Solutions
Remove the load immediately after it finishes.
Do not overload the tub.
Hot water rinse can cause garments to wrinkle. Check
the inlet hose connections.
Make sure that the plug is secured in a grounded
3-prong, 120 V (60 Hz) outlet.
Reset the circuit breaker or replace the fuse. Do not
increase the fuse capacity. If the problem is a circuit
overload, have it corrected by a qualified electrician.
The washing machine has a safety lock built into the
door to prevent burning. Leave the door closed and wait
until the door lock icon disappears from the display.
Allow the washer to complete the programmed cycle,
or Press the SPIN button.
This is normal. The washing machine automatically
adjusts the cycle time for the amount of laundry, water
pressure, water temperature, and other operating
conditions.
Use only HE (High-Efficiency) detergent recommended
for a front-loading washing machine.
See page 30, clean the inside and outside of the
washing machine periodically.
Water hammer is not caused by a defect in the washer.
Install water hammer arrestors (purchased separately at
hardware or home improvement store) between the fill
hose and the washer for best results.
Adjust household water supply regulator to a lower
pressure or contact a plumber to have a regulator
installed.
Smell comes from the rubber attached to the washer door.
It will eventually dissipate after first couple of wash cycles.
Periodically clean the gasket. Mold and foreign substances
inside the gasket may produce mildew or musty smells.
Clean the drain pump filter regularly. Foreign substances
on the drain pump filter may produce mildew or musty
smells.
If the drain hose is not installed properly, the odor may be
emitted because of a backflow of drainage into the tub.
Make sure that the drain hose is not kinked or clogged.
