Do not add more water to the washer.
Empty pockets and use garment bags for small items.
Cycles with lower spin speeds remove less water than cycles
with high spin speeds. Use the recommended cycle/spin speed
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 96" (2.4 m) above the
floor. Remove any clogs from drain hose.
Always measure and follow detergent directions for your load.
To remove extra suds, select the Quick Wash cycle. Do not add
detergent.
This is normal and necessary for clothes to move freely.
