If you experience
Possible Causes
Solution
Feet may not be in contact with the
floor and locked.
Front and rear feet must be in firm contact with floor, and washer
must be level to operate properly. Jam nuts must be tight
against the bottom of the cabinet. See Installation Instructions.
Check floor for flexing or sagging. If flooring is uneven, a 3/4"
(19 mm) piece of plywood under your washer will reduce sound.
See “Level the Washer” in Installation Instructions.
Load could be unbalanced. Load garments in loose heaps evenly around the washplate.
Adding wet items to washer or adding more water to basket
could unbalance washer.
Do not tightly pack. Avoid washing single items.
Use Bulky Items/Sheets cycle for oversized, non-absorbent
items such as jackets and small comforters. See “Cycle Guide”.
See “Cycle Guide” and “Using Your Washer” in this Use and
Care Guide.
Empty pockets before washing. Loose items such as coins
could fall between basket and tub or may block pump. It may
be necessary to call for service to remove items.

Washer may be draining water.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Check the following for
proper installation or see
“Using Your Washer”
section.
Washer may not be level.
Washer not level. Water may splash off basket if washer is not level. Check that
load is not unbalanced or tightly packed.
Fill hoses not attached tightly. Tighten fill-hose connection.
Make sure all four fill hose flat washers are properly seated.
Drain hose connection. Pull drain hose from washer cabinet and properly secure it to
drainpipe or laundry tub.
Check household plumbing for leaks
or clogged sink or drain.
Water can back up out of a clogged sink or drainpipe. Check
all household plumbing for leaks (laundry tubs, drain pipe,
water pipes, and faucets.)
Fill hose washers.
Water Leaks
Check the following for
proper installation:
Do not place tape over drain opening.
Unbalanced loading can cause basket to be out of alignment
and cause water to splash off tub. See “Using Your Washer”
for loading instructions.
Washer not loaded as
recommended.
Not enough water
in washer
Load not completely covered
in water.
This is normal operation for an HE low-water washer. The load
will not be completely under water. The washer senses load
sizes and adds correct amount of water for optimal cleaning.
See “What’s New under the Lid.”
IMPORTANT:
Do not add more water to washer. Adding water
lifts the garments off the washplate, resulting in less effective
cleaning.
Washer not performing as expected
Humming You may hear the hum of the sensing spins after you have started
the washer. This is normal.
Load sensing may be occurring.
