Check proper electrical supply.
Normal washer operation.
Washer may be tightly packed.
Error code.
Small items may have been caught
in pump or between basket and tub,
which can slow draining.
Use 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).
Too much detergent causing suds to
slow or stop draining and spinning.
High-speed spins extract more
moisture than traditional top-load
washers.
Plug power cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not use an extension cord.
Ensure there is power to outlet and that the polarity is correct.
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.
Press START (PAUSE/UNLOCK) for 3 seconds and wait for lid to
unlock. Remove several items, rearrange load evenly in basket,
and add detergent. Close lid and press START.
Do not add more than 1 or 2 additional items after cycle has
started to avoid tightly packing or unbalancing.
Try unplugging washer for 10 seconds and plug it back in to
reset the control.
Check for proper water supply per above.
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 garment. To remove extra water in the load on a nonpay
model, select Final 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 on a nonpay model.
Select the Final 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.
Always measure and follow detergent directions for your load.
To remove extra suds on a nonpay model, select Rinse & Spin.
Do not add detergent.
The high spin speeds combined with airflow during the final spin
can cause items near the top of the load to develop dry spots
during the final spin. This is normal.
