Water Leaks
Check the following for 
proper installation:
Load not completely 
covered in water
Water level not visible on door or 
does not cover clothes.
This is normal for an HE front load washer. The washer senses 
load sizes and adds the correct amount of water for optimal 
cleaning.
Washer not performing as expected
The door will lock unlock and lock again. You will hear three 
clicks after pushing START. This is normal.
Door locking or unlocking.
Not using HE detergent or using too 
much HE detergent.
Only use HE detergent. Suds from regular detergents can 
cause leaking from the door or rear of cabinet. Always measure 
detergent and follow manufacturer’s directions based on your 
load requirements.
Water or suds leaking 
from door or rear of 
cabinet
Residue on door glass.
Periodically clean the the underside of the glass window to 
avoid potential leaks.
