CHOOSING THE RIGHT DETERGENT

Use only High Efciency detergents. The package will be
marked “HE” or “High Efciency.” Low-water washing creates
excessive sudsing with a non-HE detergent. Using non-HE
detergent will likely result in longer cycle times and reduced
rinsing performance. It may also result in component failure and,
over time, buildup of mold or mildew. HE detergents should be
low-sudsing and quick-dispersing to produce the right amount
of suds for the best performance. They should hold soil in
suspension so it is not redeposited onto clean clothes. Not all
detergents labeled as High Efciency are identical in formulation
and their ability to reduce suds. For example, natural, organic,
or homemade HE detergents may generate a high level of suds.
If you use one of these and see an “Sd” or “Sud” error code
appear in the display, consider using a different HE detergent.
Always follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions to
determine the amount of detergent to use. Do not go over the
Max line on the dispenser. See “Using the Dispenser Drawer”
or “Using the Optimal Dispense Drawer” for more information.
Use only High Efficiency
(HE) detergent.

About Detergent Concentration

Today’s liquid HE detergents are concentrated. Most brands of
concentrated HE detergent will show the level of concentration
on the bottle. If so, simply set the concentration level in the
Optimal Dispense menu to match the level shown on the bottle.
However, if the detergent bottle does not give the concentration,
it can be easily calculated. Just divide the package size in uid
ounces by the number of loads. Then refer to the chart below
to nd the concentration.
If you do not get your desired cleaning results, try using a lower
concentration number. If you have excess suds, try using a
higher concentration number.
Concentration Number of ounces ÷ number of loads
2X 1.5–2.49
3X 0.9–1.49
4X 0.7–0.89
5X 0.5–0.69
6X 0.3–0.49
NOTES:
A small amount of water may remain in the dispensers from
the previous wash cycle. This is normal.
See “About Detergent Concentration” for information on
detergent concentration.
To ensure you have enough detergent in the dispenser,
the display will show the detergent level (Low and open lid).
To add single-dose and Oxi-type boosters, see the “Using
Your Washer” section.
1. Open the dispenser drawer.
2. Add laundry products as described in steps 4–6 in the
“Using Your Washer” section.
3. Slowly close the dispenser drawer. Make sure it is
completely closed.

If the clothes are very wet at the end of the cycle, there are a few possible reasons for this issue: 1. Overloading: Make sure you are not overloading the washing machine. Overloading can prevent proper water drainage and spinning, resulting in wet clothes. Follow the load size recommendations provided. 2. Improper spin speed: Check the spin speed setting for the cycle you are using. Ensure that the spin speed is set to an appropriate level for the type of load you are washing. Higher spin speeds help remove more water from the clothes. 3. Drainage issues: Check if the washing machine is properly draining the water. Make sure the drain hose is not kinked or clogged. Additionally, ensure that the drain filter is clean and free from debris. 4. Unbalanced load: An unbalanced load can prevent the washing machine from spinning properly. If the load is unevenly distributed, redistribute the clothes evenly in the drum and restart the cycle. 5. Incorrect cycle selection: Ensure that you are selecting the appropriate cycle for the type of clothes you are washing. Some cycles may have lower spin speeds or shorter spin times, resulting in wetter clothes.

Can't find the answer to your question in the manual? You may find the answer to your question in the FAQs about the Maytag MHW5630HW below.

What temperature should I use for my laundry?

The washing label of your garment shows the recommended washing temperature.

Do I need to use an anti-scaling agent for my washing machine?

It is not necessary to use an anti-scaling agent. Scale deposits can be prevented by limiting washing at high temperatures and using the recommended amount of detergent per wash.

How do I prevent my washing machine from smelling?

Unpleasant odours can be avoided by occasionally washing at 60 degrees and using the recommended amount of detergent per wash.

Why is my washing machine not turning on?

Ensure that the power cord is properly plugged into a functioning electrical outlet. Check if the circuit breaker or fuse related to the washing machine is tripped or blown. Make sure the door is securely closed, as the machine will not start if the door is ajar.

How can I resolve excessive vibration during the wash cycle?

Confirm that the washing machine is level by adjusting the leveling feet underneath. Avoid overloading the machine, as it can lead to imbalance. Ensure that all four shipping bolts have been removed from the back of the machine, as their presence can cause excessive vibration.

My clothes are not coming out clean, what could be the issue?

Check that you have selected an appropriate wash cycle, as different cycles address various levels of soil and fabric types. Properly distribute the clothes inside the drum for efficient cleaning. Avoid overloading the machine, as it can hinder the washing action and prevent adequate soil removal.

Why is the cycle time taking longer than usual?

Examine if any additional options or features, such as extra rinse or extended spin, have been selected, as they can prolong the cycle duration. Verify that the water supply is sufficient and the water pressure is within the recommended range. A delay may also occur if the machine detects an unbalanced load and attempts to redistribute it for effective spinning.

How can I address unpleasant odors coming from the washing machine?

Regularly clean the machine by running a Washer Cleaning cycle with an appropriate cleaner. After each wash, leave the door slightly ajar to allow air circulation and prevent the growth of mold and mildew. Additionally, wipe down the gasket and the inside of the door regularly to remove any residue or moisture buildup.
