Address soon - your appliance may not work properly

What This Means

Load is too small; Appliance is tilted or not level; Laundry is gathered to one side of drum; Non-distributable items placed in drum (e.g., single heavy blanket); Eccentricity exceeded allowed threshold after repeated disentangling attempts

How to Fix

  1. 1

    Check if UE is displayed

  2. 2

    Check if laundry leans toward one side; if yes, redistribute laundry evenly in drum

  3. 3

    Check if washing machine is installed at an angle; if yes, adjust height of leveling feet to keep machine horizontal

  4. 4

    Turn leveling feet clockwise to raise, counterclockwise to lower; tighten all lock nuts after leveling

    Installation check: remove all 4 transit bolts; confirm machine can handle two different types of blanket materials

  6. 6

    Place unbalance test part (rubber) or 4.5-6.5 lbs (2-3 kg) of clothing in drum, start QC test mode at high spin and verify stability

  7. 7

    If not stable, adjust feet accordingly, then tighten all lock nuts
