during freezing weather,
winterize it.
Non-use or vacation care:
Operate your washer only when you are at home. If you will be on
vacation or not using your washer for an extended period of time,
you should:
Unplug washer or disconnect power.
Turn off the water supply to the washer. This helps avoid
accidental flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you
are away.
Slightly open door to provide ventilation.
To winterize washer:
1. Put 1 qt (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the drum.
2. Run washer on a DRAIN/SPIN cycle.
3. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
4. Shut off both water faucets.
5. Disconnect water inlet hoses from faucets and drain.
To use washer again:
1. Flush water pipes.
2. Reconnect water inlet hoses to faucets.
3. Turn on both water faucets.
4. Plug in washer or reconnect power.
5. Run the washer through the NORMAL cycle with ¼ the
normal recommended amount of detergent to clean out
antifreeze.
To transport the washer:
1. If washer will be moved during freezing weather, put in 1 qt
(1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the drum. Run washer on a
DRAIN/SPIN cycle.
2. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
3. Disconnect the drain hose from the drain system and attach
to rear panel clips.
4. Shut off both water faucets.
5. Disconnect the water inlet hoses from faucets, then drain the
hoses and clip them to the rear panel of the washer.
6. Do not reuse transport bolts. Unit must be transported in the
upright position.
Reinstalling the washer
1. Follow the "Installation Instructions" to locate, level and
connect the washer.
2. Run the washer through the NORMAL cycle with ¼ the
normal recommended amount of detergent to clean the
washer and remove the antifreeze, if used.

TROUBLESHOOTING

First try the solutions suggested here to possibly avoid the
cost of a service call...

supply)
