Common Operation Issues
•Clothes do not dry within 120 Minutes
•The washer will wash ~ 12 pounds of clothes at once but
the unit only designed to dry 6.6 lbs. of clothes within 2
hours
•6.6 Lbs. is approximately 2 full outfits
•This unit uses energy saving vent less condensation drying,
different from traditional vented drying
•Condensation drying operates like a cold drink on a hot day
where the cold surface of the glass attracts moisture to the
outside of the glass.
•The condensation dryer circulates air through the drum, but
instead of being vented back out, it is passed through a heat
exchanger. This heat exchanger is essentially a cooling
surface, attracting moisture. The moisture drips into a
drainpipe. After passing through the heat exchanger the air
is reheated and blown back into the drum. This process is
repeated throughout the dry cycle. 6

Common Operation Issues
•Cannot open the door
–This unit uses a safety interlock that locks the door
for three minutes after the cycle ends or the stop
button is pressed
•This is done to protect the user from flood damage and
excessive heat
•Clothes come out dry but wrinkled
–The smaller drum size may not allow garments to
“fluff”, try reducing the number of garments being
dried at one time.
7

Common Operation Issues
•Unit does not seem to fill properly
–Front load washers are designed to use less water
than older style washers,
–it is normal to see only 1/3 of the drum filled with
water
•The unit fills and pumps even during the dry
cycle
–This unit utilizes condensation drying which
requires cold water to speed the drying process.
This is normal
8

Common Operation Issues
•Musty Smell
–Inspect the door boot assembly
for mold etc.
–Be sure to use HE soap only
•Does not Drain
–Inspect the drain pump filter for
obstructions or debris
9

Common Operation Issues
•Water remains in the detergent cup after the
cycle
–On occasion, soap may clump or cake blocking the
drain hole in the detergent cup, if the water in the
cup is clear no service is required.
–Inspect the detergent dispenser for foreign matter or
debris which might block the siphon process
–Be sure to use only HE soap
•Incorrect water temperature
–Verify the Hot water line is connected to the red
fitting and cold to the blue fitting. (Do not assume)
•Verify both water supplies are turned on
–Verify the Hot water temperature is at least 120 F 10
