Troubleshooting Tips
Consumer Support
Load dry items loosely, no higher than the top row of holes in the washer basket. When loading wet items make sure you set the load/water level high enough to allow the items to move freely. Water level should just cover the clothes. To add items after washer has started, push in Cycle knob and submerge additional items next to the agitator. Close the lid and pull Cycle knob out to restart.
■Do not wrap long items like sheets or pants around the agitator.
■Do not wash fabrics containing flammable materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).
■Water will fill and pump out of the washer and the timer will advance with the lid up, but as a safety precaution the washer will not agitate or spin.
