on?
Turn on the water.
• Is the water inlet hose kinked?
Straighten the hoses.
• Does the water level seem too low, or
does the washer appear to not fill com-
pletely?
The Auto Water Level feature senses the size
of the load and adds the correct amount of
water for the load size.
• Are you using Auto Water Level?
The Auto feature senses the size of the load
and adds the correct amount of water for the
load size.
• Has a household fuse blown, or has a
circuit breaker tripped?
Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If
the problem continues, call an electrician.
• Is the washer in a normal pause in the
cycle?
The washer may pause during certain cycles.
Allow the cycle to continue.
• Is the washer overloaded?
Wash smaller loads. See "Starting The
Washer" for maximum load size.
• Is there oversudsing?
Cancel the current cycle. Select DRAIN &
SPIN to drain the load. Re-select your de-
sired cycle and press START. Do not add
detergent. Use cold water.
• Is the lid open?
The lid must be closed during operation. The
washer will not operate with the lid open.
• Did you add more items to the load once
the washer started?

space for more items. Do not add more than
1 or 2 garments after the cycle has started.
For best results determine load size with dry
items only.
Washer continues to fill or drain, or the
cycle seems stuck

control knobs on washer?
The top of the drain hose must be at least
39˝ (99 cm) above the floor. See "Drain
System."
• Does the drain hose fit too tightly in the
standpipe, or is it taped to the stand-
pipe?
The drain hose should be loose yet fit se-
curely. Do not seal the drain hose with tape.
The hose needs an air gap. See "Installation
Instructions."

• Are the hot and cold water inlet hoses
reversed?
If the hot and cold water inlet hoses are re-
versed, the washer will display an "HC" error
code at the end of the cycle. If an error code
does not appear but you are experiencing
poor washing performance, check to see
whether the inlet hoses are reversed. See
"Connect the Inlet Hoses."
• Are you washing many loads?
As your frequency of loads washed increases,
the water temperature may decrease for hot
and warm temperatures. This is normal.
• Do you have an ENERGY STAR
washer?
The wash water temperatures may feel cooler
to you than those of your previous washer.
This is normal.
