Whirlpool Duet W10254043C Manual De Usuario

■

 

When excessive suds are detected, a suds routine 
automatically starts. This routine removes extra suds and 
assures proper rinsing of your garments. “SUD” is displayed 
during rinsing and at the end of the cycle to inform you that 
Suds Routine was activated. Use only HE (High Efficiency) 
detergents.

■

 

Select PAUSE/CANCEL twice to cancel the cycle.

 

Is the washer door firmly shut?

 

The door must be completely closed for the washer to 
operate. The door may look closed, but may not be latched. 
Open the door and close firmly.

Were you washing a large load?

 

Before you close the washer door, check for laundry items 
sticking out beyond the door opening. Leave enough space in 
the washer to allow the clothes to tumble freely. An 
overloaded basket may keep the door from shutting 
completely. Reduce your load size if needed.

Press POWER and select START.

■

 

Select PAUSE/CANCEL twice to cancel the cycle. Select 
DRAIN/SPIN if there is excessive water in the washer. 

Re-select cycle and press START. If the problem remains, call 
for service.

The washer must be level. The four feet should be properly 
installed, and the nuts should be tightened against the washer 
cabinet.

As water is drained from the washer, you may hear air being 
pulled through the pump. This happens during the end of 
draining. It is normal.

You may hear metal items touching the washer drum. This is 
normal.

Refer to the “Installation Instructions” for flooring 
requirements. Noise and vibration may be reduced by 
securing a piece of ¾" (19.1 mm) plywood underneath your 
washer. The plywood may extend underneath both washer 
and dryer to keep them at equal heights.

Check household plumbing for leaks.

sure to match powdered color-safe bleach with powdered 
detergent or match liquid color-safe bleach with liquid 
detergent.
