Load is too small; Appliance is tilted; Laundry gathered to one side; Non-distributable items in drum (e.g., heavy single items); Transit bolts not removed; Machine not installed on level, solid floor

How to Fix

  1. 1

    Confirm UE is displayed

  2. 2

    Check if laundry is leaning to one side — redistribute laundry evenly in drum

    Check if washing machine is installed at an angle — adjust leveling feet to keep machine horizontal

  4. 4

    Verify all 4 transit bolts have been removed

  5. 5

    Confirm machine is on a solidly constructed, level floor

    Use load test mode: place 4.5-6.5 lbs (2-3 kg) of clothing, press Power, Rinse+Spin, then Start/Pause — verify stable at high spin

    If not stable, adjust feet and tighten all lock nuts against the base
