Frequently Asked Questions - MCSFLW27W Magic Chef

How do I remove the transport bolts from my Magic Chef MCSFLW27W washing machine?

Before using the washer, you must remove the transport bolts from the back. Loosen all bolts, remove them, and insert the provided transport hole plugs into the holes. Keep the bolts for future use. Also ensure the small foam triangle is removed with the bottom foam piece.

What should I do if the door won't open?

The door is locked for safety during a cycle. If the cycle has ended but the door remains locked, wait for the interior to cool. If there is a power failure or other issue, you can manually open the door by pulling the emergency door release cord located inside the lower access panel. Only use this when the unit is off and safe.

How do I clean the detergent drawer?

Open the detergent drawer, press down the arrow and slide it out. Lift the clip to remove the softener cover, then wash all sections with water. Replace the softener cover and push the drawer back into position.

What does the error code E30 mean on my MCSFLW27W?

Error code E30 indicates the door is not properly closed. Check if clothes are stuck in the door, then close it firmly and restart the cycle. If the problem persists, contact customer service.

How do I save and use My Cycle?

First, select the desired wash settings (cycle, temperature, spin speed, etc.). Then press and hold the [Spin] button for 3 seconds to save them as My Cycle. To use it later, simply turn the cycle selector to My Cycle.

Can I add clothes after the wash cycle has started?

Yes, but only before the drum fills with water. Press the [Start/Pause] button for 3 seconds (or push the button for 1 second on some models) until the door unlocks. Wait for the drum to stop, add garments, close the door, and press [Start/Pause] to resume.

How do I clean the drain pump filter?

Open the lower access cover. Remove the emergency drain hose cap to drain any water. Then unscrew the filter by turning counterclockwise. Remove any objects (coins, etc.) and clean the filter under water. Reinstall by turning clockwise and replace the hose cap.

What is the maximum washing capacity of this washer?

The maximum washing capacity is 26.4 lbs (12.0 kg). Note that the maximum drying capacity is smaller (17.6 lbs/8.0 kg for combo models). For best results, do not overload the drum.

How do I thaw the washing machine if it freezes?

Disconnect the power. Pour warm water over the tap connection to loosen the inlet pipe. Remove the inlet pipe and immerse it in warm water. Pour warm water into the drum and wait 10 minutes. Reconnect everything and check operation. Ensure ambient temperature is above 32°F (0°C) before reuse.
