Problem Possible Causes Solutions
Wrinkling y Did you remove the load immediately after
it finished?
y Did you overload the tub?
y Did you reverse the hot and cold water
inlets?
y Remove the load immediately after it
finishes.
y Do not overload the tub.
y Hot water rinse can cause garments to
wrinkle. Check the inlet hose connections.
Power will not turn on y Is the power cord plugged in properly?
y Has a house fuse blown, a circuit breaker
tripped, or a power outage occurred?
y Make sure that the plug is secured in a
grounded 3-prong, 120 V (60 Hz) outlet.
y Reset the circuit breaker or replace the
fuse. Do not increase the fuse capacity. If
the problem is a circuit overload, have it
corrected by a qualified electrician.
The door does not open
when the cycle pauses or
finishes y Is the temperature in the tub too high?
y Is the water level in the washer high?

programmed cycle, or press the SPIN
button.
The wash cycle time is

automatically adjusts the cycle time for
the amount of laundry, water pressure,

conditions.

tub y Has the incorrect detergent been used?
y Did you clean the tub periodically?
