Sink, floor drain and standpipe must be able to handle 17 gal.

Are the laundry products in the correct dispenser?
Add the correct amounts of detergent (powdered or liquid),
liquid chlorine bleach, or fabric softener to the correct
dispenser. You can add powdered or liquid color-safe bleach
to the detergent dispenser. Be sure to match powdered
color-safe bleach with powdered detergent or match liquid
color-safe bleach with liquid detergent. Use only liquid
chlorine bleach in the bleach dispenser.
Load too wet
Did you use the right cycle for the load being washed?
Select a Fabric Select control setting with a higher spin
speed.
Did you use a cold rinse?
Cold rinses leave loads wetter than warm rinses. This is normal.
Residue or lint on load
Did you add detergent to the dispenser?
For best results, use the dispenser to dissolve the detergent.
Did you sort properly?
Sort lint givers (towels, chenille) from lint takers (corduroy,
synthetics). Also sort by color.
Did you overload the washer?
The wash load must be balanced. See "Starting Your
Washer" for maximum load size. Lint can be trapped in the
load if overloaded. Wash smaller loads.
Was paper or tissue left in pockets?
Did you use enough detergent?
Follow manufacturer's directions. Use enough detergent to
hold the lint in the water.
Is your water colder than 70°F (21°C)?
Wash water colder than 70°F (21°C) may not completely
dissolve the detergent.
Are you using a gentle wash cycle?
Consider using liquid detergent for slow speed settings such
as Delicates or Knits/Blends.
