Select POWER/CANCEL twice to cancel the cycle. Unplug washer or disconnect power.

Check the following:

Are both hot and cold water faucets completely turned on? Are screens at inlet hose connection to washer clogged? Are water inlet hoses kinked?

Are water inlet hoses frozen?

Were you washing a large load?

Select POWER/CANCEL twice to cancel the cycle. Select DRAIN & SPIN if there is excessive water in the washer.

Plug in washer or reconnect power. Re-select cycle and press START/PAUSE. If the problem remains, call for service.

„“SUD” (Suds Routine)

When excessive suds are detected, a suds routine automatically starts. This routine removes extra suds and assures proper rinsing of your garments. “SUD” is displayed during rinsing and at the end of the cycle to inform you that Suds Routine was activated. Use only HE (High Efficiency) detergents.
