Error Code: UE Difficulty: Easy
Problem: Unbalanced load detected during spin cycle
How to Fix UE Error
- Pause cycle and redistribute laundry evenly around drum circumference.
- Remove 1-2 bulky items if overloaded (max 80% drum capacity).
- Ensure large items (blankets, rugs) are balanced with smaller items.
- Restart cycle.
- If persistent: Level machine using adjustable feet (front feet turn clockwise to raise, counter-clockwise to lower; rear feet auto-level).
- Check suspension rods for damage – access requires removing top panel (3 screws at rear) and inspecting 4 suspension rods at drum corners for broken springs or detached hooks.
- Test spin cycle empty to verify mechanical balance before reloading.
