Washer is making noise:
• Washer may need to be reinstalled. (Check washer installation section)
• Washer load may need to be re-balanced, as the load may be uneven.
• Coins, loose change, buttons or other heavy objects could make noise
(read Operating Guide – Normal Operating Sounds).
• Squealing Sound: Due to overloaded wash tub.
• Vibration Noise: Due to not leveling washer properly on the floor and uneven
distribution of clothes in the tub.
Problems with clothes:
• Clothes are too wrinkled: this is due to improper sorting, overloading and
washing in too hot water repeatedly. Avoid overloading and resort your load. Do
not mix heavy clothes such as work clothes with light clothes such as blouses, light
shirts and delicate items. You may need to wash in warm or cold water.
• Have soap residue: detergent may not be dissolving in water. Check water
temperature or you need to add detergent as wash tub is being filled with water
before you load your clothes to avoid soap residue on clothes.
• Spots or stains on your clothes: this is due to incorrect use of fabric softener. You
may need to follow proper manufacturer instructions on the container and follow
proper directions for using the softener.
• Clothes are grayed or yellowed: this is due to not pouring enough detergent for
large loads. You may have to add more detergent to the load.
• Clothes are ripped & have holes/excessive wear & tear: this is due to sharp
objects such as pins and belt buckles left in pockets. You will need to remove small
loose sharp objects. Fasten belts, zippers, metal snaps etc. Check if you are using
undiluted bleach. Never add undiluted bleach to wash.
Dryer does not operate:
• Check if unit is unplugged. The plug may have come loose.
• Check if the circuit breaker needs to be reset or if the fuse needs to be replaced
• Check if the unit is in "OFF" mode. Press the "ON" button again.
