What To Do

• Switch to a lower sudsing detergent brand and follow
instructions on package.
• Try less detergent.
• Use less detergent. Use less soap if you have soft water,
a smaller load or a lightly soiled load.
• Make sure hose connections are tight at faucets and
rubber washers are installed. Make sure end of drain hose
is correctly inserted in and secured to drain facility.
• Check household plumbing. You may need to call
a plumber.
• Make sure drain hose is fully seated in back of washer and
that the two retaining screws are fully seated.
• Make sure drain hose does not make contact with the wall.
May cause excessive wear on the hose.
• Tighten hoses at the faucets and turn the water off after
each use.
• Check condition of the fill hoses; they should be replaced
every 5 years.
• New laundry detergents have been formulated to work
with cooler water temperatures without affecting wash
performance.
• Turn both hot and cold faucets fully on and make sure
hoses are connected to correct faucets.
• Turn off the water source and remove the water connection
hoses from the upper back of the washer. Use a brush or
toothpick to clean the screens in the machine. Reconnect
the hoses and turn the water back on.
• Make sure house water heater is delivering water at
120°F–140°F (48°C–60°C).
• Reset cycle.
• Straighten drain hose and make sure washer is not
sitting on it.
• Top of drain outlet should be less than 6 ft (1.8 m)

soak during these cycles to get your clothes cleaner with
less wear.
• The washer may pause during the spin cycle to remove
