the edges of drum.
Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects.
Clean out pockets before laundering.
Washer isn’t properly leveled. The washer may vibrate if not properly installed. See Installation
Instructions. All four washer feet should be in rm contact with
the oor.
Clothing is balled up in washer. When balled up, the load will bounce, causing the washer to
vibrate. Separate the load items and restart the washer.
Loud humming
or increased noise
during cycle
Load is packed tightly. Loading drum half full or less will improve drying performance.
Drying Results
Clothes are not drying
satisfactorily or drying
times are too long
The load is too large and heavy
to dry quickly.
Separate the load to tumble freely. Loading drum half full or
less will improve drying performance and cycle time. Run a
high-speed spin cycle.
Lint on load Area under door seal is clogged with
lint.
Gently pull back the rubber door seal and clean lint with the
textured side of an affresh
®
Machine Cleaning Wipe.
Drain pump lter is clogged with lint. Clean the drain pump lter. See “Cleaning the Drain Pump Filter/
Draining Residual Water.” This procedure should be performed
occasionally.
Dried loads are wrinkled The load was not removed from
washer at the end of the drying cycle.
Remove garments promptly at the end of the drying cycle,
or use the Wrinkle Shield
™
option (see “Using Your Washer”).
The washer was tightly packed. Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. Loading drum half full
or less will improve drying performance and cycle time. Results
may also vary depending on fabric type.
Load too hot Load removed before cool-down
portion of cycle is complete.
Allow the drying cycle to complete the cool-down portion of the
cycle before removing the load. If you cancel the cycle before
the cool-down portion of the cycle and immediately remove the
load, it will be very hot.
