Kenmore Automatic Washers - Manual (Page 27)

After loading the washer, measure and
add the recommended amount of fabric
softener into the dispenser. Follow
manufacturer’s directions.
NOTE: Pouring too much fabric softener
into the dispenser will cause the fabric
softener to dispense instantly into the
load due to siphoning action. This instant
“dump” could damage fabrics and will
make it appear that your dispenser is
not working correctly.

USING THE LIQUID FABRIC

Dispenser for Cleaning

Pull the blue lock ring up,
then remove dispenser from agitator

STEP 2. Flush the dispenser with
warm water.
To Replace the Fabric Softener
Dispenser
STEP 1.
Be sure the blue lock ring
is pulled up. Starting at an angle (see
illustration), push the bottom of the
dispenser down on the agitator top.
STEP 2. When the dispenser is
seated on the agitator, push the blue
lock ring down until it snaps in place.
It must fit tightly.
• Add warm water to fill the dispenser
until it reaches the crossed opening at
the bottom of the funnel-shaped portion
of the dispenser.
• Fabric softener is dispensed into the
first deep rinse water automatically.
NOTE: Fabric softeners are not com­
patible with detergents. This dispenser
should never be used in the PREWASH
Cycle since it would dispense fabric
softener into a wash load that has not
been rinsed. Undiluted fabric softener
spilled on fabric may result in spots that
look like oil stains.
If you ever use your dispenser this way
by mistake, rewash the load with extra
detergent to remove these deposits.
