MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Water Inlet Hoses
Replace inlet hoses after five years of use to reduce the risk of
hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace inlet hoses if bulges,
kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
When replacing your inlet hoses:
Mark the date of replacement on the label with a permanent
marker.
Check that the old machines are not stuck on the machine inlet
valves.
Use new washers in the new inlet hoses to ensure a proper seal.
All-In-One Washer & Dryer Care
Recommendations to Help Keep Your Machine Clean and
Performing at Its Best
1. Always use High Efficiency (HE) detergents and follow the HE
detergent manufacturer's instructions regarding the amount of
HE 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 machine
which, in turn, may result in undesirable odor.
2. Use warm or hot water washes 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 machine door slightly ajar between uses to
help dry out the machine and avoid the buildup of odor-
causing residue.
4. Periodically clean residue from all interior surfaces of the
window. For better care, wipe the entire inside of the door with
a damp cloth.
Cleaning Your All-In-One Washer & Dryer
Read these instructions completely before beginning the routine
cleaning processes recommended below. This machine
maintenance procedure should be performed, at a minimum, once
per month or every 30 cycles, whichever occurs sooner, to control
the rate at which soils and detergent may otherwise accumulate in
your machine. Note that since this is an all-in-one washer & dryer
without a lint screen, you may see some more lint accumulation
on the door seal than a typical washer.
Cleaning the Door Seal
1. Open the machine door and remove any clothing or items
from the machine.
2. Inspect the gray-colored seal between the door opening and
the drum for stained areas, soil buildup, or lint. Pull back the
seal to inspect all areas under the seal and to check for
foreign objects or lint.
3. If stained areas, soil buildup, or lint are found, wipe down
these areas of the seal using either of the following two
procedures:
a. Affresh
®
Machine Cleaning Wipes Procedure:
i. When the cycle is complete, gently pull back the rubber
door seal and clean the entire surface with the textured
side of an affresh
b. Dilute Liquid Chlorine Bleach Procedure:
i. Mix a dilute bleach solution, using 3/4 cup (177 mL) of
liquid chlorine bleach and 1 gallon (3.8 L) of warm tap
water.
ii. Wipe the seal area with the dilute solution, using a
damp cloth.
