TROUBLESHOOTING
If you experience Possible causes Solution
Washer Not Performing As Expected (cont.)
Washer not draining/
spinning, loads are
still wet, or spin light
remains on (indicating
that the washer was
unable to pump out
water within 10 minutes)
(cont.)
Check plumbing for correct drain
hose installation. Drain hose
extends into standpipe further
than 4.5" (114 mm).
Check drain hose for proper installation. Use drain hose form
and securely attach to drain pipe or tub. Do not tape over drain
opening. Lower drain hose if the end is higher than 96" (2.4 m)
above the oor. Remove any clogs from drain hose.
Too much detergent causing suds to
slow or stop draining and spinning.
Always measure and follow detergent directions for your load.
To remove extra suds, select Rinse & Spin.
Do not add detergent.
Dry spots on load
after cycle
High speed spins extract more
moisture than your previous washer.
The high spin speeds combined with air ow during the nal spin
can cause items near the top of the load to develop dry spots
during the nal spin. This is normal.
Added extra garments to the load
after the sensing/ll phase.
Add only one or two additional garments after washer has
started.
Incorrect or wrong
wash or rinse
temperatures
Check for proper water supply. Make sure hot and cold inlet hoses are not reversed.
Both hoses must be attached to both washer and faucet,
and have both hot and cold water owing to inlet valve.
Check that inlet valve screens are not clogged.
Remove any kinks in hoses.
Energy saving controlled
wash temperatures.
This washer uses cooler wash and rinse water temperatures
than traditional top-load washers. This includes cooler hot and
warm washes.
Load not rinsed Check for proper water supply. Make sure hot and cold inlet hoses are not reversed.
Both hoses must be attached and have water owing to the
inlet valve.
Both hot and cold water faucets must be on.
Inlet valve screens on washer may be clogged.
Remove any kinks in the inlet hose.
Not using HE detergent or using too
much HE detergent.
The suds from too much detergent can keep washer from
operating correctly. Always measure detergent and follow
detergent directions based on load size and soil level.
Washer not loaded as recommended. The washer is less efcient at rinsing when load is tightly packed.
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall.
Load with dry items only.
Use cycle designed for the fabrics being washed.
Add only one or two additional garments after washer has
started.
Use Bulky Items cycle for higher water ll, or set Water Level
knob to Deep Water Wash setting. See “Cycle Guide” to match
your load with the best cycle.
Sand, pet hair, lint,
etc. on load after
washing
Heavy sand, pet hair, lint, and
detergent or bleach residues may
require additional rinsing.
Add 2 Rinses to the selected cycle and/or use PowerWash cycle
or Deep Water Wash option.
Load is tangling Washer not loaded as recommended. See “Using Your Washer” section.
Select a cycle with a slower wash action and spin speed;
however, items will be wetter than those using a higher speed
spin. Use Bulky Items cycle for higher water ll, or set Water
Level knob to Deep Water Wash setting. See the “Cycle Guide”
to match your load with the best cycle.
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall.
Reduce tangling by mixing types of load items. Use the
recommended cycle for the type of garments being washed.
First try the solutions suggested here to possibly avoid the cost of a service call.
