A:Answer Hello, thanks for your interest in this washer model. This model was designed to provide a great wash on all cycles and provide options that help make the chore of laundry more enjoyable. Some sounds heard are normal. Washer sounds might even be different from your prior washers: Clicks, water flowing, gear sounds followed by pauses, and electric hum sounds are all part of the normal wash cycle. You can find more information on the sounds this model may make and why here: https://files.bbystatic.com/CPyEVasqZ%2BZzAzKphDnN5g%3D%3D/F286593F-2DB5-4DBA-A0F1-4D5BFEFA5780.pdf on page 26. We hope this helps!- Kianna@GEA
