for assistance and to possibly avoid a service call.
Washer not performing as expected (cont.)
Spin time is added if an unbalanced load is detected. The
washer will attempt to redistribute the load with additional
tumbling.
Not using correct cycle for load type.
When using the Quick Wash or Delicate cycles, you should wash
small loads. This ensures a gentle wash for your garments without
increasing cycle times.
The Quick Wash cycle is designed for smaller load sizes
(3-4 items) of lightly soiled garments. If larger loads are
washed in this cycle, wash time will be increased.
Normal washer operation. The cycle times vary automatically based on your water
pressure, water temperature, detergent, and clothes load.
The options you select will also affect the cycle times.
Cycle time changes or
cycle time too long
Excessive suds in washer.
Load may be out of balance.
When excessive suds are detected, a special suds routine
automatically starts to remove extra suds and ensure proper
rinsing of your garments. This routine will add time to the
original cycle.
When load unbalance occurs, an washing process will start
to redistribute the load. This extends the cycle time. Avoid
washing single items. Balance a single item such as a rug or
jeans jacket with a few extra items.
