A: It has a 4.1 cu. ft. capacity, spacious enough to handle a king-size comforter. Q: What wash cycles and settings are available? A: The washer includes eight cycles (Normal, Heavy Duty, Delicates, Fast Wash, and more), four soil levels, and four water level options: Auto, Deep Fill, Medium, and Low. Q: Does this washer use an agitator or impeller? A: It’s a top-load model equipped with a traditional agitator. Q: What type of detergent dispenser does it have? A: The dispenser features separate compartments for detergent, bleach, and fabric softener. Q: How does the Auto water level feature work? A: When set to “Auto,” the washer detects the load’s size and weight, then adjusts the water level accordingly. Q: Why isn’t my washer filling with water? A: Check the following: * Confirm that both hot and cold water faucets are fully open. * Inspect hoses to ensure they aren’t kinked or twisted. * Remove the hoses and clean the inlet valve screens if clogged. * Make sure the lid is closed—an open lid will stop operation. * If the washer drains immediately, verify that the standpipe height is at least 36 inches to prevent siphoning. Q: Why won’t my washer spin? A: Possible causes include: * Unbalanced load: Redistribute clothes evenly in the drum and restart. * Lid switch issue: A broken switch can stop the spin cycle, as it won’t detect the lid is closed. * Clogged drain pump: Debris may block drainage, leaving water in the tub. * Worn or broken drive belt: If the motor runs but the drum doesn’t spin, the belt may need replacement.
