Reasons

Water level seems low, Not
enough water

This is normal

During the wash cycle water may not entirely cover the top
of clothes. Infusor™ wash technology is at work and will
provide excellent cleaning.

Detergent

Use High Efficiency detergent

The use of HE detergent will optimize wash performance
and prevent over sudsing.

Fabric Softener

Always use dispenser located on the
top of the Infusor™ when
using Fabric Softener.

Using the dispenser will ensure optimal distribution of
fabric softener and avoid spotting on garments.

“EcoFill” Load Size Option

Washer will not fill with water when
lid is open

Unit will not operate with lid open during "EcoFill". This is
for your safety - basket spins to aid in load sensing – also
allows option to perform properly.

Seems too quiet

This is normal

HydroWave™ system is very quiet during portions of the
wash cycle. This action allows for optimal wash
performance.

Pauses

This is normal

At the beginning of the Cycle (with lid open or closed) the
smart drive system is sensing the load; as a result, there
will not be any noise.

“Swoosh” or “zip” sound

This is normal

The machine uses a (no gear) direct drive system. This is
the sound of the motor rotating back and forth to agitate
your laundry.
