Troubleshooting
• Check fuse or reset circuit breaker.
• Straighten drain hoses. Eliminate kinked hoses. If there is a home drain restriction,
call for drain service.
• Close lid and pull knob out to start the washer. For your safety, washer will not spin
unless the lid is closed.
• Suds lock – caused by too much suds. Rewash without detergent. Use correct
amount of a low-sudsing detergent.
• Unevenly distributed load. Redistribute the load, close the lid and pull knob out.
Check for leveling. Be sure water level is acceptable for load size.
• A normal spin speed is recommended for heavy loads like jeans or towels.
• Plug cord into live electrical outlet.
• Check fuse or reset circuit breaker.
• Turn the control knob to proper cycle and pull knob out to start the washer.
• Close lid and pull knob out to start the washer. For your safety, washer will not spin
unless lid is closed.
• This may be a pause in the cycle. Wait briefly and it may start.
• Make sure hose connections are tight.
• Make sure end of drain hose is correctly inserted and secured to drain facility.
• Avoid extended soaking – soak for 30 minutes or less.
• Avoid overloading.
• Be sure washer is leveled properly as outlined in installation manual.
• Weak floors can cause vibration and walking.
• Operating sounds will vary depending on agitation speed.
• Turn both faucets on fully.
• If equipped with a temperature selector knob, be sure it is set directly on a
temperature setting and not between settings.
• Make sure temperature selection is correct.
• If Auto Temperature Control (select models) is selected, cold water may feel warmer
than cold water from the tap. (See pages 5 and 7).
• Make sure hoses are connected to correct faucets and inlet connections. Be sure
water supply is regulated correctly. Flush water line before filling washer.
• Check the water heater. It should be set to deliver a minimum 120° F (49° C) hot
water at the tap. Also check water heater capacity and recovery rate.
• Disconnect hoses and clean screens. Hose filter screens may be plugged.
• Extra Rinse (select models) is selected.
