Using drain and spin

A drain and spin may help shorten drying times for some heavy fabrics or special-care items by removing excess water.

1.Push in the Cycle Control Knob and turn clockwise to SPIN, as illustrated.

2.Pull out the Cycle Control Knob. The washer drains, then spins.

Understanding normal

Your new washer may make sounds that your old one didn’t. Because the sounds are 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 for a small wash load, your washer has a lower water level. With this lower water level, you may hear a clicking sound from the upper portion of the agitator.

During drain

The rate that water is drained from your washer depends on your installation. If water is drained quickly from the washer, you may hear air being pulled through the pump. This happens during the end of draining.

After drain and before spin

When the cycle changes from draining to spinning, you may hear gears engaging.
