minder mode or manually select the cycle by follow-
ing these directions:

erating Instructions and select CLEAN WASHER. The

ENTRAPMENT and TIP-OVER HAZARD
An open door could entice children to hang on the
door or crawl inside the washer. If there are no small
children present, you may leave the door ajar to
prevent mildew and odor build up.
If installed, remove the “MAIN WASH - LIQUID ONLY”
cup from the dispenser. REMOVE ALL ITEMS FROM
WASH DRUM before fi lling the “MAIN WASH” deter-
gent chamber with one (1) cup of liquid chlorine bleach
OR one (1) pouch of TIDE® WASHING MACHINE
CLEANER. DO NOT use both. Press start to begin.
Immediately follow up with a Spin Only
cycle. Select fresh rinse on max spin
speed with no detergent or bleach to help clear any
residual bleach left after the CLEAN WASHER cycle.
For best results
NOTE
If the CLEAN WASHER cycle is cancelled or paused
during the cycle, the washer will go through 2 rinse
cycles to clean the drum of any residual bleach before
unlocking the door.
WARNING
HARMFUL VAPOR HAZARD
Do not use or mix liquid chlorine bleach with
other household chemicals such as toilet
cleaners, rust removers, acid or products
containing ammonia. These mixtures can
produce dangerous fumes which can cause
serious injury or death.
