Ensure the washing machine is properly plugged in and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Check that the lid is closed securely, as the machine will not start if the lid is open.
Check the drain hose for any kinks or clogs. Make sure the drain pump is functioning correctly and that the filter is not blocked by debris.
Ensure the washing machine is level by adjusting the feet. Avoid overloading the machine and distribute clothes evenly inside the drum.
Check for any foreign objects in the drum or pump. Inspect the drum bearings for wear and replace if necessary.
Remove the dispenser drawer and wash it with warm water and mild detergent. Ensure all residue is cleared before reinserting it into the machine.
Regularly clean the drum and detergent dispenser, inspect hoses for wear, and ensure the machine is level. Run a cleaning cycle with a washing machine cleaner monthly.
Unplug the machine for about 5 minutes, then plug it back in. This can clear many error codes. Refer to the user manual for specific codes.
Check hoses and connections for leaks, inspect the door seal for damage, and ensure the detergent drawer is not overfilled.
Use the appropriate amount of detergent, select the correct wash cycle for the load, and avoid overloading the machine for optimal performance.
Leave the door open after each wash to allow the drum to dry, regularly clean the gasket and drum, and use a washing machine cleaner to ensure freshness.
