TROUBLESHOOTING
First try the solutions suggested here
for assistance and to possibly avoid a service call.
Possible Causes
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.

Remove several items, rearrange load evenly in basket. 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.
Small items may have been caught in pump or between basket
and tub, which can slow draining.
Cycles with lower spin speeds remove less water than cycles
with high spin speeds. Use the recommended cycle/speed spin
for your garment. 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.
Reduce load size to improve water removal. A tightly packed load
may not allow the washer to spin correctly, leaving the load wetter
than normal.
Check drain hose for proper installation. Use drain hose form
and securely attach to drainpipe or tub. Do not tape over drain
opening.Lowerdrainhoseiftheendishigherthan96"(2.4m)
