How to maintain Samsung Washing Machine after use?

Please note:

• Always use HE detergent made for high-efficiency (HE) machines, and use the minimum amount (more is not necessarily better). Regular detergents produce much more suds and can cause water leakage. Over time, can build up a film on the drum and hoses that become a breeding ground for mold

• Remove finished loads immediately. Do not leave damp clothes in the machine (this provides an ideal breeding environment for bad odor and mildew)

• When not in use, leave the door of the washer open, to improve air circulation inside the machine and to prevent the buildup of mold and mildew. Clean out the washer door's rubber seal regularly by wiping with clean water  

• Clean the drain pump filter every few weeks or whenever you notice problems with water drainage, excessive vibrations, wet clothes after the final spin, longer than usual cycle time, or unusual pauses during a wash cycle. Hair, fabric, and other various bits can get clogged up in the drain pump filter, leading to sluggish drainage of water

• If there's a Clean Tub cycle, run tub cleaning every 3 months without using any detergent or putting any load
