SOLUTIONS
Over sudsing may create leaks, and
may be caused by the type and
amount of detergent used. High-
Efficiency detergent is the only
detergent recommended. Make sure
that detergent and any additives
are put into the correct dispenser
compartments. The normal amount
of detergent to use is 1/4 to of the
maximum amount recommended by
the detergent manufacturer. Always
reduce the amount of detergent if
the load is small or lightly soiled, or
if your water bis very soft. Never use
more than the maximum amount
recommended by the detergent
manufacturer.
Articles that have previously been
washed may have stains that have
been set . These stains may be
difficult to remove and may require
hand washing or pre-treating to aid
in stain removal.
Ensure that the drain hose is not
kinked. Make sure that the drain
hose is no higher than 4 ft. above the
bottom of the washer and is no more
than 5 ft. away from the washer.
