A:AnswerThe trick to shorten the cycle : (for a total time 35-40 mins) i use light to regular soil setting - use normal cycle and do NOT USE the TURBO WASH unless needed for very heavy soiled cloths like soccer uniforms. Do NOT use auto sensing for water. Use Deep water instead. The weighing and sensing takes alot of time. Plus I like extra water to clean unless you live in a drought dry area ( I experienced Harvey/ Ike / Rita and thunderstorms that dench Houston) plus - use 1 rinse with OR WITHOUT softener ( this is just a timing to add setting) If you read the manual - downloadable on internet using your model number- high water rinses the scum out of the drum better which means less damp water pockets that cause ofors in other models - especially front loaders. Recap: light soil or medium- Normal - Deep Water setting - 1 rinse and things move along nicely!
A:AnswerLid on this unit stays unlocked until the rinse and spin cycles start...
We were used to the old style Top loader and a lot has changed on the new models. The HE washers are definitely different from traditional, and I'm not sure if I'm really saving money on the water bill as we end up using the high water setting a lot.
If I were choosing again today, would probably choose a traditional washer and go with a Speed Queen.
A:AnswerThe washer takes anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour to complete a cycle using the Normal Wash Cycle. Some other factors to consider is how long the machine takes to fill to do the laundry in the Normal Wash cycle and how much water pressure you have coming to the machine. This will affect how long it will take the washer to complete the cycle using Normal Wash.
A:AnswerJust had this issue. I am sure you figured this out by now but for others...... Pop cap off top of agitator. There is a bolt at the bottom you have to remove. (ratchet set with long extension). Wiggle the agitator a bit to work it loose. Just had 3/4 of a bed sheet that got stuck in there.
A:AnswerThe wash takes way to long. Deep water wash spins water out of my machine. I wish I Never bought new “He” machine. My dryer finishes before my wash does. Not good.

A:AnswerYarnspinner there is a cycle called Drain & Spin on the machine. We haven't used it but according to the manual, it is for "Hand washed or dripping items"
A:AnswerKaren, please make sure that you are not using too much detergent. If too much detergent is used it will cause white residue. We also suggest running an affresh Washer cleaning cycle at least once a month to help keep the indie of the Washer clean. We hope this helps!
A:AnswerHello Don, yes there are different rinse options, 1 RINSE-This option is used to limit a cycle to one rinse. 2 RINSES-This option can be used to automatically add a second rinse to most cycles. 1 RINSE WITH FABRIC SOFTENER-This option must be selected if using fabric softener during a cycle. It ensures that fabric softener is added at the correct time in the rinse for even distribution. 2 RINSES WITH FABRIC SOFTENER-This option turns on both the Fabric Softener and the 2 Rinses option. Hopefully this information is beneficial to you. Thank you for your inquiry regarding our Maytag appliances!
