How to Perform a Tub Clean on Your Haier Washing Machine
Regular maintenance of your Haier washing machine is essential to prevent mold, mildew, and unpleasant odors. Running a 'Tub Clean' cycle periodically ensures your machine remains hygienic and functions efficiently for years to come.
Step-by-Step Haier Tub Clean Process
- Ensure the washing machine is completely empty of laundry and check the drum for any loose items like coins or pins.
- Add a high-quality washing machine descaler or a tub cleaning tablet directly into the empty drum as per the manufacturer's instructions.
- Close the door securely and turn on the power supply to the machine.
- Select the 'Tub Clean' program using the cycle selector dial or the dedicated button on the control panel.
- Press the 'Start/Pause' button to begin the cycle, which typically uses high-temperature water to sanitize the inner and outer drums.
Safe Steps to Try Before Calling a Technician
- Clean the lint filter located inside the drum or at the bottom front of the machine to prevent drainage issues.
- Wipe down the rubber door gasket (bellows) with a damp cloth to remove soap scum and trapped debris.
- Check the inlet hose filters for any sediment buildup that might be restricting water flow.
- Leave the door slightly ajar after every wash cycle to allow the drum to air dry and prevent mold growth.
Always unplug the washing machine from the power socket before inspecting the inlet filters or cleaning the drainage pump to avoid the risk of electric shock.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I run the Tub Clean cycle?
It is recommended to run the Tub Clean cycle once every 30 to 40 wash cycles, or at least once a month, to maintain optimal hygiene.
Can I use regular detergent for the Tub Clean cycle?
No, regular detergent is not effective for deep cleaning the drum. Use a specialized washing machine descaler or a tub cleaner recommended by Haier service professionals.
Why does my washing machine still smell after a Tub Clean?
If odors persist, check the drain hose for blockages or ensure the drain pipe is installed at the correct height to prevent backflow of sewer gases.
Is it safe to use vinegar for cleaning the tub?
While some use vinegar, it can potentially damage the rubber seals over time. It is safer to use a dedicated appliance descaling agent designed for washing machines.
