Maytag LAT8014 - Lid Service; Unbalance Condition

switch assembly is properly
adjusted.
Note: It is important to be aware
that it is the reset operation of the
lid switch that is being set by the
above technique. Always check this
adjustment by turning washer timer
to the spin cycle. Washer should
shut off when the lid is raised not
more than 1 3/4/1.
Unbalance Condition:
When a load of clothes becomes unbal-
anced, the unbalance mechanism will
disengage from the lid switch and stop
the washer. When this happens the
word "UNBALANCED" will appear in
the display and an audible signal will
sound after a period of 60 seconds. The
signal will then sound every 60 seconds
until the user lifts the lid (after the tub
has stopped), redistributes the clothes
in the tub and closes the lid, at which
point the cycle resumes.
LID
To Remove Lid:
Raise
the lid so it is at a 45 degree
angle with the top cover.
With the left hand, grasp the left side
of the lid toward the back. With the
right hand, grasp the right side of the
lid at the right front corner.
Taking care to watch where the hinge
balls go; pull toward you with the right
hand.
To replace lid:
Place a hinge ball in the recess of the
left side of the top cover. Holding it in
position, place the lid over the ball so
the ball is in the recess on the left side
of the lid.
