precautions, including the following:
• Read all instructions
the washer.

before using

• Do not wash articles that have been
previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked
in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents, other flammable or explosive
substances as they give off vapors that
co_JIdignite or explode.
• Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents, or other flammable or explosive
su_)stances to the wash water. These
substances give off vapors that could
ignite or explode.
• Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas
may be produced in a hot water system

more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
If the hot water system has not been
used for such a period, before using a

SAVE THESE

washing machine, turn on all hot water
faucets and let the water flow from each

accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is
flammable, do not smoke or use an open
flame during this time.
• Do not allow children to play on or in
the washer. Close supervision of children
is necessary when the washer is used
near children.
• Before the washer is removed from
service or discarded, remove the lid.
° Do not reach into the washer if the tub
or agitator is moving.
• Do not install or store this washer where
it will be exposed to the weather.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the

SE'LF-CLEANING

LINT FILTER

TRIPLE ACTION"

Lint is filtered from the load
automatically - there's no
messy cleanup.

Kenmore's exclusive TRIPLE ACTION"
Agitator gives you the most flexible
fabric care for even your largest loads.

Your washer features a self-cleaning
filter that traps lint from the water while
the washer is washing and deep rinsing
the laundry. The trapped lint is flushed
down the drain automatically. You don't
have to clean the filter.

The TRIPLE ACTION'" Agitator moves
in three directions, depending on
load size, to ensure
proper cleaning. The
best cleaning action in
your washer takes place
at the bottom where the
agitator vanes move
back and forth to flex
the fabric, loosening
the soil.

QUIET

The upper portion
of the agitator
features special
vanes that push
the clothes down in

a spiraling pattern to where the cleaning
action is, displacing the clothes that
are there with a "roll-over" motion.

PAK'" PLUS

The QUIET PAK'" System is designed to
reduce water sounds and ringing noises.
The cabinet is insulated with sounddampening materials for superior vibration and sound-damping
characteristics.
A sound-absorbing
blanket under the
motor and gearcase also helps to insulate
the washer to reduce vibration noise.

AGITATOR

For your largest loads, the
TRIPLE ACTION'" Agitator offers a
load-sensing feature that actually
senses when you are washing a
really large load and responds by
telling the top part of the agitator to
move in an additional up and down
motion. This ensures that all clothes
get moved down to the lower vanes.

UNDERSTANDING
WASHER
SOUNDS

NORMAL

USING YOUR
TRIPLE DISPENSER

Your new washer may make sounds
that your old one didn't. Because the
sounds are unfamiliar, you may be
concerned about them.
The following describes some of the
normal sounds you may hear and what
causes them.
During Washing
When you select a small load size setting for a small wash load, your washer
has a lower water level. With this lower
water level, you may hear a clicking sound
from the upper portion of the agitator.
During Drain
The rate that water is drained from your
washer depends on your installation. If
water is drained quickly from the washer,
you may hear air being pulled through
the pump. This happens during the end
of draining.
After Drain and Before Spin
When the cycle changes from draining
to spinning, you may hear a noise as the
gearcase shifts.

The triple dispenser makes your
washer truly automatic by making
it unnecessary for you to return to
the washer during the cycle to put in
detergent, bleach, or fabric softener.
By using the triple dispenser, you are
assured of proper fabric care by ensuring
that detergent, bleach, and fabric softener
are introduced into the washer at the
proper time and properly diluted.
How It Works
The triple dispenser directs fresh
water from the washer inlet valve to
the dispensers.
The water directed to the dispenser
will be warm if both faucets are turned
on fully, regardless of wash or rinse
temperature selections. This is to ensure
proper dilution of laundry products. The
amount of warm water is not enough to
harm delicate or non-colorfast fabrics.

USING THE
DISPENSER

DETERGENT

This dispenser will automatically dispense
either liquid or dry detergents.
It holds
and automatically dispenses the detergent
at the beginning of the main wash cycle.
W_Lrm water is used for dispensing regardless of water temperature selected. The
amount of warm water is not enough to
harm delicate or non-colorfast fabrics.

If using Powdered Detergent:
• Remove the Liquid Detergent Cup or
the Flow Diverter. Powdered detergent
can clog these parts. Add detergent
directly to dispenser.
If using Liquid Detergent:
• Use the Liquid Detergent Cup and
Flow Diverter only for liquid detergents..
• Do not overfill or dispenser will empty
too soon. Dispenser holds 1/2cup.

• Add detergent or presoak product to

not dispense in these cycles.
• I1:you are tollowing SOAK or PREWASH
with a regular wash cycle, add detergent
for the main wash into the dispenser.
Then add detergent or presoak product
for the SOAK or PREWASH Cycles into
the washer basket. This will permit you
to use the SOAK and PREWASH Cycles
without returning to the washer.
• Follow package recommendations
for the amount to use. Add clothes to

PREPARING
CLOTHES
FOR WASHING

Follow these recommendations
to help you proRong the life of
your garments.
• Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to
avoid snagging other items. Remove
pins, buckles, and other hard objects
to avoid scratching the washer interior.
Remove non-washable trim and
ornaments.

SORTING
• Separate heavily soiled items from
lightly soiled ones, even if they
would normally be washed together.
Separate lint givers (towels, chenille)
from lint takers (corduroy, synthetics,
permanent press). When possible,
turn lint givers inside out.
• Separate dark colors from light colors,
colorfast items from non-colorfast items.
• Sort by fabric and construction
(sturdy cottons, knits, delicate items).

• Empty pockets and turn them
inside out.
• Turn down cuff.';, brush away lint
and dirt.
• Turn synthetic
avoid pilling.

knits inside out to

• Tie strings and sashes so they will
not tangle.
• Mend tears, loose hems, and seams.
• Treat spots and stains.
• Stained or wet garments should be
washed promptly for best results.

Proper loading of your washer contributes to proper cleaning and fabric
care and reduces machine noise.
• Drop items iinto washer loosely. Fill
to the top of the basket (top row of
holes). Do not wrap items around the
agitator. Items should move easily
through wash water for best cleaning
and wrinkte-.free results. Items should
sink and reappear later.
• Load washer properly and select correct
water level setting. Overloading or
packing the machine, and selecting a
setting to() small for the wash load can:
• cause poor cleaning
• increase wrinkling
• create excessive lint
• wear out items faster
(because of pilling)
• Load by the amount of space items
take up, not by their weight.
• Mix large and small items in each load.
Load evenly to maintain washer balance.
An off-balance load can make the
washer vibrate during spin.
• Use a higher water level setting to reduce
wrinkling with permanent press clothes
and some synthetic knits. These items
should have more room to move in the
water than heavy items (towels, jeans).
• Reduce wash time by using a lower
water level setting. Loads with only a
few small items need less wash time.

SUGGESTIONS

For these suggested full-sized loads,
set the WATER LEVEL Selector to the
highest water level setting.
