Attention! The text in this document has been recognized automatically. To view the original document, you can use the "Original mode".

If you need service or assistance,
we suggest you follow these four steps:
1. Before calling for assistance...
Performance problems often result from
little things you can find and fix yourself
without tools of any kind.
If your washer does not fill:
• Is the power supply cord plugged into a
live circuit with the proper voltage?
• Are both faucets open?
• Have you checked your home’s main
tuses or circuit breaker box?
• Are the water supply hoses kinked?
• Is the Timer Control Knob set and pulled
out?
If your washer does not spin?
• Is the lid closed?
• Is the power supply cord plugged into a
live circuit with the proper voltage?
• Have you checked your home’s main
fuses or circuit breaker box?
If your washer stops during a cycle:
• Remember, the washer pauses briefly at
different times in each cycle. These
pauses are normal.
If your washer fills and drains without
running:
• Make sure that the Timer Control Knob is
pointing to START or *.
Make sure the drain hose is higher than
the water level in the washer. If it isn’t...
• The washer may seem to be draining
during wash and rinse cycles.
• Water can siphon out. (See “Installation
Instructions!’)
