Magic Clean* Lint Filter; Understanding Normal Washer Sounds - Whirlpool 3951059C Use & Care Manual

MAGIC CLEAN
Your washer has a MAGIC CLEAN lint filter at the
bottom of the basket. Wash and rinse water flow
over the filter during agitation, separating the lint
from the water. The lint spins out of the system
during the spin part of the cycle.
If your washer drains into a tub, remove any lint
collected in the tub or strainer.

Your new washer may make sounds your old one
didn't. Because the sounds may be unfamiliar, you
may be concerned about them. Don't be; most of
them are normal.
The following describes some of the sounds you
may hear and what causes them.
During washing
When you select a small load size setting, your
washer has a lower water level. This may cause a
clicking sound from the upper part of the agitator.

(depending on your installation), you may hear air
being pulled through the pump during the end of
