WASHER MAINTENANCE

WASHER CARE

Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer Clean

and Performing at Its Best

1. Always use High Efciency (HE) detergents and follow
the HE detergent manufacturer’s instructions regarding
the amount of HE detergent to use. Never use more than
the recommended amount because that may increase the
rate at which detergent and soil residue accumulate inside
your washer which, in turn, may result in undesirable odor.
2. Use warm or hot water washes sometimes (not exclusively
cold water washes) because they do a better job of
controlling the rate at which soils and detergent accumulate.
3. Always leave the washer door slightly ajar between
uses to help dry out the washer and avoid the buildup
of odor-causing residue.
4. Periodically clean residue from all interior surfaces
of the glass window. For better care, wipe the entire
inside of the glass door with a damp cloth.

Cleaning Your Front-Loading Washer

Read these instructions completely before beginning
the routine cleaning processes recommended below.
This Washer Maintenance Procedure should be performed,
at a minimum, once per month or every 30 wash cycles,
whichever occurs sooner, to control the rate at which soils
and detergent may otherwise accumulate in your washer.
Cleaning the Door Seal
1. Open the washer door and remove any clothing or items
from the washer.
2. Inspect the gray-colored seal between the door opening
and the drum for stained areas or soil buildup. Pull back
the seal to inspect all areas under the seal and to check
for foreign objects.

The error code "e1 f9" on the Maytag MHW6630HW washing machine indicates a drain pump system error. Here are the steps to troubleshoot and resolve the issue: 1. Check the plumbing for correct drain hose installation. Ensure that the drain hose extends into the standpipe no farther than 41⁄2" (114 mm). 2. Inspect the drain hose for proper installation. Make sure it is not kinked, pinched, or blocked. Remove any clogs from the drain hose. 3. Use the drain hose form and securely attach it to the drainpipe or tub. 4. Lower the drain hose if the end is higher than 96" (2.4 m) above the floor. 5. Verify that you are using HE detergent and following the manufacturer's directions based on the load size and soil level.

Is there anyway to bypass (or reset) the 3 second countdown in order to start the machine? I would like to press the start button and simply have the machine start without holding down the button and waiting for the countdown to end.
