SELF-CLEANING LINT FILTER
Lint is filtered from the load
automatically - there’s no
messy cleanup.
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.
DUAL-ACTION" AGITATOR
UNDERSTANDING NORMAL
WASHER SOUNDS
Your new laundry center’s washer may
make sounds that your old washer 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 Wash
When you select a small load size set­
ting 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.
Kenmore’s DUAL-ACTION™ Agitator
gives you flexible fabric care for even
your largest loads.
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.
The upper portion of the
agitator moves in only
one direction to help you
wash larger loads. The clockwise
rotation of the agitator forces the clothes
on top down to the bottom where most
of the washing action is.
