Do not overload washer.
Rearrange load to allow proper spin.
Straighten drain hose.
Check water pressure at another faucet in house. Wait for
water supply and pressure to increase.
Fully open hot and cold water supply faucets.
Water pressure must be at least 20 psi (138 kPa). Avoid
running water elsewhere when washer is filling.
Disconnect water fill hoses from faucet. Clean and
reposition screen filters. Reconnect water fill hoses.
Straighten hoses.
Select higher water level/load size. Add water by turning
selector to RESET and back to larger load size.
Do not overload washer. Largest dry load level should not
be higher than bottom of fabric softener dispenser or top of
agitator.
You may need to raise the temperature on your water
heater. Check your water heater manufacturer's
recommendations, as well as local codes for assistance.
Avoid using hot water elsewhere before or during washer
use, or there may not be enough hot water for proper
cleaning. If problem continues, enlarge capacity of hot
water system, or use for only one application at a time.
Clean and straighten drain hose.
Check and tighten all hose/faucet connections. Install
rubber sealing washers provided.
Unclog drain pipes. Call plumber if necessary.
Always use RESET on water level switch when changing
water level. Do not hold switch at RESET; return switch to
desired load size.
Use less detergent.
Check hose connections. Connect hot water hose to hot
water faucet; connect cold water hose to cold water faucet.
Recommended standpipe height is 36" (91.44 cm); for low
