Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured ifyou don't follow

instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can

happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the washer follow basic precautions,

including the following:

[] Read all instructions before using the washer.

Stack Kit

Are you planning to stack your Kenmore washer and dryer? To do

so, find the stack kit (8541503) in the drum of the matching

Kenmore dryer. Follow instructions included with the kit. See

"Location Requirements."

Selecting the proper location for your washer improves

performance and minimizes noise and possible washer "walk."

Your washer can be installed under a custom counter, or in a

basement, laundry room, closet, or recessed area. See "Drain

System."

Companion appliance location requirements should also be

considered. Proper installation is your responsibility.

You will need

• A water heater set to deliver 120°F (49°C) water to the

washer.

• A grounded electrical outlet located within 6 ft (1.8 m) of

where the power cord is attached to the back of the washer.

See "Electrical Requirements."

• Hot and cold water faucets located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of the

hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of

20-100 psi (137.9-689.6 kPa).

A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (2.5 cm) under

entire washer. Installing the washer on soft floor surfaces,

such as carpets or surfaces with foam backing, is not

recommended.

• A sturdy and solid floor to support the washer with a total

weight (water and load) of 400 Ibs (180 kg).

Do not operate your washer in temperatures below 32°F (0°C).

Some water can remain in the washer and can cause damage in

low temperatures.

Installation clearances

• The location must be large enough to allow the washer door

to be fully opened.

• Additional spacing should be considered for ease of

installation and servicing.

• Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, and

floor moldings.

• Additional spacing of 1" (2.5 cm) on all sides of the washer is

recommended to reduce noise transfer.

• Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failureto follow these instructions can result in death_

fire, or electrical shock.

A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15- or 20-amp, fused electrical

supply is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is

recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit

serving only this appliance be provided.

This washer is equipped with a power supply cord having a

3 prong grounding plug.

To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be

plugged into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type outlet,

grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances. If a

mating outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility

and obligation of the customer to have the properly grounded

outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is

recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the

ground path is adequate.

• Do not ground to a gas pipe.

• Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure the

washer is properly grounded.

• Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For a grounded, cord=connected washer:

This washer must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction

or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electrical

shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric

current. This washer is equipped with a cord having an

equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The

plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is

properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local

codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.

Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in

doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it will

not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified

electrician.

For a permanently connected washer:

This washer must be connected to a grounded metal,

permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding

conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and

connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on

the appliance.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install washer.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

IMPORTANT: Position the washer so that the rear of the unit is

within approximately 3 ft (90 cm) of its final location.

There are 4 bolts in the rear panel of the washer that support the

suspension system during transportation. These bolts also retain

the power cord inside the washer until the bolts are removed,

Using a 13 mm wrench, loosen each of the bolts.

Once the bolt is loose, move it to the center of the hole and

completely pull out the bolt, including the plastic spacer

covering the bolt.

3. Once all 4 bolts are removed, discard the bolts and spacers,

Then pull the power cord through the opening of the rear

panel and close the hole with the attached cap.

4. Close the bolt holes with the 4 transport bolt hole plugs.

NOTE: If the washer is to be transported at a later date, call your

local service center. To avoid suspension and structural damage

to your washer, it must be properly set up for relocation by a

certified technician.

Connect the net ossxs

Make sure the washer drum is empty.

1. Attach the hose with the red color indicator to the Hot (left)

inlet valve. Attaching the red coupling first makes it easier to

tighten connection with pliers. Screw on coupling by hand

until it is seated on the washer.

2. Attach the hose with the blue color indicator to the Cold

(right) water inlet valve. Screw on coupling by hand until it is

seated on the washer.

Using pliers, check the tightness of the hose couplings

already attached to the washer.

NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling can

result.

4. Attach the hose with the red color indicator to the hot water

faucet. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the

washer.

5. Attach the hose with the blue color indicator to the cold water

faucet. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on the

washer.

Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional

two-thirds turn.

NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling can

result.

Turn on the water faucets and check for leaks.

NOTE: Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the

risk of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement

dates on the hoses for future reference.

Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts,

wear, or leaks are found.

Properroutingofthedrainhoseprotectsyourfloorsfrom

damageduetowaterleakage.Readandfollowthese

instructions.

Remove drain hose from washer cabinet

Gently pull the corrugated drain hose from the shipping clips.

Drape the power cord over the washer top.

Secure the drain hose to the laundry tub leg or standpipe with

the beaded strap provided. (See illustrations A and B.)

Laundry tub drain or standpipe drain

A B

A. Snap either end of the drain hose form to the drain hose at

the point where the corrugation begins.

B. Bend drain hose over drain hose form and snap into place.

To keep drain water from going back into the washer:

• Do not straighten the drain hose, and do not force excess

drain hose into standpipe. Hose should be secure, but loose

enough to provide a gap for air.

• Do not lay excess hose on the bottom of the laundry tub.

Floor drain

You may need additional parts. See Floor drain under "Tools and

Parts."

If the washer faucets and the drain standpipe are recessed

(see illustration C), put the hooked end of the drain hose in

the standpipe. Tightly wrap the beaded strap around the

water inlet hoses and the drain hose.

Do not force excess drain hose into the standpipe.

Leve/4i e J}Jsst @ "

ProperJy leveling your washer avoids excessive noise and

vibration.

1. Check the levelness of the washer by placing a level on the

top edge of the washer, first side to side, then front to back.

If the washer is against a wall, move the washer out slightly

before tipping back. If the washer is not level, first prop the

front with a wood block and adjust the feet as necessary;

then prop the back and adjust feet as necessary. Repeat this

step until washer is level.

Make sure that all four feet are stable and resting on the floor.

Then check that the appliance is perfectly level (use a level).

After the washer is level, use a 17 mm open-end wrench to

turn the nuts on the feet tightly against the washer cabinet.

IMPORTANT: All 4 feet must be tightened. If the nuts are not

tight against the washer cabinet, the washer may vibrate.

When you are pushing on the edges of the washing machine

top plate, the machine should not move front to back, side to

side, or diagonally.

Slide the washer to its final location.

Confirm the levelness of the washer.

1. Check the electrical requirements. Be sure that you have the

correct electrical supply and the recommended grounding

method, See "Electrical Requirements."

2. Be sure all parts are now installed, Ifthere is an extra part, go

back through the steps to see which step was skipped.

3. Be sure you have all of your tools.

4. Dispose of or recycle all packaging materials.

5. Be sure the water faucets are on,

6. Check for leaks around faucets and inlet hoses.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Read "Washer Use."

Totest and to clean your washer, measure _/2the

manufacturer's recommended amount of powdered or liquid

High Efficiency (HE) detergent for a medium size load. Pour

the detergent into the detergent dispenser. Select NORMAL/

CASUAL, and then select START.Allow the washer to

complete one whole cycle.

Use only HE High Efficiency detergent.

FEATURESAND BENEFITS

SENSOR SMART TM Electronic Controls

Flexible electronic controls are easy to use whether you are a

beginner or an expert.

Smart Dispensers

The smart dispensers make your washer truly automatic. This

washer provides a three-compartment dispenser which includes

separate compartments for detergent, fabric softener, and

bleach. The dispenser has large pour zones, is self-cleaning, and

can be easily removed. Laundry products are diluted with fresh

water and added to the load at the proper time in the wash cycle.

Auto Water Level

Adjusting to the size of the load, this feature allows the washer to

use the minimal amount of water needed to clean and rinse the

clothes. With a low water level, you can obtain the same results

with smaller amounts of additives. Because only the required

amount of water is used, the washer saves energy, too.

CATALYS'F _Cleaning Action with Direct Injection

A concentrated detergent solution is sprayed onto the clothes at

the beginning of the cycle to ensure that the detergent comes

into contact with the clothes as quickly as possible, removing

stains from your clothes without pretreating.

Larger Load Size

Since there is no agitator, you can wash larger, bulkier items such

as an average size sleeping bag. You are also able to wash more

clothes at one time, which means fewer loads. You can wash a

pillow or a large stuffed teddy bear.

Suspension System

To reduce washer "walk" and "off-balance" conditions, your new

washer combines:

• 2 Springs to isolate vibration

• 4 Shock absorbers at the washer base to minimize movement

Stainless Steel Drum

The stainless steel drum eliminates corrosion and enables higher

spin speeds for more water extraction, reducing drying time.

Adaptive Variable Speed Motor

The motor adapts to the load size and to the cycle selected to

give optimum cleaning, rinsing, and spinning conditions. The

motor can handle slow speeds needed for wool and delicate

items and is powerful enough to drive a large clothes load into a

1,050 rpm spin.

High-Efficiency Wash System

Your new front-loading, high-efficiency washer saves time with

fewer, larger loads, conserves resources and lowers your water

and energy bills too.

Spin Speeds

This washer automatically selects the spin speed based on the

cycle selected. This factory setting can be changed, however.

This washer offers up to five different spin speed choices.

Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)

ATC electronically senses and maintains a uniform water

temperature. ATC regulates incoming hot and cold water. The

ATC is automatically turned On when a cycle is selected.

Fire Hazard

Never place items in the washer that are dampened

with gasoline or other flammabme fluids.

No washer can completely remove oil.

Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on

it (including cooking oils).

Doing so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to

persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before

operating this appliance.

The following is a guide to using your washer. Please refer to

other sections of this manual for more detailed information.

Do not store laundry products on the top surface of this washer.

Vibration is normal during operation.

Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of

detergent will be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." This wash

system, along with less water, will create too much sudsing with a

regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result

in washer errors, longer cycle times and reduced rinsing

performance. It may also result in component failures and

noticeable mold or mildew. HE detergents are made to produce

the right amount of suds for the best performance. Follow the

manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of detergent

to use.

Use only "HE" High Efficiency detergent.

First Wash Cycle Without Laundry

Before washing clothes for the first time, choose the Normal/

Casual cycle and run it without clothes. Use Y2the manufacturer's

recommended amount of powdered or liquid High Efficiency (HE)

detergent for a medium size load. This initial cycle serves to

ensure the interior is clean before washing clothes.

1. To load the washer

Open the washer door by pulling on the handle. Sort laundry

according to color and type of fabric. Place a load of sorted

clothes in the washer. Do not overload washer. Overloading

can cause poor cleaning.

• The washer can be fully loaded, but not tightly packed.

Washer door should close easily.

• Mix large and small items. Avoid washing a single item.

Load evenly.

• Wash small items such as infant socks in mesh garment

bags. It is recommended that more than one garment bag

be used and that each garment bag be filled with equal

amounts of material.

• When unloading garments, occasionally check under the

rubber rim at the front of the tub for small items.

Close the washer door by pushing it firmly until the lock

clicks. The washer door will remain locked during the wash

cycle.

NOTE: After any wash cycle is completed, the door must be

opened and then closed before a new cycle can begin. The

door can be opened only if PAUSE/CANCEL is selected while

the ADD A GARMENT light is glowing or if the cycle has been

canceled. See "To cancel a cycle" in the "Changing Cycles,

Options and Modifiers" section.

3. Open the dispenser drawer and add laundry products to the

detergent, bleach, or fabric softener compartments. Close

drawer slowly to avoid spills. See "Using the Dispenser."

4. Turn on the washer by selecting one of the WASH CYCLES.

The indicator light for the selected cycle will glow. When

selecting a Wash Cycle, the preset options, Water Temp, Spin

Speed, and Soil Level for the selected cycle will glow. The

display shows the estimated time remaining. The preset

settings provide the recommended fabric care for the

selected cycle. See "Cycles."

5. Select the desired OPTIONS. Not all Options are available

with all cycles. See "Options."

6. Select the desired MODIFIERS. Not all Modifiers are available

with all Cycles and Options. See "Modifiers."

If desired, select the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL. The signal is

helpful when you are washing items that should be removed

from the washer as soon as it stops. Select ON or OFR

To begin the wash cycle immediately

Select and hold START (for approximately 1 second).

• If you do not select START within 5 minutes of choosing a

cycle, the washer automatically shuts off.

• When the wash cycle is complete, the CLOTHES CLEAN

status light glows, the door unlocks, and the wash load

can be removed from the washer. The washer powers

down automatically 5 minutes after the cycle is complete

and the CLOTHES CLEAN light goes off. To power down

the washer manually after the wash cycle is complete,

select PAUSE/CANCEL once.

To begin the wash cycle later

Select DELAY until the desired delay time (in hours) shows in

the Estimated Time Remaining display. Select START.The

countdown to the wash cycle will show in the display window.

• When delaying a cycle, use only powdered detergents in

the main wash compartment since liquid detergents may

seep out of the compartment during Delay, before the

wash cycle begins.

Your new washer has a dispenser drawer with three separate

compartments for your laundry products--one is for detergent,

one is for liquid chlorine bleach, and one is for liquid fabric

softener. Laundry products are diluted and dispensed

automatically at the proper time during the wash cycle, making it

unnecessary for you to return to the washer during the cycle to

add them.

It is normal for small amounts of water to remain in the

dispensers when the wash cycle is complete.

Do not put laundry additives directly into the wash tub. Always

use the proper dispensers when adding laundry products.

Choosing the Right Detergent

Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type of •

detergent will be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." This wash

system, along with less water, will create too much sudsing with a

regular non-HE detergent. Using regular detergent will likely result •

in washer errors, longer cycle times and reduced rinsing

performance. It may also result in component failures and

noticeable mold or mildew. HE detergents are made to produce

the right amount of suds for the best performance. Follow the •

manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of detergent

to use.

Use only "HE" High Efficiency detergenL

To fill dispenser compartments

1. Pull out the dispenser drawer.

Whitest Whites

This cycle is especially designed for cleaning loads of soiled

white fabrics with the addition of bleach. Hot washing

temperatures assure optimal bleach activity. An additional rinse

provides optimal rinse performance to avoid chlorine residues on

your laundry. This cycle combines fast-speed tumbling, longer

wash time, and high-speed spin to shorten drying time.

Heavy Duty

Use this cycle to wash loads of sturdy, colorfast fabrics and

heavily soiled garments. This cycle combines

fast-speed tumbling, longer wash time, and high-speed spin to

shorten drying times.

Normal/Casual

Use this cycle to wash loads of no-iron fabrics such as sport

shirts, blouses, casual business clothes, permanent press

blends, cottons and linens, and synthetic fabrics. This cycle

combines medium-speed tumbling, high-speed spin, and a load

cooling process to reduce wrinkling.

Delicate/Handwash

Use this cycle to clean delicate and special care garments.

(Check label instructions to make sure that the garment is

LAUNDRY TIPS

Preparing clothes for washing

Follow these recommendations to help you prolong the life of

your garments.

• Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package for this type

of detergent will be marked "HE" or "High Efficiency." This

wash system, along with less water, will create too much

sudsing with a regular non-HE detergent, Using regular

detergent will likely result in washer errors, longer cycle times

and reduced rinsing performance, It may also result in

component failures and noticeable mold or mildew. HE

detergents are made to produce the right amount of suds for

the best performance, Follow the manufacturer's instructions

to determine the amount of detergent to use.

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

noncolorfast items.

• Sort by fabric and construction (sturdy cottons, knits, delicate

items).

Unloading

• Remove clothes from washer after the cycle is completed.

Metal objects such as zippers, snaps, and buckles may rust if

left in the washer basket for a long time.

• When unloading garments, occasionally check under the

rubber rim at the front of the tub for small items.

Useonly HE High Efficiency detergent.

• 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.

• Empty pockets and turn them inside-out.

• Turn down cuffs; brush away lint and dirt.

• Turn synthetic knits inside-out to avoid pilling.

• 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.

• Mix large and small items, avoid washing single items, and

load evenly.

• Wash small items, such as infant socks, in a mesh garment

bags. To create a balanced load it is recommend that more

than one garment bag be used, and that each garment bag

be filled with equal amounts of material.

NOTE: If washing only small items, it is recommend that more

than one mesh garment bag be used, and that each garment

bag be filled with equal amounts of material.

Washer Monthly Maintenance Procedure

Your washer has a special cycle stored within the machine's

programming. Pressing a specific combination of buttons will

access this cleaning cycle. This cycle uses higher water volumes

in combination with liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the

inside of your washing machine.

NOTES:

• Read these instructions completely before beginning the

cleaning process.

If necessary, the cleaning cycle may be interrupted by

pressing the PAUSE/CANCEL button. However, this will not

immediately stop the cycle. The machine will display "int"

(interrupt) and continue with several rinse and drain steps to

ensure that all remaining bleach is rinsed from the unit.

Begin procedure

1. Open the washer door and remove any clothing or items from

the washer.

2. Be sure the door is closed.

3. Open the dispenser drawer and remove the detergent divider

from the Main Wash detergent compartment and set aside.

See "Using the Dispenser" for instructions. No laundry

products will be added at this time; you will be required to

add only liquid chlorine bleach, at a later step.

4. To enter the cycle, a specific combination of buttons must be

pressed.

• Select the RINSE & SPIN button.

• Select Low SPIN SPEED.

• Select Warm/Cold WATER TEMPERATURE.

• Select the 2ND RINSE Option.

• Push END of CYCLE SIGNAL button 4 times within

5 seconds to start the cycle. The door will lock, and filling

will begin.

NOTE: The water in the unit will dispense for a moment,

then the door will unlock, lock again, and then the cycle

will continue.

• The machine will fill and run a short sensing cycle. This

will take approximately 3 minutes.

The washer will provide 4 short tones. Check the Estimated

Time Remaining display for the codes indicated below.

a} If the washer displays the letters "Ab" (Add Bleach) inthe

Estimated Time Remaining display, you will hear 4 short

tones. Proceed to Step 6.

b} If the washer displays the letters "rL" (Remove Load) in

the Estimated Time Remaining display, an error tone will

sound. The door will unlock.

• Open the door and remove the items from the washer.

• Continue the cycle by pressing the START button.

NOTE: The water in the unit will dispense for a

moment, then the door will unlock, lock again, and

then the cycle will continue with another check for

items in the washer.

• The machine will fill and run a short cycle to

determine whether any items have been left in the

washer. This will take approximately 3 minutes.

• The washer will repeat Step 5 until it can determine

that there are no items in the washer and will display

"Ab" (Add Bleach).

Add liquid chlorine bleach.

a} If using the maintenance procedure for the first time, open

the dispenser drawer and immediately add 1 cup

(236.6 mL) liquid chlorine bleach to the Main Wash

detergent compartment. The liquid chlorine bleach should

immediately flow out of the dispenser.

b} If doing a monthly maintenance procedure, open the

dispenser drawer and immediately add 1/3cup (78.8 mL)

liquid chlorine bleach to the Main Wash detergent

compartment. The liquid chlorine bleach should

immediately flow out of the dispenser.

NOTES:

• Water will be flowing into the dispenser drawer when

the bleach is added. This is normal.

• Do not add any detergent to this cleaning cycle. Use

of more than 1 cup (236.6 mL) of bleach will cause

product damage over time.

7. Once the cleaning cycle has begun, allow the cycle to

complete. An estimated cycle time will appear on the display.

8. After the cleaning cycle is complete, leave the door open,

slightly, to allow for better ventilation and drying of washer

interior.

9. Replace the detergent compartment divider.

Always do the following to maintain washer freshness

• Use only HEHigh Efficiency detergent.

• Leave the door slightly open after each cycle to allow for

better ventilation and drying of washer interior.

• Run this procedure on a monthly basis using 1/3cup (78.8 mL)

of liquid chlorine bleach.

• If the procedure does not sufficiently improve the machine

freshness, evaluate your installation and usage conditions for

other causes.

Cleaning the exterior

Use a soft damp cloth or sponge to wipe up any spills.

Occasionally wipe the outside of your washer to keep it looking

new. Use mild soap and water. Do not use abrasive products.

Cleaning the dispenser drawer

The dispenser drawer is removable for easy cleaning.

1. Unlock the dispenser drawer by pressing the Release Lever in

the Prewash compartment. See "Using the Dispenser."

Remove the drawer.

2. Remove the inserts (the siphon from the softener and bleach

compartments and the separator).

3. Wash the parts under running water.

4. Replace the inserts and return the dispenser to the drawer.

Replace inlet hoses after five years of use to reduce the risk of

hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace inlet hoses if

bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks are found.

When replacing your inlet hoses, record the date of replacement.

Install and store your washer where it will not freeze. Because

some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your

washer. If storing or moving your washer during freezing weather,

winterize it.

Non-use or vacation care:

Operate your washer only when you are at home. If you will be on

vacation or not using your washer for an extended period of time,

you should:

• Unplug washer or disconnect power.

• Turn off the water supply to the washer. This helps avoid

unintended flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you

are away.

• Slightly open door to provide ventilation.

To winterize washer:

1. Put I qt (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the drum.

2. Run washer on a Drain & Spin cycle.
