Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance can extend the working life of this machine. You MUST disconnect the power plug from the power outlet and close both the hot and cold water valves before performing any cleaning/maintenance to your Combo Washer/Dryer. Cleaning the detergent dispenser Never use solvent based, abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals or steel wool. 1. Remove the detergent dispenser from the unit by pressing downward on the release tab (shown below) and gently sliding the dispenser drawer outward. 2. Once the dispenser drawer is removed, you can remove the fabric softener dispenser compartment by gently lifting upward. 3. Place drawer under warm tap water and dry with soft cloth. 4. Reinstall the fabric softener compartment and gently slide the dispenser drawer back into the unit. Cleaning the exterior of the unit Never use solvent based, abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or steel wool to clean your unit as they can damage the finish. The cabinet and door may be cleaned with a mild, non-abrasive detergent and lukewarm water solution. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft clean towel to prevent water spotting. During daily use it is recommended to wipe up any spills with dry soft cloth. Cleaning the interior of the unit Never use solvent based, abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or steel wool to clean the internal drum. During daily use, use a soft cloth to wipe around the door, opening, and rubber seal to remove any excess moisture and to maintain a water tight seal. To clean the interior of the unit, all clothes must be removed from the drum. For liquid chlorine, add directly to the fabric softener section. For powder tub cleaner, add directly to the main detergent section. Use only cleaners labeled as safe for washing machines. Select the cycle "Self Clean" and press "Start" to initiate the Self Clean cycle. NOTE: It is recommended that you run the Self Clean cycle regularly to help remove detergent buildup and other residue. Depending on how frequently the machine is used, you may need to run the Self Clean cycle every month. 19
