is normal and necessary for clothes to move.

garments off the washplate, resulting in less effective cleaning.

not load garments directly over the center of the washplate.

The suds from regular detergent can prevent washer from
operating correctly.
Use only HE detergent. Be sure to measure correctly.
Always measure detergent and follow detergent directions based
on load size and soil level.
Use a higher soil level cycle option and warmer wash
temperature to improve cleaning.
If using Quick Wash cycle (on some models), wash only a
few items.
Use Whites and Heavy Duty cycle for tough cleaning.
