How do I run a test cycle after installation?
After installation, run a test cycle to make sure the washer is operating properly.
This helps you confirm the water inlet connections, leveling, and drain hose installation.
Loading the Washer
Load the washer with 6 thick bath towels (approx. 6 lb / 2.7 kg).
For a more accurate test, run the cycle with laundry rather than with an empty drum.
Selecting the Cycle
Press the [Power] button to turn on the washer.
Turn the knob to select Quick Wash or Rinse+Spin. Select a
shorter cycle for a quicker test.
Press the [Start/Pause] button to start the cycle.

Make sure the washer fills properly, does not rock or vibrate excessively, and drains well during the spin cycle.
Caution
-
If the washer leaks or vibrates excessively during the test, stop the cycle
immediately.
Check the hose connections and ensure the washer is level.
