The display shows:
• Load is too small.
• Load is out of balance.
• Add 1 or 2 similar items to help balance the load.
• Rearrange items to help balance the load.
• The washer has an imbalance detection and correction sys-
tem. If individual heavy articles are loaded (bath mat, bath
robe, etc.) and the imbalance is too great, the washer will
make several attempts to restart the spin cycle. If an
imbalance is still detected, the washer will stop and the
error code will be displayed.
The display shows:
• Thermistor error
• The water temperature sensor is faulty. Unplug the washer
and call for service.
The display shows:
• The water level sensor is not
working correctly.
• Close the water taps, unplug the washer, and call for
service.
The display shows:
• Thermal overload protection circuit
in the motor has been tripped.
• Allow the washer to stand for 30 minutes to allow the motor
to cool; then restart the cycle. If the LE error code still
appears, unplug the washer and call for service.
Staining
• Laundry products were added
directly to the tub or onto the laun-
dry.
• Washer not unloaded promptly.
• Laundry not sorted properly.
• Load the laundry products into the dispenser.
• Always remove items from the washer as soon as the cycle
is completed.
• Always wash dark colors separately from light colors and
whites to prevent discoloration. If possible, do not wash
heavily soiled items with lightly soiled ones.
Wrinkling
• Washer not unloaded promptly.
• Washer overloaded.
• Hot and cold water inlet hoses are
reversed.
• Always remove items from the washer as soon as the cycle
is completed.
• The washer can be fully loaded, but the tub should not be
tightly packed with items. The lid of the washer should close
easily.
• Hot water rinse can set wrinkles in garments.
Check the inlet hose connections.
NOTE:
If an error message is displayed for 4 minutes, the water in the tub will automatically drain. An alarm will sound
1 minute prior to draining and the original error code will continue to be displayed.
