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.
Q
Heavily unbalanced loads can cause the washer to vibrate excessively during spin,
and may cause it to move from its original position. In
ex~eme
cases {usually 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
hdess
noise.
To correct, stop the washer by pushing in the Cycle Selector knob, open
tie
lid and
redistribute the load
evenly
about the wash basket. Close the lid and restart.
