Normal washer operation.

Lid must be closed for washer to run.
Washer will pause during certain phases of cycle. Do not  

interrupt cycle.

Washer may be tightly packed.

Remove several items, rearrange load evenly in basket, and add 

detergent. Close lid and press START/Pause.
Do not add more than 1 or 2 additional items after cycle has started 

to avoid tightly packing or unbalancing.

Washer not draining/ 

spinning, loads are  

still wet or spin light remains 

on (indicating  

that the washer was  

unable to pump out  

water within 10 minutes

Small items may have been caught 

in pump or between basket and tub, 

which can slow draining. 

Empty pockets and use garment bags for small items.

Use a cycle with a low spin speed.

Cycles with lower spin speeds remove less water than cycles  

with high spin speeds. Use the recommended cycle/speed spin for 

your garment. To remove extra water in the load, select Drain & Spin. 

Load may need to be rearranged to allow even distribution of the 

load in the basket.

The washer may be tightly packed  

or unbalanced.

Tightly packed or unbalanced loads may not allow the washer  

to spin correctly, leaving the load wetter than normal, leading 

to longer cycle times and longer dry times. Evenly arrange the 

wet load for balanced spinning. Select the Drain & Spin cycle 

to remove excess water. See “Using Your Washer” for loading 

recommendations.

Check plumbing for correct drain 

hose installation. Drain hose extends 

into standpipe farther  

than 4.5" (114 mm).

Check drain hose for proper installation. Use drain hose form  

and securely attach to drainpipe or tub. Do not tape over drain 

opening. Lower drain hose if the end is higher than 96" (2.4 m) 

above the floor. Remove any clogs from drain hose.

Too much detergent causing  

suds to slow or stop draining  

and spinning.

Always measure and follow detergent directions for your load.  

To remove extra suds, select Rinse & Spin. Do not add detergent.
