Possible Causes
For best performance, not all settings
are available with each cycle, and
some options cannot be used together.
Check for proper water supply.
Not using HE detergent or using too
much HE detergent.
Washer not loaded as recommended.
The load may be out of balance.
Washer not loaded as recommended.
Wash action and/or spin speed too
fast for load.
The washer is not unloaded promptly.
Not choosing the right cycle for the
load being washed.

enough to relax wrinkles.
Washer not loaded as recommended.
Not using HE detergent or using too
much HE detergent.
Hard water or high level of iron (rust)
in water.
Fabric softener dispensing ball used.
Powdered detergent used for
slow-speed cycle.
See the "Cycle Guide" for the available settings and options for
each cycle.
Make sure hot and cold inlet hoses are not reversed.
Both hoses must be attached and have water flowing to the
inlet valve.
Both hot and cold water faucets must be on.
Inlet valve screens on washer may be clogged.
Remove any kinks in the inlet hose.
The suds from regular detergent can cause the washer
to operate incorrectly.
Use only HE detergent. Always measure detergent and follow
manufacturer's directions based on load size and soil level.
Avoid tightly packing the washer. The washer will not rinse well
if tightly packed. Load with dry items only. See the "Cycle
Guide" for load size recommendations for each cycle.
Use cycle designed for the fabrics being washed.
Add only 1 or 2 garments after washer has started.
When load unbalance occurs, a washing process will start
to redistribute the load. This may lengthen the cycle time.
Avoid washing single items. Balance a single item such as
a rug or jeans jacket with a few extra items.
Add load loosely. Items need to move freely reduce
wrinkling and tangling. See the "Cycle Guide" for load
size recommendations for each cycle.
Reduce tangling by mixing types of load items. Use the
recommended cycle for the type of garments being washed.
Select a slower spin speed. Note that items will be wetter
than when using a faster speed spin.
Unload the washer as soon as it stops.
Use the Delicates cycle or another cycle with a slow spin
speed to reduce wrinkling.
If safe for load, use warm or hot wash water.
