for assistance and to possibly avoid a service call.
Possible Causes
Washer not level.
Fill hoses not attached tightly.
Fill hose washers
Drain hose connection
Check household plumbing
for leaks or clogged sink or drain.
Washer not loaded as
recommended.
Load not completely covered
in water.
Check for proper water supply.
Check proper electrical supply.
Water may splash off basket if washer is not level.
Tighten fill-hose connection.
Make sure all four fill hose flat washers are properly seated.
Pull drain hose from washer cabinet and properly secure it to
drainpipe or laundry tub.
Do not place tape over drain opening.
Water can backup out of a clogged sink or drainpipe. Check all
household plumbing for leaks (laundry tubs, drain pipe, water pipes,
and faucets.)
An unbalanced load can cause basket to be out of alignment and
cause water to splash off tub. See "Using Your Washer" for loading
instructions.
This is normal operation for an HE low-water washer. The load will not
be completely underwater. The washer senses load sizes and adds
correct amount of water for optimal cleaning. See "What's New under
the Lid."
IMPORTANT: Do not add more water to washer. The added water lifts
the load off the washplate, resulting in less cleaning.
Both hoses must be attached and have water flowing to
inlet valve.
Both Hot and Cold water faucets must be turned on.
Check that inlet valve screens have not become clogged.
Check for any kinks in inlet hoses, which can restrict water flow.
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.
