ALL-IN-ONE WASHER & DRYER

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.

Machine Cleaning Wipe.

iii. Let stand 5 minutes.

iv. Wipe down area thoroughly with a dry cloth and let

machine interior air dry with door open.

IMPORTANT:

� Wear rubber gloves when cleaning with bleach.

� Refer to the bleach manufacturer's instructions for proper use.
