Use this cycle every 30 washes to keep the inside of your washer
fresh and clean. This cycle uses a higher water level. Use with affresh
Washer Cleaner tablet or liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the

Care."
IMPORTANT: Do not place garments or other items in the washer
during the Clean Washer cycle. Use this cycle with an empty wash tub.
