What To Do
Timer adds :3minutes to cycle for each rebalance. 11 or 15
rebalances may be done. This is normal operation.
Do nothing; the machine will finish the wash cycle.
See page 13 on how to clean the Pump Filter.
Straighten drain hose and make sure washer 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.
Washer is designed to move 1/4" to reduce forces transmitted to the
floor. This movement isnormal.
. Push and pull on the back right and then back left of your washer to
check if it is level. If the washer is uneven, adjust the rubber leveling
legs so they are all firmly touching the floor and locked in place. Your
installer should correct this problem.
Pause unit, open door and manually redistribute load. Tocheck
machine, run rinse and spin with no load. If normal, unbalance was
caused by load.
See page 13 on how to clean the Pump Filter.
Make sure cord is plugged securely into a working outlet.
Turn both hot and cold faucets fully on.
Check house circuit breakers/fuses. Replace fuses or reset breaker.
Washer should have separate outlet.
First time the washer is plugged in, automatic checks occur. It may
take up to 20 seconds before you can use your washer. This is normal
operation.
Do not exceed maximum recommended load sizes.See
recommended maximum load sizes on page 12.
. Remove loose items from pockets.
Fasten snaps, hooks, buttons and zippers.
During spin the washer may need to rebalance the load sometimes to
reduce vibrations. When this happens, the estimated time isincreased
causing time left to increase or jump.
This is normal • Horizontal washers do not require the tub to fill with water like top-
load washers.
Pump clogged . See page 13 on how to clean the Pump Filter.
This is normal
Incorrect operation
Front-load washers start up differently than top-load
washers, and it takes 30 seconds to check the system. The door will
lock and unlock.
. Simply open and close the door firmly; then press Start.
