buckles, or zippers touch against the stainless steel basket.
It is normal to hear the pump making a continuous humming sound
with periodic gurgling or surging as final amounts of water are
removed during the Spin cycle.
You may hear the hum of the sensing spins after you have started
the washer. This is normal.

Make sure all four fill hose flat washers are properly seated.
Pull drain hose from washer cabinet and properly secure it to
drainpipe or laundry tub.

all household plumbing for leaks (laundry tubs, drain pipe, water
pipes, and faucets.)

and cause water to splash off tub. See "Using Your Washer"
for loading instructions.
