Dispensers:
Remove detergent dispensers and fabric softener trays (if removable).
Soak them in hot soapy water, then scrub with a brush to remove residue.
Rinse thoroughly and dry before replacing.
Filters:
Check your washing machine’s manual for the location of the filter.
Clean the filter according to the manufacturer’s instructions to remove lint, dirt, and debris that can accumulate.
3. Run a Maintenance Wash:
Front-Loading Machines:
After cleaning, run a hot water wash cycle with 1 cup of baking soda instead of detergent.
This helps to neutralize odors and disinfect the drum.
Top-Loading Machines:
Repeat the hot water wash cycle with vinegar or bleach once a month to keep the machine clean and fresh.
4. Exterior and Control Panel:
Wipe down the exterior of the machine, including the control panel, with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
Dry with a clean cloth to prevent water spots.
5. Regular Maintenance Tips:
Leave the door or lid open after each use to allow the drum to dry completely and prevent mold growth.
Clean the door seal and detergent drawers regularly to prevent buildup.
Use the appropriate amount of detergent and avoid overloading the machine to prevent residue buildup.
