Starting Your Washer	6
1. Measure detergent and pour it into the washer. If desired, add powdered or liquid color safe bleach. Drop a sorted load of clothes loosely into your washer.	6
2. (OPTIONAL) Add liquid chlorine bleach.	6
Always measure liquid chlorine bleach. Do not guess. Do not use more than 1 cup (250 mL) for a full load. Follow manufacturer’s directions for safe use. Use a cup with a pouring spout to avoid spilling.	6
Let the washer fill and begin agitating the load. Add bleach to the wash cycle so it can be removed in the rinse cycle. Pour bleach around the agitator, not directly onto the load.	6
NOTE: Undiluted bleach will damage any fabric it touches. The damage appears as rips, holes, tears, or color loss and may not show up until several washings later.	6
3. (OPTIONAL) Add liquid fabric softener.	6
NOTE: Do not spill or drip any fabric softener onto the clothes. Undiluted fabric softener can stain fabrics. Always dilute fabric softener with warm water. Too much fabric softener can make some items (diapers and towels) nonabsorbent. If this happe...	6

Are the gears engaging after the drain and before spin, or is the upper part of agitator clicking during wash? These are normal washer noises.	10
Is the washer gurgling or humming? When the washer drains, the pump will make a continuous humming with periodic gurgling or surging sounds as the final amounts of water are removed. This is normal.	10
The washer basket moves while washing. This is normal.	10
Leaking	10
Are the fill hoses tight?	10
Are the fill hose gaskets properly seated? Check both ends of each hose. See the Installation Instructions.	10
Is the drain hose properly installed? The drain hose should be secured to the drainpipe or laundry tub. See the Installation Instructions.	10
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, drai...	10
Is water splashing off the tub ring? Center the tub before starting the washer.	10
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.	10
Dispenser clogged (on some models)	10
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.	10
Washer Operation	10
Washer won’t run, fill, rinse, or agitate; washer stops	10
Is the power cord plugged into a grounded 3 prong outlet? Plug power cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet.	10
Are you using an extension cord? Do not use an extension cord.	10
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.	10
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.	10
Are both the hot and cold water faucets turned on? Turn on the water.	10
Is the water inlet hose kinked? Straighten the hoses.	10
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.	10
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.	10
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.	10
Is the washer overloaded? Wash smaller loads.	10
Is the lid open? The lid must be closed during operation. Washer will not agitate or spin with the lid open.	10
Washer continues to fill or drain; cycle seems stuck	11
Is the top of drain hose lower than the control knobs on washer? The top of the drain hose must be at least 39\	11
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.	11
Washer won’t drain or spin; water remains in washer	11
Is the drain hose clogged, or the end of the drain hose more than 96\	11
Is the lid open? The lid must be closed during operation. Washer will not agitate or spin with the lid open.	11
Is there excessive sudsing? Always measure detergent. Follow manufacturer’s directions. If you have very soft water, you might need to use less detergent.	11
Wash/Rinse temperature	11
Are the hot and cold water inlet hoses reversed? See “Connect Inlet Hoses” in the Installation Instructions.	11
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.	11
Clothing Care	11
Load too wet	11
Did you use the right cycle for the load being washed? Select a cycle with a higher spin speed (if available).	11
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.	11
Residue or lint on load	11
Did you sort properly? Sort lint givers (towels, chenille) from lint takers (corduroy, synthetics). Also sort by color.	11
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.	11
Did you select the correct water level? The water level should be correct for the load size. The load should be under water.	11
Did you use enough detergent? Follow manufacturer’s directions. Use enough detergent to hold the lint in the water.	11
Did you line dry your clothing? If so, you can expect some lint on the clothing. The air movement and tumbling of a dryer removes lint from the load.	11
Was paper or tissue left in the pockets?	11
Is your water colder than 60°F (15.6°C)? Wash water colder than 60°F (15.6°C) may not completely dissolve the detergent.	11
Did you use the proper cycle time and agitation speed for the load? Reducing wash time (duration) and agitation speed are ways to reduce lint.	11
Load is wrinkled, twisted, or tangled	11
Did you unload the washer promptly? Unload the washer as soon as it stops.	11
Did you use the right cycle for the load being washed? Use cycles with shorter wash times and low wash and spin speeds (if available) to reduce wrinkling, tangling, and twisting.	11
Did you overload the washer? The wash load must be balanced and not overloaded. Loads should move freely during washing to reduce wrinkling, tangling, and twisting.	11
Was the wash water warm enough to relax wrinkles? If safe for the load, use warm or hot wash water. Use cold rinse water.	11
Are the hot and cold water hoses reversed? Check that the hot and cold water hoses are connected to the right faucets. A hot rinse followed by spin will cause wrinkling. See the Installation Instructions.	11
Did you wrap items around the agitator? Drop items loosely into the washer. Do not wrap items around the agitator.	11
Stains, gray whites, dingy colors	11
Did you properly sort the load? Transfer of dye can occur when mixing whites and colors in a load. Sort dark clothes from whites and lights.	11
Was the wash temperature too low? Use hot or warm washes if safe for the load. Make sure your hot water system is adequate to provide a hot water wash.	11
Did you use enough detergent, or do you have hard water? Use more detergent for washing heavy soils in cold or hard water.	11
Are the hot and cold water hoses reversed? Check that the hot and cold water hoses are connected to the right faucets. See the Installation Instructions.	11
Did you follow the manufacturer’s directions when adding detergent and fabric softener? Measure detergent and fabric softener. Use enough detergent to remove soil and hold it in suspension. Dilute fabric softener and add to the rinse portion of a c...	11
Is there above average iron (rust) in water? You may need to install an iron filter.	11
Garments damaged	11
Were sharp items removed from pockets before washing? Empty pockets, zip zippers, snap, or hook fasteners before washing to avoid snagging and tearing of load.	11
Were strings and sashes tied to avoid tangling? Straps and strings can easily become entangled in the load, causing strain on seams and tearing.	11
Were items damaged before washing? Mend rips and broken threads in seams before washing.	11
Did you overload the washer? The wash load must be balanced and not overloaded. Loads should move freely during washing.	11
Did you add chlorine bleach properly? Do not pour chlorine bleach directly onto load. Wipe up bleach spills. Undiluted bleach will damage fabrics. Do not place load items on top of the bleach dispenser when loading and unloading the washer (on some m...	11

Is it a gas dryer? The gas valve clicking is a normal operating sound.	12
Are the four legs installed, and is the dryer level front to back and side to side? The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed. See the Installation Instructions.	12
Is the clothing knotted, or balled up? When balled up, the load will bounce, causing the dryer to vibrate. Separate the load items and restart the dryer.	12
Timer does not noticeably advance	12
Is the dryer set to Timed or Air Dry? The timer moves slowly and continuously for the timed setting.	12
Is the dryer set to Automatic Drying? The timer moves only when the clothing is mostly dry.	12
