Full breakdown →Official manual
Whirlpool does not publish a direct PDF link for the WFW560CH. The manual is served from a model lookup page, and it only works with the full model number including the suffix — for this model that is WFW560CHW0.
Entering the base number alone returns “model not found”, which is the single most common reason people cannot find their manual.

- F1E1The main control board (ACU) reported an internal fault.
- F2E5The user interface panel and the main control board do not match.
- F3E1The washer cannot read the water level.
