Oorzaak: Drain hose top positioned incorrectly; drain hose fits too tightly in standpipe or is taped

Position drain hose top at least 39" above floor; ensure drain hose is loose yet fits securely without tape; hose needs an air gap

Oorzaak: Fabric softener not added according to manufacturer's directions

Measure fabric softener and slowly pour into dispenser; wipe up all spills; dilute fabric softener in the dispenser

Oorzaak: Normal cycle operation; washer pauses for about 2 minutes during certain cycles

Allow the cycle to continue; some cycles feature periods of agitation and soak

Oorzaak: Load not unloaded promptly; wrong cycle selected; washer overloaded; wash water not warm enough; hot and cold water hoses reversed

Unload washer as soon as it stops; use cycles with shorter wash times and low wash and spin speeds; balance load and do not overload; use warm or hot wash water if safe; check that hot and cold hoses are connected to correct faucets

Oorzaak: Load not properly sorted; wash temperature too low; not enough detergent; hard water; hot and cold water hoses reversed; washing many loads

Sort dark clothes from whites and lights to prevent dye transfer; use hot or warm washes if safe; use more detergent for heavy soils; check water hardness; verify hot and cold hoses are connected correctly; water temperature may decrease with frequent washing

Select cycle with higher spin speed; evenly distribute load without exceeding top row of basket holes; install iron filter if necessary

Oorzaak: Improper sorting; washer overloaded; incorrect water level; not enough detergent; lint givers washed with lint takers; line drying; paper or tissue left in pockets; cold wash water; detergent not completely dissolved

Sort lint givers from lint takers by fabric type and color; balance load and wash smaller loads; select correct water level for load size; use enough detergent to hold lint in water; use warm or hot water; follow proper cycle time and agitation speed; use dryer to remove lint

Oorzaak: Washer overloaded; sharp items left in pockets; strings and sashes not tied; items damaged before washing; chlorine bleach applied improperly; care label instructions not followed

Balance load and do not overload; empty pockets and remove sharp items; tie strings and sashes to avoid tangling; mend rips before washing; do not pour chlorine bleach directly onto load; follow manufacturer's care label instructions
