CARE AND CLEANING
Hoses connecting washer to faucet should be replaced every 5 years.
Water Supply Hoses
Ask the service technician to remove water 
from drain pump and hoses. Do not store the 
washer where it will be exposed to the weather.
GTW840 and GTW845 models only: Do not move the washer with a full tank of detergent. If moving the washer with a partially filled 
tank of detergent, do not tilt washer forward as detergent could spill from tank. If moving the washer will result in tipping the washer 
forward in any way, it is best to flush out your detergent tank. See Detergent Tank Clean-Out in this Care and Cleaning section.
Moving and Storage
Be sure water supply is shut off at faucets. Drain all water from hoses and water filter pump area if weather will be below freezing.
Long Vacations
Dispenser Drawer
After some period of use, a small amount of detergent or softener 
residue may be present in the dispenser drawer. The drawer can 
easily be removed for cleaning. To remove the drawer, pull it out 
until the drawer stops and then lift up on the front of the drawer. 
The drawer can then be removed from the dispenser box. Wash 
the drawer in warm, soapy water using a mild detergent. Rinse 
drawer with warm water. If siphon caps are removed for cleaning, 
be sure to push siphon caps fully back into place after cleaning.
The dispenser drawer and siphon caps are not dishwasher 
safe. The dispenser box is not removable, but it can be wiped 
clean using a damp cloth if necessary. Do not attempt to 
remove the dispenser box for cleaning.
Detergent Tank Clean-Out
(GTW840 and GTW845 models only)
NOTE: All clothes should be removed from the washer prior to 
cleaning out the detergent tank.
To empty out the tank and remove any remaining detergent 
from the reservoir:
1.  Press and hold both the Detergent Dispense and Select 
buttons for three seconds.
2.  The empty out routine will begin with the contents of tank, 
mixed with water, being dispensed into the basket and 
consequently drained from the machine at the same time.
3.  The empty out routine will continue for approximately 15 
minutes unless it is paused by the pressing of the Start 
button. If tank is initially full, routine may need to be run a 
second time to empty detergent tank.
NOTE: Optionally, hot water can be added to the tank to aid in 
flushing out the system of any residual detergent prior to starting 
or during the cleanout routine.
GTW840 and GTW845 models 
have a small dispenser drawer 
with one compartment for 
softener/conditioner only.
GTW720 and GTW725 models 
have a large dispenser drawer 
with compartments for both 
detergent and softener.
