Possible Causes
• Incorrect or too much detergent
has been used.
• Inside of tub not cleaned
properly.
• This is normal.
• Washer not unloaded promptly.
• Washer overloaded.
• Hot and cold water inlet hoses
are reversed.
• This is normal.
• Refer to the instruction manual
for the Remote Laundry Monitor.
• Load is too small.
• Load is out of balance.
• The washer has an imbalance
detection and correction system.
If individual heavy articles are
loaded (bath mat, bath robe, etc.)
and the imbalance is too great,
the washer will make several
attempts to restart the spin cycle.
If an imbalance is still detected,
the washer will stop and the error
code will be displayed.
Solutions
• Use only HE (High-Efficiency) detergent in
accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
• Run the TUB CLEAN cycle regularly. Be sure
to wipe around and under the door seal
frequently.
• Because it uses pressurized steam, the
washer requires very small amounts of steam
to achieve optimal results. Excess steam
could damage fabrics and reduce efficiency.
• Always remove items from the washer as
soon as the cycle is completed.
• The washer can be fully loaded, but the drum
should not be tightly packed with items. The
door of the washer should close easily.
• Hot water rinse can set wrinkles in garments.
Check the inlet hose connections.
• The drum light shuts off automatically when
the washer starts. Press and hold the
RINSE+SPIN button for 3 seconds to turn on
the light; it will turn off automatically after 4
minutes.
• Refer to the instruction manual for the
Remote Laundry Monitor.
• Add 1 or 2 similar items to help balance the
load.
• Rearrange items to help balance the load.
