3. Timer has been advanced to start of a cycle.
4. Water faucets are turned on.
5. Inlet and drain hoses are not kinked.
6. Washer lid is closed.
7. Inlet valve is not frozen if not protected from the weather.

rinsing. Operate the washer through a complete cycle with no
detergent. Use less detergent or a controlled suds type
detergent in future loads.
