TROUBLESHOOTING

Possible Causes
Check proper electrical supply.
Normal washer operation.
Washer may be tightly packed.
Not using HE detergent or using too
much HE detergent.
Small items may have been caught
in pump or between basket and tub,
which can slow draining.
Used a cycle with a low spin speed.
The washer may be tightly packed
or unbalanced.
Check plumbing for correct drain hose
installation. Drain hose extends into
standpipe farther than 4.5" (114 mm).
Plug power cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not use an extension cord.
Ensure there is power to outlet.
Reset a tripped circuit breaker. Replace any blown fuses.
NOTE: If problems continue, contact an electrician.
Lid must be closed for washer to run.
Washer will pause during certain phases of cycle.
Do not interrupt cycle.
Washer may be stopped to reduce suds.
Remove several items, rearrange load evenly in basket, and add
detergent. Close lid and press START/PAUSE/Unlock Lid.
Do not add more than 1 or 2 additional items after cycle
has started.
Do not add more water to the washer.
Only use HE detergent. Suds from regular detergents can
slow or stop the washer. Always measure detergent and follow
detergent directions based on your load requirements.
To remove suds, cancel cycle. Select Rinse & Spin. Press START/
PAUSE/Unlock Lid. Do not add more detergent.
Empty pockets and use garment bags for small items.
Cycles with lower spin speeds remove less water than cycles
with high spin speeds. Use the recommended cycle/spin speed
for your item. To remove extra water in the load, select
Drain/Spin. Load may need to be rearranged to allow even
distribution of the load in the basket.
Tightly packed or unbalanced loads may not allow the washer
to spin correctly, leaving the load wetter than normal. Evenly
arrange the wet load for balanced spinning. Select the Drain &
Spin cycle to remove excess water. See "Using Your Washer" for
loading recommendations.
Check drain hose for proper installation. Use drain hose form
and securely attach to drainpipe or tub. Do not tape over drain
opening. Lower drain hose if the end is higher than 96" (2.4 m)
above the floor. Remove any clogs from drain hose.
