CARE AND CLEANING
USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
• Wipe the cabinet with a damp cloth. Occasionally
wash it with mild soap and water and then apply
a light coat of appliance polish to help preserve
the finish.
• Keep the area around and underneath your appliance
free of combustible materials such as lint, paper,
rags and chemicals.
• Keep the floor around your appliance clean and dry
to reduce the possibility of slipping.
For long vacations
Be sure water supply is shut off at faucets. Drain all
water from hoses if the appliance will be exposed to
freezing weather.
Always shut off the gas valve before leaving on
vacation.
Winterizing instructions for your washer:
The washer cannot be operated in freezing
temperatures. Before you store the appliance,
remove water from all parts of the washer.
1. Turn off water supply faucets. Disconnect hoses
from faucets and drain.
2. Add 1 gallon (3.8 liters) of nontoxic RV antifreeze
(available from a hardware or recreational vehicle
store) to the washer tub.
3. Push in the timer knob, turn the knob to the right to
a spin cycle and pull out the knob.
4. Let the washer spin for 1 or 2 minutes to let all the
water drain out. Some but not all of the RV
antifreeze will be expelled.
5. Push in the timer knob, disconnect the electrical
plug, dry the tub interior and close the lid.
6. Store the appliance in an upright position.
7. Before reusing the washer, after storage, run the
washer through a cycle to rinse out the antifreeze.
Washer
• Wash basket. After each use, leave the lid open to
allow moisture to evaporate. Clean thoroughly with
nonabrasive household cleanser to remove deposit
left by heavily soiled clothes. Do not use harsh,
gritty or abrasive cleaners.
• Lint Filter. Clean the filter at the bottom of the
agitator after every load for the best filtering results.
