A. WATER VALVE (Steam models only.) The flow of
water is controlled by electric solenoids. During
operation there may be a clicking sound as the
valve opens and closes to control the water flow.
B. SUSPENSION ROLLERS The dryer drum is
supported by a set of suspension rollers. At times
there may be a thumping or rolling sound when
the dryer starts. This may happen if the dryer has
not been in use for a period of time, or after a
heavy load has remained in the dryer drum for an
extended period, creating a temporary flat spot on
the edge of the roller. The noise should dissipate as
the dryer operates and the flat spots smooth out.
C. AIR FLOW SYSTEM Your dryer is equipped
with a high volume air handling system. In some
installations there may be some sounds associated
with air movement throughout the dryer, including
the air duct, blower, and exhaust system. This is
normal and can vary with load size and type.
D. GAS VALVE (Gas models only.) The flow of gas is controlled by electric solenoids.
During operation there may be a clicking sound as the valve opens and closes to
control the gas flow.
E. GAS BURNER (Gas models only.) When the burner is operating, there may be sounds
generated as the air flow mixes with the gas flame. This noise is normal and will only
occur when the gas is ignited in the combustion tube.
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
F. DRAIN HOSE The washer has a flexible drain hose
to carry water from the washer to the stand pipe
of your home. You will hear water flowing into your
stand pipe. This is a normal part of the operation of
the washer.
G. WATER VALVES/DISPENSER As water enters the
dispenser system, it is common to hear a water
flowing sound. This normal sound will vary slightly
based on the water pressure in your home.
H. DOOR LOCK Your washer is equipped with a
door lock with an electric solenoid. There will be
a clicking sound as the washer door is locked or
unlocked.
I. DRAIN/RECIRCULATION PUMPS Your washer is
equipped with multiple high velocity system pumps.
It is normal to hear humming and gurgling sounds
as water is either pumped from the washer during
the drain phase or recirculated during the prewash
and wash phases. Both of these sounds are normal and indicate that your pump is
functioning correctly.
J. HIGH SPEED MOTOR A powerful motor is used to drive the drum to high spin speeds
to extract water from your load. You will hear a sound associated with these higher spin
speeds. This sound is normal and will vary slightly as the spin speed varies with load
size and cycle selected.
