What To Do
Timer stops at 1 minute; machine has redistributed the load once or
twice. This is normal operation.
Do nothing; the machine will finish the wash cycle.
See the Care and Cleaning section on how to clean the
Pump Filter.
Straighten drain hose and make sure unit is not sitting on
it.
Check household plumbing. You may need to call a
plumber.
Ensure there is an air gap between hose and drain.
Unit is designed to move 1/4" to reduce forces transmitted
to the floor. This movement is normal.
Push and pull on the back right and then back left of your
unit to check if it is level. If the unit is uneven, adjust the
rubber leveling legs so they are all firmly touching the
floor and locked in place.
Pause unit, open door and manually redistribute load. To
check machine, run rinse and spin with no load. If normal,
unbalance was caused by load.
See the Care and Cleaning section on how to clean the
Pump Filter.
Make sure cord is plugged securely into a working outlet.
Press the Power button to "wake up" the display.
If the light on the Start/Pause button is flashing, the unit is
paused. Press Start/Pause button to restart the countdown.
Turn both hot and cold faucets fully on.
Check house circuit breakers/fuses. Replace fuses or
reset breaker. Unit should have separate outlet.
First time the unit is plugged in, automatic checks occur. It
may take up to 20 seconds before you can use your unit.
This is normal operation.
Remove loose items from pockets.
Fasten snaps, hooks, buttons and zippers.
During spin the unit may need to rebalance the load
sometimes to reduce vibrations. When this happens, the
estimated time is increased causing time left to increase
or jump.
Horizontal machines do not require the tub to fill with
water like top-load machines.
See the Care and Cleaning section on how to clean the
Pump Filter.
