(indicating that the

to pump out water
within 10 minutes)
Washer not loaded as recommended.
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.
Possible Causes
Solution
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 and rearrange load evenly in basket.
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.
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/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 packing or unbalanced loads will 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 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.
