Washer not performing as expected (cont.)
Not using correct cycle for load type.
When using the Quick Wash or Delicates cycle, 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, cycle 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, a washing process will start
to redistribute the load. This may lengthen the cycle time.
Avoid washing single items. Balance a single item such as a rug
or jeans jacket with a few extra items.
