Solutions to Common Inquiries

Normal Operating

Sounds

You may or may not hear the following

sounds from your new washer:

A. DRAIN HOSE The washer has a

ﬂexible drain hose to carry water from

the washer to the stand pipe of your

home. You will hear water ﬂowing into

your stand pipe. This is a normal part

of the operation of the washer.

B. WATER VALVES/DISPENSER As

water enters the dispenser system,

it is common to hear a water ﬂowing

sound. This normal sound will vary

slightly based on the water pressure in

your home.

C. DOOR LOCK Your washer is

equipped with a door lock with an

electric solenoid. There will be a

clicking sound as the washer door

is being locked or unlocked.

D. DRAIN/RECIRCULATION PUMPS

Your washer is equipped with multiple

high velocity system pumps. It is

normal to hear humming and gurgling

sounds as water is either pumped

from the washer during the drain

phase or recirculated during the

prewash and wash phases. Both

of these sounds are normal and

indicate that your pump is functioning

correctly.

E. HIGH SPEED MOTOR A power-

ful motor is used to drive the drum

to high spin speeds to extract water

from your load. You will hear a sound

associated with these higher spin

speeds. This sound is normal and will

vary slightly as the spin speed varies

with load size and cycle selected.

CAUTION

Abnormal, on-going sounds may be an

indication of a pending washer failure

and should be investigated by a quali-

ﬁed technician. Refer to “Noise” section

of Service Prevention Checklist in this

manual.
