Maintenance Tips
-
Power Off First: Always unplug the washer before cleaning or servicing to avoid electrical shock.
-
Wipe Exterior & Controls: Clean the surface and control panel with a soft, damp cloth; don’t spray water directly onto buttons or electrical parts.
-
Clean the Inner Tub: After washing, wipe the inner tub with a mild detergent and water to remove residue, especially after loads with bleach or heavy soil.
-
Rinse Inlet Filter: Remove and clean the inlet hose filter periodically to prevent clogs and ensure proper water flow.
-
Lint & Hose Filter Care: Check and clean any built‑in lint or filter screens to help maintain drainage and performance.
-
Balance Loads: Load laundry evenly to avoid vibration or imbalance during spin cycles — uneven loads can trigger errors or noise.
-
Leave Lid Ajar After Use: Keep the lid slightly open between uses to help air circulate, dry the interior, and reduce odors.
-
Run Occasional Cleaning Cycle: Every ~30–40 loads, run an empty hot wash cycle (no laundry) to help clear detergent buildup and odors.
