Lr_. "uL" (Unbalanced Load)

If the code remains and the wash cycle dial is flashing after the recovery routine has stopped, open lid and redistribute the load. Close lid and press START.

NOTE: For best performance, load garments in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall. Do not load above the stainless steel portion of the basket.

•_ "Sd" (Suds Detected)

Did you use regular detergent?

Regular or hand-washing detergents are not recommended for this washer. Use only High Efficiency ("HE") detergent.

Did you add too much detergent?

Always measure detergent. Follow detergent manufacturer's directions. Remember, concentrated detergents such as 2x or higher will use less detergent based on load size.

If excessive suds are detected, the washer will display this code while running a suds reduction correction routine at the end of the wash cycle. The suds reduction routine removes extra suds and assures proper rinsing of your garments. If the code remains and the wash cycle dial is flashing after the recovery routine has stopped, re-select your desired cycle using cold water. Press START. Do not add detergent.

Is the lid open? Close the lid to clear the display. If the lid remains open for more than 10 minutes, water in the wash tub will drain.

The washer must be level. The front and rear feet must be in firm contact with the floor. Check that the Iocknuts are

tightened. See "Level the Washer."

•Is the floor flexing, sagging or not level?

Flooring that flexes or is uneven can contribute to noise and vibration of the washer. A 3/4" (1.9 cm) piece of plywood under the washer will reduce the sounds. See "Location Requirements."

•Did you load the washer as recommended?

For best performance, load garments in loose heaps evenly around the basket wall. Do not load above the stainless steel

portion of the basket.

Evenly distribute the load in the washer basket and make sure the height of the load does not exceed the top of the stainless steel portion of the basket. See "Starting Your Washer."

When the drive system shifts or the washer basket settles between cycles you may hear noises that are different from your previous washer. These are normal washer noises.

You will hear more splashing sounds when washing small loads. This is normal.

The washer basket moves while washing. This is normal.

Can you hear water spraying? This is part of the wash action.

Are you washing items with metal snaps, buckles or zippers?

You may hear metal items touching the basket. This is normal.
