Washer not performing as expected (cont.)
Not using correct cycle for load type.
When using the Overnight Wash & Dry or Delicates cycle, you
should wash small loads. This ensures a gentle wash for your
garments without increasing cycle times.
The Overnight Wash & Dry cycle is designed for smaller load sizes
(2–4 items) of lightly soiled garments. If larger loads are washed in
this cycle, cycle time will be increased.
Normal washer operation. The cycle times vary automatically based on your water pressure,
water temperature, detergent, and clothes load. The options you
select will also affect the cycle times.
Cycle time changes or
cycle time too long
Excessive suds in washer.
Load may be out of balance.
When excessive suds are detected, a special suds routine
automatically starts to remove extra suds and ensure proper rinsing
of your garments. This routine will add time to the original cycle.
When load unbalance occurs, a washing process will start to
redistribute the load. This may lengthen the cycle time. Avoid
washing single items. Balance a single item such as a rug or jeans
jacket with a few extra items.
