TROUBLESHOOTING
If you experience
Washer not performing as expected (cont.)
Washer won't run
or fill, washer stops
working or wash light
remains on (indicating
the washer was unable
to fill appropriately)
(cont.)
Washer not draining/
spinning, loads are
still wet or spin light
remains on (indicating
that the washer was
unable to pump out
water within ten
minutes)
Dry spots on load
after cycle
First try the solutions suggested here to possibly avoid a service call.
Possible Causes
Check proper electrical supply.
Normal washer operation.
Washer may be tightly packed.
Small items may have been caught
in pump or between basket
and tub, which can slow draining.
Use a cycle with a low spin speed.
The washer may be tightly
packed or unbalanced.
Check plumbing for correct
drain hose installation. Drain
hose extends into standpipe
farther than 114 mm (4,5").
Too much detergent causing
suds to slow or stop draining and
spinning.
High speed spins extract more
moisture than traditional top-load
washers.
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.
Lid must be closed for washer to run.
Washer will pause during certain phases of cycle. Do not
interrupt cycle.
Washer spins the dry load for several minutes before filling to
determine if load is balanced. You may hear the hum of the spins.
This is normal.
Remove several items, rearrange load evenly in basket, and add
detergent. Close lid and press START/Pause/Unlock.
Do not add more than 1 or 2 additional items after cycle has
started to avoid tightly packing or unbalancing.
Empty pockets and use garment bags for small items.
Cycles with lower spin speeds remove less water than cycles with
high spin speeds. Use the recommended cycle/speed spin for your
garment. To remove extra water in the load, select Drain & Spin.
Load may need to be rearranged to allow even distribution of the
load in the basket.
Tightly packed or unbalanced loads may not allow the washer to
spin correctly, leaving the load wetter than normal. Evenly
arrange the wet load for balanced spinning. Select Drain & Spin
to remove excess water. See "Using Your Washer" for loading
recommendations.
Check drain hose for proper installation. Use drain hose form
and securely attach to drainpipe or tub. Do not tape over drain
opening. Lower drain hose if the end is higher than 1.2 m (48")
above the floor. Remove any clogs from drain hose.
Always measure and follow detergent directions for your load.
To remove extra suds, select Rinse & Spin. Do not add detergent.
The high spin speeds combined with air flow during the final
spin can cause items near the top of the load to develop dry spots
during the final spin. This is normal.
