Possible Causes
Solution
Both hoses must be attached and have water flowing to
inlet valve.
Both hot and cold water faucets must be turned on.
Check that inlet valve screens have not become clogged.
Check for any kinks in inlet hoses, which can restrict water flow.
Plug power cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not use an extension cord.
Ensure there is power to outlet.
Reset a tripped circuit breaker. Replace any blown fuses.
NOTE: If problems continue, contact an electrician.
Lid must be closed for washer to run.
Washer will pause during certain phases of cycle. Do not
interrupt cycle.
Remove several items, rearrange load evenly in basket, and add
detergent. Close lid and press START/Pause.
Do not add more than 1 or 2 additional items after cycle has
started to avoid tightly packing or unbalancing.
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 packed or unbalanced loads may 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 Rinse/Spin. Do not add detergent.
