for assistance and to possibly avoid a service call.
Possible Causes
Check for proper water supply.
Check proper electrical supply.
Normal washer operation.
Washer may be tightly packed.
Empty pockets and use garment
bags for small items.
Using 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
4.5" (114 mm).
Too much detergent causing suds to
slow or stop draining and spinning.
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 inlet hoses for any kinks, 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.
Lid must be closed for washer to run.
Washer will pause during certain phases of cycle. Do not
interrupt cycle.
Remove several items, rearrange load evenly around the
washplate. Close lid and press START/Pause.
Add only 1 or 2 additional items after washer has started.
Small items may have been caught in pump or between basket
and tub, which can slow draining.
Cycles with lower spin speeds remove less water than cycles
with high spin speeds. Use the recommended cycle/spin speed
for your item. 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 the Drain &
Spin cycle 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 96" (2.4 m)
above the floor. Remove any clogs from drain hose.
Use only HE detergent. Always measure and follow detergent
directions for your load. To remove extra suds, select Rinse &
Spin. Do not add detergent.
