Possible Causes
Heavy sand, pet hair, lint, and
detergent or bleach residues
may require additional rinsing.
Washer not loaded as recommended.
Added more water to washer.
Washer not loaded as recommended.
Adding detergent on top of load.
Not washing like colors together.
Not using HE detergent or using too
much HE detergent.
Not using correct cycle for fabric type.
Not using dispenser.
Clogged dispensers or laundry
products dispensing too soon.
Liquid chlorine bleach not used in
dispenser or Oxi option not selected.
Add an Extra Rinse to the selected cycle.
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. See the
"Cycle Guide" to match your load with the best cycle.
Load items in loose heaps evenly around the washplate.
Reduce tangling by mixing types of load items. Use the
recommended cycle for the type of items being washed.
Washer senses load size and adds correct amount of water. This is
normal and necessary for clothes to move. It is normal for the wash
load to be not completely covered in water. Added water lifts the
laundry off the washplate, resulting in less effective cleaning.
Washer is less efficient at cleaning when tightly packed.
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the washplate.
Add only 1 or 2 additional garments after the washer is started.
Add detergent, Oxi products, and color-safe bleach to the bottom
of the basket before adding the load items.
Wash like colors together and remove promptly after the cycle is
complete to avoid dye transfer.
The suds from regular detergent can keep the washer from
operating correctly.
Use only HE detergent. Be sure to measure correctly.
Always measure detergent and follow manufacturer's directions
based on load size and soil level.
Use a higher soil level cycle option and warmer wash temperature
to improve cleaning.
Use Power Wash cycle for tough cleaning. See the "Cycle Guide"
®
to match your load with the best cycle.
Use dispenser to avoid chlorine bleach and fabric softener staining.
Load dispenser before starting a cycle.
Do not add products directly onto the load.
Do not overfill dispenser. Overfilling causes immediate dispensing.
Load dispensers before starting a cycle.
It is normal for small amounts of water to be remain in dispenser
at the end of the cycle.
Homes with low water pressure may result in residual powder in the
dispenser. To avoid, select a warmer wash temperature if possible,
depending on your load.
Clean dispenser nozzle and make sure drawer is properly seated.
Use only liquid chlorine bleach in the bleach dispenser.
You may only place Oxi products directly in the Oxi dispenser.
If using Oxi products, be sure to select Oxi option. Do not use
both liquid chlorine bleach and Oxi product in the same load.
