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.

Washer Not Performing as Expected (cont.)

cycle.

Add only 1 or 2 garments after washer has started.

Not using HE detergent or using too

much HE detergent.

Use only HE detergent. Always measure detergent and follow

Hard water or high level of iron (rust)

in water.

You may need to install a water softener and/or iron ﬁlter.

Fabric softener dispensing ball used.

Dispensing balls will not operate correctly with this washer.

Add liquid fabric softener to the fabric softener compartment.

Powdered detergent used for

slow-speed cycle.

Consider using liquid detergent.

Load is wrinkled,

twisted, or tangled

Washer not loaded as recommended. 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.

Spin speed too fast for load.

Unload the washer as soon as it stops.

The washer is not unloaded promptly.

Use the Delicates cycle or another cycle with a slow spin

speed to reduce wrinkling.

Not choosing the right cycle for the

load being washed.

If safe for load, use warm or hot wash water.

The wash water was not warm

enough to relax wrinkles.

The load may be out of balance.

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.

For best performance, not all settings

are available with each cycle, and

some options cannot be used together.

Desired setting or

option does not light

See the “Cycle Guide” for the available settings and options for

each cycle.
