Possible Causes
Feet may not be in contact with the
floor and locked.
Washer may not be level.
Load could be unbalanced.
Objects caught in washer
drain system.
Washer may be draining water.
The sensing light is on.
Washer not level.
Fill hoses not attached tightly.
Fill hose washers.
Drain hose connection.
Check household plumbing for leaks
or clogged sink or drain.
Washer not loaded as
recommended.
Load not completely covered
in water.
Front and rear feet must be in firm contact with floor, and washer
must be level to operate properly. Jam nuts must be tight against
the bottom of the cabinet. See "Installation Instructions".
Check floor for flexing or sagging. If flooring is uneven, a 3/4"
(19 mm) piece of plywood under your washer will reduce sound.
See "Level the Washer" in Installation Instructions.
Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the washplate. Do
not load garments directly over the center of the washplate.
Adding wet items to washer or adding more water to basket could
unbalance washer.
Wash smaller loads to reduce imbalance.
Do not tightly pack. Avoid washing single items.
Use Bulky cycle for oversized, non-absorbent items such as
jackets and small comforters.
See "Cycle Guide" and "Using Your Washer" in this Use and
Care Guide.
Empty pockets before washing. Loose items such as coins could fall
between basket and tub or may block pump. It may be necessary to
call for service to remove items.
It is normal to hear metal items on clothing such as metal snaps,
buckles, or zippers touch against the stainless steel basket.
It is normal to hear the pump making a continuous humming sound
with periodic gurgling or surging as final amounts of water are
removed during the spin/drain cycles.
You may hear the hum of the sensing spins after you have started the
washer. This is normal. Sensing spins will take several minutes before
water is added to the washer.
Water may splash off basket if washer is not level.
Check that load is not unbalanced or tightly packed.
Tighten fill-hose connection.
Make sure all four fill hose flat washers are properly seated.
Pull drain hose from washer cabinet and properly secure it to
drainpipe or laundry tub.
Do not place tape over drain opening.
Water can backup out of a clogged sink or drainpipe. Check all
household plumbing for leaks (laundry tubs, drain pipe, water
pipes, and faucets.)
Unbalanced loading can cause basket to be out of alignment and
cause water to splash off tub. See "Using Your Washer" for loading
instructions.
This is normal operation for an HE low-water washer. The load will
not be completely under water. The washer senses load sizes and adds
correct amount of water for optimal cleaning. See "What's New under
the Lid."
IMPORTANT: Do not add more water to washer. Adding water lifts the
garments off the washplate, resulting in less effective cleaning.
