It didn't do the recirculation/spray function (which is a pretreatment called Eco Active) because you have it on the Perm Press cycle (programmed on the Favorite button). Eco Active runs on all cycles except Perm Press. The fill flume is designed to spray toward the clothes to saturate them when the water-saving shower rinse runs, which is on the Heavy and Regular cycle unless Softener Rinse option is selected. Did you use the Auto water level selection? The machine runs a sensing function as part of the fill (after Eco Active) to determine the required water level per the load size. The pump cycles on/off during drain to help flush lint away from the impeller. The agitator oscillates a few times at the end of drain to check if the basket has settled down onto the spin drive cog. If you notice, the basket floats upward slightly when the tub fills, which disengages it from the drive so the agitator can oscillate separately. It has to re-engage the cog for spin. Basket floating is also part of the auto water level sensing process. Heavier/larger loads take more water filled in for the basket to float. The "shivers" when you restarted spin is checking again to confirm the basket is engaged to the drive cog. When you paused and restarted the rinse fill, the basket was already floated and disengaged from the drive which is why it started turning slowly from the water swirling. High spin speed is 1,010 RPM. The spin brake is electric via the motor, not mechanical.
I have no idea how I managed to not see this comment for 5 years, but thank you for the information. Lots of little things that this machine did that I didn't get the purpose of, especially the whole basket raising and lowering. I'd always noticed it did that, but couldn't figure out why, I always thought it was to allow that recirculation deal to happen We unfortunately moved not too long after this video was originally shot, and didn't take it with us. I wish we did though, as I never got a full cycle video from it. Maybe one of these years one will pop up on Craigs List, although I don't remember the exact model of this one.
I find it interesting that the USA models of these machines require the lid to be closed to agitate. My New Zealand-bought model allows me to run nearly the entire cycle with the lid up (apart from spins of course).
I bet that smaller pipe goes to a sump pump. Odd how they hooked it to the main sewer... I wish I had a real camera back when I was younger. We had a 1980s Kenmore washing machine in our garage, and it worked fine. I would have totally filmed a video of it, but didn't have a camera... oh well.
my aunt used to have a fisher & paykel washer that only locks the lid during the spin cycle. the only way i can describe it is the control panel has a blue color for the background color
That part were it moves slightly before the wash action is to sense the water level is correct for the clothes and so they will not get teared, recked etc.

This model is a gwl15
That Magic Chef washer is also my grandma's washer to

gotta love American safety regulations
This is the first time seen you talk in your videos keep doing it please and and why did you put the soap cap in their ? It will break it
Recorded on 2012? 😳
Yep it was filmed on the day I was born
It's your water pressure. If you ever spin the machine with the lid open don't put anything in there. You are very lucky.

There was a place to put a sump pump in a closet down in that basement, but we never had one.
There is a clutch in the washer.
Clutch down: Wash
Clutch up: Spin
@@holdenvtseries2274 Oh, it's probably a shifter then.
I don’t like the phase 7 us machines they lock during the entire cycle I prefer the gwl11 iwl15 gwl10 and the iwl12
All machines in modern day all lock but just put a pincle or something skinny in the hole where it locks.

Why does it spray from all the nozzles? Because it fills quicker.

PS1 music, wow.
They have F&P in America?
Not anymore
brakes not breaks
