Take items out of the drum and restart the wash cycle.
Sud or Sd
You can see that too many suds are in the washing machine. When it is impossible to rinse out the excess suds, the washer will not be able to spin out any of the water. When there is a sud or sd displayed, the washer automatically extends the rinse time, in order to remove the excess suds. During that time, the washer pauses the tumbling and adds water to the tank in order to rinse it more. When the pause is reached, the bubbles in the suds in the liquid can break. So the pause and rinsing are necessary and may occur several times in order to get rid of the suds.
Make sure to use a detergent that is high efficiency. If you use no splash or easy pour liquid chlorine bleach, there could be a risk that you will have too many suds. It is possible that this type of liquid chlorine bleach contains a thickening agent, which may cause excessive suds in washers. If that is the case, then run the washer with the bleach.
