Possible Causes
y Did you remove the load immediately
after it finished?
y Did you overload the tub?
y Did you reverse the hot and cold water
inlets?
y Is the power cord plugged in properly?
y Has a house fuse blown, a circuit breaker
tripped, or a power outage occurred?
y Is the temperature in the tub too high?
y Is the water level in washer high?
y Is the washing machine overloaded? Are
other options added to the wash cycle?
y Has the incorrect detergent been used?
y Did you clean the tub periodically?
y Plumbing in the home moves or flexes
when the water valves in the washer
shut off.
y Household water supply pressure is very
high.

y Remove the load immediately after it
finishes.
y Do not overload the tub.
y Hot water rinse can cause garments
to wrinkle. Check the inlet hose
connections.
y Make sure that the plug is secured in a
grounded 3-prong, 120 V (60 Hz) outlet.
y 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.
y 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.
y Allow the washer to complete the
programmed cycle, or Press the SPIN
button.
y This is normal. The washing machine
automatically adjusts the cycle time for
the amount of laundry, water pressure,
water temperature, and other operating
conditions.
y Use only HE (High-Efficiency) detergent
recommended for a front-loading
washing machine.
y See page 30, clean the inside and
outside of the washing machine
periodically.
y 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.
y Adjust household water supply regulator
to a lower pressure or contact a
plumber to have a regulator installed.
