How To Use A Maytag Washer-Full Tutorial
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
In this video, I show you how to use a Maytag washer. It is a complete tutorial and I go over all of the basic instructions for using the washer. The specific Maytag washer that I am using is a smart washer that connects to your wifi. This is an advanced model, but I explain the basic process that will apply to the majority of Maytag washers that you might encounter. With that being said, it is really easy to learn how to use, and the most difficult part is learning which cycles you should be using for the specific loads of clothing that you will be washing.

I need a tutorial on how to use a Maytag Smart Dryer. I really appreciate this video. I didn't know how to use the washing machine until I saw this video.
THANK YOU SO MUCH just moved in and I have this brand machine
Thank you very much. You have made my day.
There is ABSOLUTELY no way these washers are "energy efficient" they run twice as long, using twice the electric.. And they don't wash the clothes worth a s**t unless you keep it on max fill.. If i could throw this thing through the front window of maytag HQ i would...
Love love Maytag washing machine!
We should start a recall list . This is a horrible washing machine
Thank you its exclusive instructions Can you plz tell more about Cycle Signal what is it about thanks
Nicely done!!! This helped!
Oh my! Thank you so much! As a first time user of this washer, you did help me!
Thank you, just got mine. Very helpful !
Thank you so much. I just bought the Maytag Smart Washer and was unsure how to use it.
I have this exact washer and I've noticed that on some settings such as Normal/Regular and Delicates, when it is time for the rinse cycle, the clothes do not swish/agitate in water; the drum keeps spinning at a rather fast rate and the clothes stick to the sides. A little water releases into the drum (maybe 2 or 3 cups) a couple of times during the rinse cycle. Is this normal? The clothes do swish/agitate in water when the machine is on the towels or heavy duty setting.

on normal/regular its normal its a spray rinse i have the exact same washer so i use the heavy duty cycle and it will also do a spray rinse on quick wash here a tip make sure to activate the extra rinse function if you use normal/regular cycle quick wash and delicate because it will preform a spray rinse before going into the main rinse
Thanks for this vid. The instruction book is lacking a lot of info.
Best one so far that I did see. 🙂
What does deep fill mean. I wanted to see liquid soap & liquid powder & fabric softener. Thanks
please explain custom cycle option
Is there a lint filter that has to be cleaned out?
Thank you for this dds
Same problem everybody else seems to have. Water level doesn't cover everything. Deep fill button doesn't seem to work. Maybe has to be on certain setting? Any help?
thank you for sharing. I did what you mentioned on the video but after the wash the downy is still there.

Mine too! Did you find out how to fix that?
Never fills with enough water on any setting! Stay away! Go with a front loader!
At the start of a wash, it will be "sensing" and then "fill" for a very short time. Just enough to push the soap through, but none of the water stays in the drum. Then it starts "washing". It's being agitated without any water in the drum for about 6 to 8 minutes. Then it will be "sensing" again and then "fill" again with water staying in the drum this time. It does this 3 to 4 times before actually washing the clothes. I don't like the way it agitates without any water in the beginning. Is that what it is supposed to do?

yes this process is actually normal and is known as “beating against the rock” back in the old days. The washer agitates the laundry in phases where it’ll fill the drum with barely water (sensing), then agitate, fill it more (sensing), and agitate again, (sensing) and then more water, and more agitation until it reaches its set water height. then the Washing cycle begins.

@@opalsandpearls3443 out of the box, the Washing machine is set on “Auto Fill.” on every load. If you want your water to be at a specific height, change the options using the “DEEP FILL” button. for example, I use the normal setting so I first change the dial to normal, then i push the “DEEP FILL” button to my preferred height. I have a lot of laundry to do so i typically choose (MEDIUM). That way, your water height is always consistent
Can i load the water first without door closing to dilute solution than add clothes in
Thanks ALOT
The biggest problem is is Maytag is no longer Maytag. I found out recently that whirlpool I had bought them out in 2006 I have a Maytag washer from 2004 and tried to get it fixed recently and the tech told me that it was a limited edition, so no parts not even a belt is able to be gotten And I was thinking about buying this particular washer and dryer but after seeing all the comments and everything no I won’t be buying it looks to me that Maytag quality has went to shit

My mom bought a Maytag Bravos back in 2008 and what a piece of crap it was. Within 5 years or so the tub bearings went out and replaced them. It always seem to have spin balancing issues and the machine would display "UL" code and stop at the 15 min when the washer was starting to spin smoothly. Moms old Maytag washer never had this issue. Keep the washers simple to use, durable and get rid of that balancing sensor! Some engineer needs to be fired from Maytag for making shitty washing machines. What the engineers experience in their laboratory is totally different from the real world in the use of washing machines
Just took delivery of same maytag model, one of the problems I've run into is ,I load the clothes I put in detergent, I hit the button for tap water to rinse the measuring cap then next I measure out softener and also rinse the cap then if I need bleach I put that in also rinsing that also ,I then close the lid and go to start the machine and its locked up and counting down from three hours to soak ,I further try changing the cycles and I get, "shut off and restart", by doing that it automatically drains everything I put in....the question i have is what am I doing wrong or is there a way to cancel that soak time and unlock the system when it does that .

I would also love a simplified answer to this odd behavior. 😵💫 I was under the impression that the faucet was independent of any cycles. Although I'd love to use that soak function, why am I being FORCED to soak my laundry by default?😶🌫️
my new maytag washers has 3 compartments. one for fabric softner one for washing detergent. whats the other one for?? Is this for prewash detergent?? If so to i add detergent in both so there's detergent when it goes to regular wash??

We just keep the washer on "Colors" and use the "deep fill" option and only adjust the temperature. Otherwise the clothes don't come clean. This is the worst purchase we've ever made. I will never buy another Maytag product after this ..
I tell everyone, go buy GE first, then rank this, every since 2020, most machines are the same. I just bought this, im hoping it works great
I have a model like this and it's a piece of crap. Have had it only 8 months and today it won't run at all. Turn it on, hold down the bottom button below the power for 3 seconds and it goes from SENSE to DONE after making a few noises. I only use the stupid thing once a week with NO HEAVY loads at all.

The lid will be LOCKED if the washer is currently active. to unlock the washer, PAUSE the washer using the “pause/play” button. Wait for the washer to finish spinning for a couple of seconds. then you can open it. The reason it locks is because it is a safety feature to prevent water from flying out
You forgot to explain the Custom Cycle--which is what I was looking for.

THIS MACHINE IS TERRIBLE!!! Less an a year old. The right options for washing, don't work. Hardly any water would be in tub to wash. We replaced the water intake valve. And it will NOT rinse right. Just like the other reviews say, spins fast and spits some water on it. We HAVE to do extra rinse for it to actually rinse. Also did a factory reset which helped us get the right side options to work. A WASTE of $900!!!

If you want bleach to fill the drum, What you can do is by adding the bleach directly into the drum before choosing a setting on the dial. Next to the detergent tray you should see a WATER “💧” ICON. Push that button and water will start dispensing. When you want it to stop, push the button again. Then you can set your laundry in to the drum. Now choose a setting on the dial such as “NORMAL” or “WHITE” or “DELICATES” or “TOWELS”
If you’d like a washer and dryer that wash & dry then this set isn’t for you😢🤬🤬🤬 I hate the washer it barely adds water on even the max fill and dryer doesn’t even use hot air , took 6 hours for 4 towels to dry, and 1 load of clothes has to be restarted 2-3 times
you skipped over the deep fill option, so annoying serious

There is a dispenser front right corner. You put in and it dispenses at the appropriate time.
What is that horribly loud screeching noise the machine makes for 1-2 seconds when turning on ? Nothing is moving at this point , is it a water valve moving to open ? That's what I am thinking but I haven't found an answer. Anyone else have this problem ? It doesn't effect the operation of the machine and only happens on start up. Once it was REALLY LOUD ! and sounded like the wheels on a freight train screeching. The machine is over a year old now. I HAVE TO GO WITH THE OPINION THAT THIS IS JUNK. THAT SELF CLEANING CYCLE IS ABSOLUTE B.S. ! ! AND THERE IS NO OVER-RIDE OR WARNING THAT IT IS THE NEXT CYCLE. MAKE THESE NEW MACHINES BETTER NOT MORE COMPLICATED .
