Suds Lock

S L

The motor controller senses a suds lock condition by analyzing the current draw on the drive

 

motor. If a potential suds lock is detected, the control tries up to 3 times to clean out the unit

 

with a mini-cycle. See Use and Care Guide for more information.

 

 

 

 

“SL” is displayed if suds are detected but the unit is unable to clean out suds. This may

 

 

indicate a bad pump, an extra heavy load, excessive detergent or excessive suds.

 

 

Press STOP/CANCEL to clear the display.
