Maytag Customer FAQ

To restart your Maytag washing machine after an out-of-balance load, first, ensure the load is balanced by redistributing the clothes evenly in the drum. Close the lid and select the "Spin" cycle on the control panel. Press the "Start" button to begin the final spin cycle. If your machine has a "Rinse & Spin" option, you can use that as well, as it typically includes a spin cycle. Make sure to monitor the machine to ensure it is functioning properly.

If your refrigerator is freezing food that shouldn't be frozen, check the temperature settings. The ideal temperature for a refrigerator is around 37°F (3°C). If it's set too low, adjust the dial to a higher setting. Ensure that the vents inside the fridge are not blocked by food items, as this can restrict airflow and cause uneven cooling. Also, consider the placement of the refrigerator; it should not be exposed to external sources of heat. If issues persist, there may be a problem with the thermostat or other components that may need professional attention.

You can usually find a digital version of the owner's manual for your refrigerator on the Maytag website. Look for the model number of your appliance, which is typically located inside the fridge or on the door frame. The manual will provide you with important information, usage tips, and maintenance guidelines.

If your Maytag washer will not start with clothes in the tub, it may be due to a few reasons. One could be overload. Your washer has a limit to the amount of laundry it can safely and effectively clean. Ensure you are not overloading the machine - usually filling the tub until it's about 3/4 full is recommended. Another reason could be a faulty lid switch or door lock. Your washer will not start if it cannot detect that the lid is securely closed. If the mechanism is faulty, it may need to be replaced. Lastly, ensure that your machine is plugged in and the power source is working properly. If these issues persist, it may require professional service.
