Cleaning the Door Seal

Clean the door seal once a month to prevent build-up of dirt.

Caution
  • Cleaning the door seal with undiluted bleach may cause malfunction of the door seal and washer parts. You must add water to the bleach before using it.

  • Wear rubber gloves and protective goggles.

  • Dilute 3/4 cup (177 mL) of liquid chlorine bleach in 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water.

  • Wipe around the door seal.

    • Soak a sponge or a soft cloth in this diluted solution and wipe all around the door seal.

  • Wipe up any moisture with a dry towel or cloth after cleaning.

  • Leave the door open to allow the door seal to dry completely.
