How should I care for and maintain the washer?

Leave the lid open after washing to allow moisture to evaporate, and clean the wash basket with a soft cloth dampened with liquid detergent if needed. The lint filter is self-cleaning and requires no maintenance. Fill hoses connecting the washer to the faucet should be replaced every 5 years, and any spills on the exterior should be wiped off immediately with a damp cloth. (Page 7)
