A sharp, distinctive sound will be heard at the end of each spin period as the motor
stops and the spin brake inside the transmission “locks in.” This sound is normal.
. When using the
SPOTSCRUBBER Cycle,
a sharp distinctive sound will be heard soon
after agitation begins. This is the sound of the water recirculation system cutting off
to keep
tie
concentrated detergent solution in the Mini-Basket tub.
●
Heavily unbalanced loads can cause
tie
washer to vibrate excessively during spin,
and may cause it to move from its original position. In extreme cases
(usuNly
occurs
when washing a single, heavy item or a small load when water level is set higher
than necessary), the spin basket may strike the outer tub, creating a loud but harmless
noise. To correct, open the lid and redistribute the load evenly about the wash basket.
Close the lid and restart.

..such
as between wash and spin or
between
