There are 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 result in property
damage and/or serious bodily harm or death.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word DANGER, WARNING or
CAUTION. These words mean:
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate
injury.
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.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons when using this appliance, follow basic pre-
cautions, including the following.
• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as
described in this Use & Care Guide.
• Before use, the washer must be properly installed as
described in this manual.
• Do not wash articles that have been previously
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with
gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable
or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that
could ignite or explode.
• Do not add gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other
flammable or explosive substances 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 that has not been
used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used
for such a period, before using the washer, turn ON
all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each
for several minutes. This will release any 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 your washer is removed from service or
discarded, remove the lid to the washing compartment
to avoid the danger of children or small animals
getting trapped inside. Failure to do so can result in
serious personal injury or death.

NOTE: To prevent damage, do not remove the foam
block until the washer is at the final location.
8
CONNECTING THE WATER LINES
• IMPORTANT: Use new hoses when installing the
washer. Do NOT reuse old hoses.
• IMPORTANT: Use ONLY the inlet hoses provided by
Kenmore. Aftermarket hosesare not guaranteed to fit or
function correctly. Other hosesmay not tighten correctly
and could cause leaks. Subsequent damage to product
or property will not be covered underthe terms of the
product warranty.
• Water supply pressure must be between 14.5 psi and
116 psi (100-800 kPa). If the water supply pressure is
more than 116psi, a pressure reducing valve must be
installed.
• Periodically check the hose for cracks, leaks, and
wear, and replace the hose if necessary.
• Make sure that the water lines are not stretched,
pinched, crushed, or kinked.
• The washer should never be installed or stored in a
location subject to freezing temperatures. Damage to the
water lines and internal mechanisms of the washer can
result. If the washer was exposed to freezing temperatures
prior to installation, allow it to stand at room temperature
for several hours before use and check for leaks prior to
operation.
3. Always run a gallon or two of water through each inlet
hose to flush dirt, scale and other debris out of the
water lines. Doing so will help prevent future problems
with clogged filter screens, and will also allow you to
verify which hose is hot and which is cold.

Tighten the fittings securely. Turn ON both faucets
all the way and check for leaks at both ends of the
hoses.
NOTE: Be careful not to cross-thread the hose
fittings. This will damage the valve and could result in
property damage from leaks.
2. Connect the water supply hoses to the HOT and
COLD water faucets tightly by hand and then tighten
another 2/3turn with pliers.
CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE
• The drain hose should always be properly secured.
Failure to properly secure the drain hose can result in
flooding and property damage.
• The drain must be installed in accordance with any
applicable local codes and regulations.
• Make sure that the drain hose is not stretched,
pinched, crushed, or kinked.

CONNECT TO THE POWER SUPPLY
Washer should be plugged into a 120-VAC, 60-Hz
grounded 3-prong outlet. Plug in the washer.
f
If the water valves and drain are built into the wall,
fasten the drain hose to one of the water hoses with the
cable tie (ribbed side on inside).
35"~47"
Cable Tie
If your drain is a standpipe, fasten the drain hose to the
standpipe with the cable tie provided.
NOTE:
• Normal height of the end of the hose should be
approximately 35"_47" (0.9_1.2 m) from the floor.
• Do not install the end of the drain hose higher than 96 in.
(243.8 cm) above the bottom of the washer or more than
60 in. (152.4 cm) away from the washer.
• Never seal the drain hose to the drain. If no air gap is
present, water can be siphoned out of the tub resulting in
poor wash/rinse performance or clothing damage.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or service technician
if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance
is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the appliance. If it does not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician. Failure to follow these warnings can
cause serious injury, fire, electrical shock, or death.
10
LEVELING THE WASHER
The tub of your new washer spins at very high speeds.
To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement,
the floor must be a level, solid surface.
NOTE: Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary
to level the washer. Extending the
leveling feet more than necessary
can cause the washer to vibrate.
NOTE: Before installing the washer,
make sure that the floor is clean,
dry and free of dust, dirt, water and
oils so the washer feet cannot slide
easily. Leveling feet that move or
slide on the floor can contribute to
excess vibration and noise due to poor contact with the
floor.
All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the floor.
Attempt to rock the washer from corner to corner to
make sure that all four leveling feet are in firm contact
with the floor.
1. Position the washer in its final location, taking
special care not to pinch, strain, or crush the water
and drain lines. Place a level across the top of the
washer.
• To check if the washer is level from side to side, place
a level on the back edge of the lid.
• To check if the washer is level front to back, place a
level at the side of the washer on the edge where the
cabinet side meets the top cover. Do not place the
level on the top or the lid. Using these surfaces will
result in the washer being unlevel.

2. Adjust the leveling feet. Turn clockwise to raise the
washer or counterclockwise to lower it.

3. To make sure that the washer is properly level,
open the lid and look from above to see if the tub
is centered. If the tub is NOT centered (as shown
in the drawing, on the left), readjust the feet. If you
have a level, check your washer with the level.

I SORTING WASH LOADS
_, CAUTION
• Do not load items higher than the top edge of the
tub. Failure to follow this caution can result in leakage
or damage to fabrics.
• Use the BULl<Y/BEDDING cycle for buoyant or
nonabsorbent items such as pillows or comforters.
Failure to follow this caution can result in leakage.
• If possible, do not wash any water-resistant items.
If you must, please select the Bulky/Bedding cycle.
- Examples of water-proof or water-resistant items
include certain mattress pads, mattress covers, rain
gear, camping gear, skiing apparel, outdoor gear and
similar items.
Grouping Similar Items
For the best washing results, and to reduce the possibility
of damage to clothing, care should be taken to sort the
clothing into loads that are made up of similar items.
Mixing different fabric types and/or soil levels can result
in poor wash performance, color transfer or discoloration,
fabric damage or linting. Fabrics should be sorted into
groups as described below.
Colors
Sort articles by color. Wash dark clothes together in
aseparate load from light colors or whites. Mixing dark
clothes with light clothes can result in dye transfer or
discoloration of the lighter clothes.
Soil Level
Wash heavily soiled clothing together. Washing lightly
soiled clothing in the same load with heavily soiled
clothing could result in poor wash performance for the
lightly soiled clothing.
Fabric Type
Delicate articles should not be mixed with heavier or
sturdier fabric types. Washing delicates in a load
with heavy fabrics can result in damage to the more
delicate fabrics. Washing heavier fabrics in a delicate
load can result in poor wash performance for the
heavier fabrics and possible damage to the delicates.
Lint Type
Some fabrics attract and bind lint to them while others
give off lint in the laundry process. Avoid mixing these
lint collectors and lint producers in the same load. Mixing
these fabrics will result in pilling and linting on the lint
collectors. (For example, lint collector - knit sweater; lint
producer - terrycloth towels.)
Fabric Care Labels
Many articles of clothing include a fabric care label.
Using the chart below, adjust the cycle and option
selections to care for your clothing according to the
manufacturer's recommendations.

Loading the Washer
• Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty.
Items such as clips, matches, pens, coins, and keys can
damage both your washer and your clothes.
• Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent these
items from snagging or tangling on other clothes.
• Pretreat heavily stained areas for best results.
• Combine large and small items in a load. Load large
items first.
• Large items should not be more than half of the total
wash load.
• The washer can be fully loaded, but the tub should
not be tightly packed with items. The lid of the washer
should close easily.
• To prevent an out-of-balance load, do not wash
single items. Add one or two similar items to the load.
Large, bulky items, such as a blanket, comforter, or
bedspread, should be washed individually.
• The washer will not fill or operate with the lid open.
NOTE: Use the BULl<Y/BEDDING cycle for large or
bulky items such as poly-filled jackets, comforters,
pillows, etc. These items may not be as absorbent
as other laundry items and should be sorted into a
separate wash load for optimal results.
Bulky items should be placed as far down in the tub as
possible for optimal results. Always place buoyant items
at the bottom of the tub.

ABOUT THE DISPENSERS
The automatic dispenser consists of two compartments
which hold:
• Liquid fabric softener.
• Liquid or powdered detergent for main wash.

\,,_. Dispenser Drawer o.../
Main Wash
Insert
Main Wash Detergent Compartment
This compartment holds laundry detergent for the main
wash cycle. The detergent is added to the load at the
beginning of the cycle. Always use High-Efficiency (HE)
detergent with your washing machine. Either powdered
or liquid detergent may be used.
Never exceed the manufacturer's recommendations
when adding detergent. Using too much detergent can
result in detergent buildup in clothing and the washer.
When using liquid detergent, make sure the liquid
detergent cup and insert are in place. Do not exceed
the maximum fill line.
When using powdered detergent, remove the liquid
detergent cup from the compartment. Powdered
detergent will not dispense with the liquid detergent
cup in place.
Fabric Softener Compartment
This compartment holds liquid fabric softener, which is
automatically dispensed during the final rinse cycle.
Never exceed the manufacturer's recommendations
whenadding softener. Using too much fabric softener can
result in buildup in clothing and the washer.
•Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations
when adding fabric softener. Do not exceed the
maximum fill line. Using too much fabric softener may
stain clothes.
• Dilute concentrated fabric softeners with warm water.
Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
• Never pour fabric softener directly onto the load or
into the tub.
Compartment
_ Liquid Bleach
Liquid Bleach Compartment
The bleach dispenser is a separate compartment at
the left front of the tub opening. This compartment
holds liquid bleach, which is dispensed automatically
at the proper time during the wash cycle. Any liquid
remaining in the dispenser at the end of the cycle is
water, not bleach.
• Do not add powdered bleach or Oxi products to this
compartment. The bleach compartment is designed to
dispense liquid bleach only. Powdered or liquid color-
safe bleach will not dispense properly.
•Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations
when adding bleach. Never add more than one cup
and do not exceed the maximum fill line since this can
cause the bleach to be dispensed immediately, resulting in
damage to fabrics. Using too much bleach can damage
fabrics.
• Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly
onto the load or into the tub. Fabric damage can occur.
• Do not use color-safe bleach or Oxi products in the
same cycle with liquid chlorine bleach.
Do NOT mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or
acids, such as vinegar or rust/scale remover.
Mixing chemicals like these can produce a lethal
gas, resulting in severe injury or death.

DETERGENT AND DISPENSER USE
A Word About Detergents
High-Efficiency (HE) detergents produce fewer suds,
dissolve more efficiently to improve washing and
rinsing performance, and help to keep the interior of
your washer clean. Using detergent that is not HE may
cause oversudsing and unsatisfactory performance
which could result in error codes, cycle failure, and
machine damage.
'_ Maximum __[__s
ormal Load Amount
Liquid Powdered
Detergent Detergent
For proper wash performance, always measure the
detergent using the measurements provided by the
detergent manufacturer.
The normal amount of HE detergent needed, for aver-
age loads, is less than 1/2of the recommended maxi-
mum. Use less detergent for soft water, light soil or
smaller loads. Never use more than the maximum
amount recommended by the detergent
manufacturer.
Using the Softener and Detergent Dispenser
To add detergent, bleach, and fabric softener to the
automatic dispenser:
Open the dispenser drawer.
Load the laundry products into the
appropriate compartments.
Close the drawer before starting the cycle.
NOTE: It is normal for a small amount of water to
remain in the bleach and softener compartments at the
end of the cycle.
IMPORTANT: Do not place or store laundry products,
such as detergent, bleach, or liquid fabric softener, on
top of your washer or dryer. Wipe up any spills immedi-
ately. These products can damage the finish and controls.
Using the Liquid Bleach Dispenser
The bleach dispenser automatically dilutes and
dispenses liquid bleach at the proper time in the
wash cycle.
Designed to use only
High-Efficiency (HE) detergent
IMPORTANT: Your washing machine is designed for use
with only High-Efficiency (HE)detergents. HE detergents
are formulated specifically for High-Efficiency washers
and contain suds-reducing agents. Always look for the
HE symbol when purchasing detergent.
IMPORTANT: Not all detergents are the same. Pay
careful attention to the amount of detergent used to avoid
overusing, poor rinsing and detergent buildup in clothing,
and residue buildup that can contribute to odors in the
machine. NEVER use a cup or scoop other than the one
supplied by the manufacturer of the detergent you
are using. Never use more than the maximum amount of
detergent recommended by the manufacturer.
Always measure the detergent amount. While HE
detergents are designed for this type of washing
machine, be careful when measuring the detergent. For
most normal loads, no more than 1/4to 1/2 of cap or
scoop of HE detergent should be used.
NOTE: Extra care must be exercised when using 2X and
3X concentrated detergents because even a little bit extra
can contribute to the problems mentioned above.
NOTE: Detergents designated as HE compatible may not
provide optimal results.
18
Check clothing care special
instructions.
Measure liquid bleach carefully, following
instructions on the bottle. High-efficiency washers
use less water, so less bleach is needed. One half
cup is enough for most loads.
Carefully pour the pre-measured amount of
0
bleach directly into the bleach dispenser. If you
are using powdered bleach of any kind, pour it
directly into the tub before adding the laundry.
Never add powdered bleach to the liquid bleach
dispenser.
• Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly
onto clothes or into the tub.
• Do not pour powdered bleach into bleach dispenser.
• Do not place laundry items on top of the bleach
dispenser when loading and unloading the washer.
•Always measure and pour bleach carefully. Avoid
overfilling or splashing when adding bleach to the
dispenser. The maximum capacity of the bleach
dispenser is one cup of bleach per wash cycle.
Overfilling could result in bleach being dispensed
immediately.
