High-pitched sound during a spin cycle.
The motor increases speed to spin the tub to remove moisture from the
load.
Detergent is dispensed at the start of the cycle. Bleach is dispensed at the
appropriate time in the wash cycle. Fabric softener is dispensed during the
third rinse while the washer is filling.
The sealed balance ring around the tub contains a liquid and is designed to
make the washer spin smoothly.
The tub rotates one direction followed by a pause.The tub reverses
direction and pauses.This action continues throughout the cycle.
After reaching the maximum spin speed, the machine may reduce spin
speed slightly for maximum performance.
The tumbler will begin to accelerate to speed, then slows back down to
redistribute the load more evenly when an unbalanced load occurs.
The washer uses a true adaptive fill and adds more water during the wash
cycle as it is needed.
Water flows through the dispenser to dilute and add bleach or fabric
softener at the appropriate time.This will occur even if bleach and fabric
softener are not used.
Before the washer starts to fill, it will make a series of clicking noises to
check the door lock and do a quick drain.
