p

ow is not

Water supply connected with leak-

limiting

 

hoses.

Hoses designed to limit leaks can trip falsely

o

lling. The use of

Cycle won’t start, or 

the display shows:

or

The door is not closed properly.

Make sure that the door is closed properly and

 

press 

the START/PAUSE button. After starting

 

a cycle, it 

may take a few moments before the

 

drum begins to 

turn or spin. The washer will not

 

operate unless the 

door is locked.
If the door is closed and locked and the open

 

door 

error message is displayed, call

 

for service.

The display shows:

Load is too small.

Add 1 or 2 similar items to help balance the load.

Load is out of balance.

The washer has an imbalance detection and

 

correction system. If individual heavy articles are

 

loaded (bath mat, bath robe, etc.) and the imbalance

 

is too great, the washer will make several

 

attempts to 

restart the spin cycle. If an imbalance

 

is still detected, 

the washer will stop and the error

 

code will display.

The display shows:

Control error.

Unplug the washer and wait 60 seconds. Reconnect

 

power and try again. If the error reappears, call for

 

service.

water valve.

call 

for service.

The display shows:

The water level sensor is not working

 

correctly.

Close the water faucets, unplug the washer, and

 

call 

for service.

The display shows:

A motor error has occurred.

Allow the washer to stand for 30 minutes and

 

then 

restart the cycle. If the LE error code persists,

 

call for 

service.

The display shows:

A power failure has occurred.

If the power to the washer has been interrupted

 

during a cycle, the PF error code will display

 

the next 

time the washer is turned ON. This will

 

alert you to 

the fact that the previous cycle may

 

not have been 

completed. Select any cycle to

 

clear the error code 

and use the washer.

The display shows:

If the washing machine detects too many 

suds, it displays this error code and adds 

a Suds Reducing cycle. This adds about 

two hours to the cycle time. If too many 

suds are detected during spinning, the 

washing machine stops to help prevent 

leaking.

Do not add more than the manufacturer’s 

recommended amount of detergent.
