POSSIBLE CAUSE
Make sure hose connections are tight at faucets.
Make sure end of drain hose is correctly inserted in and secured to drain facility.
Make sure washer is level and firm to the floor with rubber footpads in place
and front jam nuts tight. See your kstalIation Instructions.
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.
Heavily unbalanced loads can cause the washer to vibrate excessively during
spin, and may cause it to move from its original position. In extreme 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 harmless noise. To correct, open the lid and redistribute the
load evenly about the wash basket. Close the lid and restart.
Washer normally pauses between washing steps... such as between wash and
spin or between spin and rinse.
