Use Power Wash cycle for tough cleaning.
Add an extra rinse for heavily soiled loads.
Washer not performing as expected (cont.)
Washer not loaded as recommended.
Not cleaning or
removing stains
Add load loosely. Items need to move freely for best cleaning. See
the “Cycle Guide” for load size recommendations for each cycle.

Not using HE detergent or using too
much HE detergent.
Use only HE detergent. Always measure detergent and follow

Hard water or high level of iron (rust)
in water.
You may need to install a water softener and/or iron filter.
Fabric softener dispensing ball used. Dispensing balls will not operate correctly with this washer.
Add liquid fabric softener to the fabric softener compartment.
Powdered detergent used for
low-speed cycle.
Consider using liquid detergent.
Load is wrinkled,
twisted, or tangled
Washer not loaded as recommended.
Add load loosely. Items need to move freely to reduce wrinkling and
tangling. See the “Cycle Guide” for load size recommendations for
each cycle.
Reduce tangling by mixing types of load items. Use the
recommended cycle for the type of garments being washed.
Select a lower soil level. Note that items will not be cleaned as
deeply as when using a higher soil level.
Wash action too long for load.
Unload the washer as soon as it stops or use the Fresh Hold
®
option if you will not be able to unload the washer at the end
of the cycle.
The washer is not unloaded promptly.
Use the Delicates cycle or another cycle with a low spin speed to
reduce wrinkling.
Not choosing the right cycle for the load
being washed.
If safe for load, use warm or hot wash water.The wash water was not warm enough
to relax wrinkles.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The load may be out of balance.
When load unbalance occurs, a washing process will start
to redistribute the load. This may lengthen the cycle time. Avoid
washing single items. Balance a single item such as a rug or jeans
jacket with a few extra items.
Select a lower spin speed. Note that items will be wetter than when
using a higher speed spin.
Spin speed too high for load.
