Kenmore 110.4646 - Manual (Page 12)

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Your new front-loading high efficiency washer, was designed to
conserve resources and lower your water and energy bills. The
washer is designed to determine and then provide the amount of
water needed for the best performance. The time of operation
may be greater for this new system than for a conventional
washer.
Electronic Controls
Flexible electronic controls are easy to use whether you are a
beginner or an expert.
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. You can
obtain the same washing results for small and large loads size.
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
■ 3 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 the 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
1,100 rpm spin.
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 three different spin speed choices.
Add A Garment
This option Is available in all wash cycles except RInse/SpIn and
Draln/Spin. When this option is available at the beginning of the
cycle the Add A Garment status light will illuminate for the first
7 minutes. This washer allows a 7-minute period in which
forgotten garments may be added to a load.
Dynamic Balance
A precision balancing system that allows the washer to reach
spin speeds of up to 1,100 rpm. The washer spins faster so that
clothes coming out of the washer will dry faster. In addition, if the
Dynamic Balance system detects off-balance loads during
spinning, it redistributes the clothes so that they are evenly
balanced.
Detergent Advantage System Dispenser
The three compartments in the dispenser allow loading of all
laundry additives before the washer is started. The additives will
be dispensed into the wash at the optimal time for high­
performance cleaning. The bleach release system Is included in
the detergent advantage system. The detergent Is added at the
beginning of the cycle, and the bleach is added after the
enzymes have had a chance to do their cleaning. The fabric
softener is dispensed in the rinse cycle or In the 2ND RINSE, if
selected. The Detergent Advantage System Dispenser tray is
easily removed for cleaning.
Use only HE High Efficiency detergent.
