Troubleshooting

Problem

Possible cause

Does not operate

 

The power plug is not inserted in the power outlet.

 

There is a power outage.

 

The Delay Timer has been set.

It is wet, even though it is 
the fi rst time to use it (drain 
hose, tub, etc.)

 

There may be moisture or water left in the tub or hoses from the 
performance test before shipping from the factory.

The remaining time 
increases during operation

 

The remaining time is adjusted to compensate for the speed of the 
incoming water.

Water is added again 
during the washing process

 

Water is added automatically up to the set water level if the water 
level falls because water is absorbed by the laundry.

Wash time is longer than 
the time that was set 
manually

 

If the water pressure is low, the operating time may increase due to a 
longer water supply time.

The washing machine 
stops during the spin cycle 
and starts adding water

 

If the laundry is extremely off balance when the spin cycle starts, the 
spin cycle stops and the rinse cycle starts to rebalance the laundry. 
After the load is rebalanced, the spin cycle starts again.

During the spin cycle, the 
tub spins increasingly faster

 

This is to more effi ciently remove water.

Sound of water is heard 
when the tub moves

 

That is the sound of water in the Liquid Load Balancer, which is used 
for balancing when the tub is spinning.

The tub does not fi ll up 
when water is added from 
a bucket

 

If drain hose end is set lower than 1 m, water is discharged.

The lid does not open

 

When the lid lock indicator is lit, the lid is locked and cannot be 
opened.

 

The lid is locked and cannot be opened because there was a power 
outage or the power was turned off while the lid lock indicator was lit. 
Turn on the power and wait for the lock to be released.

The strength of water fl ow 
does not change in spite of 
changing the indicator

 

It may not change the strength of water fl ow according to the process 
and the load amount. It is not abnormal.
