Is the sink or drain clogged? Sink and drainpipe must be
able to carry away 17 gal. (64 L) of water per minute. If sink or
drainpipe is clogged or slow, water can back up out of
drainpipe or sink. Check household plumbing (laundry tubs,
faucets, drainpipe, water pipes) for leaks.
Is water splashing off the tub ring? Center the tub before
starting the washer.
Is water splashing off the load? Evenly distribute the load in
the washer basket and make sure the height of the load does
not exceed the top row of basket holes. The fill or spray
rinses can splash off the load.
Dispenser clogged (on some models)
Did you follow the manufacturer's directions when adding
fabric softener to the dispenser (on some models)?
Measure fabric softener and slowly pour into the dispenser.
Wipe up all spills. Dilute fabric softener in the fabric softener
dispenser.
Washer Operation

WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
Is the power cord plugged into a grounded 3 prong
outlet? Plug power cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Is the indicator on the Cycle Control knob properly lined
up with a cycle? Turn the Cycle Control knob to the right
slightly and pull to start.
Are the water inlet valve screens clogged? Turn off the
water and remove inlet hoses from the washer. Remove any
accumulated film or particles. Reinstall hoses, turn on water
and check for leaks.
Are both the hot and cold water faucets turned on? Turn
on the water.
Is the water inlet hose kinked? Straighten the hoses.
Does the water level seem too low, or does the washer
appear to not fill completely? The top of the agitator is
much higher than the highest water level. This is normal and
necessary for clothes to move freely.
Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker
tripped? Replace the fuse, or reset the circuit breaker. If the
problem continues, call an electrician.
Is the washer in a normal pause in the cycle? The washer
pauses for about 2 minutes during certain cycles. Allow the
cycle to continue. Some cycles feature periods of agitation
and soak.
Is the washer overloaded? Wash smaller loads.
Is the lid open? The lid must be closed during operation.
Washer will not agitate or spin with the lid open.
Washer continues to fill or drain; cycle seems stuck
Is the top of drain hose lower than the control knobs on
washer? The top of the drain hose must be at least
39" (99 cm) above the floor. See the Installation Instructions.
Does the drain hose fit too tightly in the standpipe, or is it
taped to the standpipe? The drain hose should be loose yet
fit securely. Do not seal the drain hose with tape. The hose
needs an air gap. See the Installation Instructions.
Washer won't drain or spin; water remains in washer
Is the drain hose clogged, or the end of the drain hose
more than 96" (244 cm) above the floor? See the
Installation Instructions.
Is the lid open? The lid must be closed during operation.
Washer will not agitate or spin with the lid open.
Is there excessive sudsing? Always measure detergent.
Follow manufacturer's directions. If you have very soft water,
you might need to use less detergent.
Wash/Rinse temperature
Are the hot and cold water inlet hoses reversed? See
"Connect Inlet Hoses."
Are you washing many loads? As your frequency of loads
washed increases, the water temperature may decrease for
hot and warm temperatures. This is normal.
Clothing Care
Load too wet
Did you use the right cycle for the load being washed?
Select a cycle with a higher spin speed (if available).
Did you wash an extra-large load? A large unbalanced load
could result in a reduced spin speed and wet clothes at the
end of the cycle. Evenly distribute the load and make sure the
height of the load does not exceed the top row of basket
holes.
Residue or lint on load
Did you sort properly? Sort lint givers (towels, chenille) from
lint takers (corduroy, synthetics). Also sort by color.
Did you overload the washer? The wash load must be
balanced and not overloaded. Clothes should move freely.
Lint or powdered detergent can be trapped in the load if
overloaded. Wash smaller loads.
