Pressing POWER does not turn on washer
Is the power switched on at the wall?
Unplug from wall. Wait 60 seconds, plug back in, turn on and try again.
Could household power supply be at fault? Try plugging in another appliance in the same
power socket.
Keylock Mode may be activated. Try holding down the POWER button for 3 seconds (refer to
page 18).
Pressing START/PAUSE does not start the fill
Are both hot and cold faucets turned on?
Are the inlet hose filters blocked? Check both ends of the hoses.
Is DELAY START set? (selected models only).
FILLING continuously
Ensure drain hose is located in the standpipe or tub / sink.
Ensure standpipe or tub / sink is at least 33 ½" (850 mm) high but no more than
95" (2413 mm) high.
Check that the washer is not siphoning (refer to page 9).
NOT SPINNING properly
Ensure load is not out of balance.
Check washer is level and does not rock in any direction.
Ensure washer does not have suds build up.
Check that the washer is not siphoning (refer to page 9).
SPIN SPEED sounds slower than normal
Clothes are unevenly distributed in the wash basket, your washer has slowed the spin to
compensate.
WATER LEVEL low
Your washer is designed to automatically sense load size and minimize water use, therefore
the water level may look different to your previous washer – this is normal.
WASH WATER temperature is not warm
This unique wash system uses two wash phases. The second phase may be cooler than the first
to minimize energy use. This is normal and will not affect wash performance.
Too many SOAP SUDS
Ensure that you are using a high efficiency (HE) or low suds detergent.
Try using a little less detergent, especially if garments are only lightly soiled.
