Liquid bleach dispenser Always measure bleach. Do not guess. Never use more than 1 cup (250 ml) for a full load. Use less with lower water level settings. Follow directions on bottle for safe use.

Undiluted bleach will damage any fabric it touches. 3. Start the washer.
Caring for your washer WHEN NOT WASHING, keep both water taps turned off. This takes the pressure off the water inlet valve and hoses. WIPE UP SPILLS with a soft damp cloth as soon as they occur. This will help keep your washer looking like new. REMOVE SHARP OBJECTS such as pins, buckles, etc., from clothes before washing. Close metal zippers. SHARP OR HEAVY OBJECTS should never be put on or in the washer. Check pocket for bolts, nuts, tools, etc.
Winterizing Because some water stays in the washer, freezing can cause a lot of damage. If your washer is stored or moved during the cold weather... 1. Shut off both water taps. Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses. 2. Put a quart of R.V. type antifreeze in the basket, 3. Set the washer for a DRAIN and SPIN (see page t2). Let it run for about 30 seconds to mix the antifreeze and water. ON To use the washer again... 1. Flush water pipes and hoses. 2. Connect hoses to the washer. 3.
If you need service or assistance, we suggest you follow these steps: 1. Before calling for assistance... Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind. If your washer does not fill: Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit with the proper voltage? l Are both water taps open? l Have you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box? l Are the water supply hoses kinked? l Is the Cycle Control Knob set and pulled out? 2.
