Hi Wet wes,
Thank you for your interest in the LG 2.3 cu.ft. 9-Cycle Ultra Capacity Compact Washer, Model # WM1355HW. Always remove items from the washer as soon as the cycle is completed. Leaving damp items in the washer can cause wrinkling, color transfer, and odor.
Run the TUB CLEAN cycle regularly to remove detergent buildup and other residue. This washer has a special cycle, TUB CLEAN, to remove inside buildup of detergent residue which can occur in the wash tub or drum and lead to mildew or musty smell.
Open the door and remove any clothing in
the wash drum.
- Open the dispenser drawer.
- Add liquid chlorine bleach or tub cleaner to Liquid Fabric Softner compartment. Some powder or tablet tub cleaners which are manufactured for this purpose can be used.
(NOTE : Do not add any laundry detergent or fabric softener to the drawer when using TUB CLEAN.)
- If using powder cleaner add powder cleaner to the main wash compartment of the drawer.
- If using tablet cleaner add tablet cleaner to the wash drum directly.
(NOTE : Do not add tablet cleaner to the drawer.)
Close the drawer and washer door.
Select TUB CLEAN and press START.
NOTE : It is recommended that TUB CLEAN should be repeated monthly.
If mildew or musty smell already exists, run TUB CLEAN for 3 consecutive weeks.
After TUB CLEAN is complete or when the washer is not used, leave the washer door open for better
ventilation and drying inside of the washer.
To prevent floors from getting wet, you can use a drip pan or use towels...IFV
