Pauses
This
is
normal
At
the
beginning
of
the
Cycle
(with
lid
open
or
closed)
the
smart
drive
system
is
sensing
the
load;
as
a
result,
there
will
not
be
any
noise.
“Swoosh” or “zip” sound
This
is
normal
The
machine
uses
a
(no
gear)
direct
drive
system.
This
is
the
sound
of
the
motor
rotating

to
agitate
your
