DRIVE MOTOR NOTES

Spin is defined as a clockwise (CW ) Motor and Basket rotation when looking down from the top of the machine. Nutate is a counter-clockwise (CCW ) rotation of the motor.

16.Step Spin. Drive motor ramps up to speed following specific motor profiles.

17.Suds Lock Detection and cleanup. Suds detection is done based on motor current ramp-up. This requires a 90-sec duration for this step. If suds are detected, the suds cleanup algorithm runs, then the detection algorithm runs again. This is repeated up to 3 times. If the suds are not cleared by the end of the iterations, the unit remains in pause mode with an "SL" (Suds Locked) error code on the display.

18.DN = Defaults to selected cycle's nutate speed.

19.Optional Spin-to-Spin protection nutate. May be turned off if there was already a nutate before this step in the cycle. The cycle may begin with this nutate if the last cycle ended in a spin.
