• Use Max Extract Spin Speed option.
• Try using a high efficiency detergent to reduce sudsing.
• Load is too small. Very small loads (one or two items) may not be balanced and may not spin out
completely.
• Make sure door is firmly closed.
• Make sure hose connections are tight.
• Make sure end of drain hose is correctly inserted and secured to drain facility.
• Avoid overloading.
• Use high efficiency detergent to prevent over-sudsing.
• Check fuse or reset circuit breaker.
• Straighten drain hoses. Eliminate kinked hoses. If there is a drain restriction, call for service.
• Close the door and push the Start/Pause touchpad. For your safety, washer will not tumble or spin
unless the door is closed.
• After pressing the Start/Pause touchpad, it will take 30 seconds before the clothes washer begins to
spin. The door must lock before spin can be achieved.
• See "Tub is Completely Full of Suds" below.
• Plug cord into live electrical outlet.
• Check fuse or reset circuit breaker.
• Close door and push the Start/Pause touchpad to start the clothes washer. For your safety, washer
will not tumble or spin unless door is closed.
• This may be a pause or soak period in the cycle. Wait briefly and it may start.
• Check screens on inlet hoses at the faucets for obstructions. Clean screens periodically.
• Run the clothes washer through another complete cycle using cold water.
• Reduce detergent amount for that specific load size, soil level and water hardness.
• Use high efficiency or low sudsing detergent specially formulated for front load washers.
• Turn both faucets on fully.
• Make sure temperature selection is correct.
• Make sure hoses are connected to correct faucets. Flush water lines.
• Check the water heater. It should be set to deliver a minimum 120°F (49°C) hot water at the tap.
Also check water heater capacity and recovery rate.
• Disconnect hoses and clean screens. Hose filter screens may be plugged.
• When warm rinse is selected, only the final rinse will be warm. The first two
rinses will be cold.
• As the washer is filling, the water temperature may change as the automatic temperature control
feature checks incoming water temperature. This is normal.
• The washer features an automatic temperature control to provide a warm wash of approximately
105˚ F and cold wash of approximately 65˚ F. While the washer is filling, you may notice only hot
and/or only cold water going through the dispenser when cold or warm wash temperatures are
selected. This is a normal function of the automatic temperature control feature as the washer deter-
mines the temperature of the water.
