Care and maintenance instructions Cleaning the trap and the drain pump The washing machine has a trap where small items such as coins, buttons, and hairpins can collect. To clean the trap and the drain pump, do as follows: 1. Make sure the machine is empty of water and switched off at the main power switch. Cleaning the detergent compartment NOTE! Do not wash the detergent compartment or the insert in a dishwasher! Open the detergent compartment and remove the insert. Rinse the insert and scrub it clean with a dish brush. Wipe up any detergent left inside the detergent compartment. Replace the insert in the detergent compartment. 2. Open the door. Insert 3. Unhook the drain hose from the connector inside the door and drain the water into a suitable container, such as a shallow bowl. 4. Turn the cover counter-clockwise to open the pump. Remove the cover. 5. Remove any items and debris from the pump housing and cover. Also check that the pump impellers at the back rotate. 6. Screw on the cover, replace the drainage hose on the hatch pin, and close the hatch. Detergent compartment Cleaning the outside of the machine Clean the outside of the machine and the program panel with a mild cleaner. Do not use any solvents, as these can damage the machine. NOTE! Do not hose down the machine with water! Cleaning the inside of the machine to avoid unpleasant smells Modern detergents often allow laundry to be washed at low temperatures. This means that small deposits can build up in the machine. These, in turn, may lead to unpleasant odors developing. To avoid this, we recommend running a 203 °F (95 °C) wash program once a month. When you do this, use a small quantity of detergent. It is not necessary to put any laundry in the machine. 26 Customer Care Center 1-800-898-1879 www.askousa.com
