INLET ERROR

Water supply faucets are not fully open.

  • Make sure that the water faucets are fully open.

Water inlet hoses are kinked, pinched, or crushed.

  • Make sure that the hoses are not kinked, pinched or crushed behind or under the washer. Be careful when moving the washer during cleaning or maintenance.

Water inlet filters are clogged.

  • Clean the inlet filters. See MAINTENANCE.

Water supply pressure to faucet or house is too low.

  • Check another faucet in the house to make sure that household water pressure is adequate and flow is not restricted.

  • Disconnect the water inlet hoses from the washer and run a few gallons of water through the hoses to flush out any dirt.

  • If flow is too low, contact a plumber to have the water supply lines repaired.

Water supply connected with leak-limiting hoses.

  • The use of hoses designed to limit leaks is not recommended. Leak limiting hoses can trip falsely and prevent the washer from filling.

UNBALANCE ERROR

The load is too small.

  • Add additional items to allow the washer to balance the load.

Heavy articles are mixed with lighter items.

  • Always try to wash articles of somewhat similar weight to allow the washer to evenly distribute the weight of the load for spinning.

The load is out of balance.

  • Manually redistribute the load if articles have become tangled, preventing the automatic rebalancing from working properly.
