Lib Instructions - Kenmore Autimatic washers with Capypso wash motion Use And Care Manual

Did you use powder detergent in a low speed cycle?
Consider using liquid detergent.
Did you add detergent, chlorine bleach or fabric softener
too late in the cycle?
Detergent and chlorine bleach should be added before
starting the washer. Fabric softener should be added before
the rinse status light is lit.
Did you use EXPRESS WASH on a large load?
EXPRESS WASH is designed to wash only a few items for
best results.
Load is wrinkled
• Did you unload the washer promptly?
Unload the washer as soon as it stops.
• Did you use the right cycle for the load being washed?
Use the Delicate/Casual cycle or another cycle with a low
spin speed to reduce wrinkling.
• Did you overload the washer?
The wash load must be balanced and not overloaded. Loads
should move freely during washing.
• Are the hot and cold water hoses reversed?
Check to be sure the hot and cold water hoses are connected
to the right faucets. (See "Installation Instructions.")
Load is tangled or twisted
• Did you overload the washer?
See "Starting Your Washer" for maximum load size. Loads
should move freely during washing.
Grey whites, dingy colors
• Did you properly sort the load?
Dye transfer can occur when mixing whites and colors in a
load. Sort dark clothes from whites and lights.
• Was the wash temperature too low?
Use hot or warm washes if safe for the load. Hot water should
be at least 11 I°F (44°C) to clean heavy or greasy soils.
Did you use enough detergent, or do you have hard
water?.
Use more detergent for washing heavy soils in cold or hard
water. Water temperature should be at least 70°F (21°C) for
soap to dissolve and work properly.
Garment damage
• Checkthe following:
Were sharp items removed from pockets before washing?
Empty pockets, zip zippers, snap or hook fasteners before
washing.
Were strings and sashes tied to prevent tangling?
Were items damaged before washing? Mend rips and broken
threads in seams before washing.
Did you overload the washer?
See "Starting Your Washer" for maximum load size.
Did you properly add chlorine bleach?
Do not pour chlorine bleach directly on load. Use your liquid
chlorine bleach dispenser. Wipe up bleach spills. Undiluted
bleach will damage fabrics. Do not place load items on top of
the bleach dispenser when loading and unloading the washer.
• Did you follow the manufacturer s care label instructions?
Cycle too long
• Are you using a High Efficiency Detergent?
If using a regular sudsing detergent, the washer may be using
extra rinses to remove the suds, which will cause the cycle to
run longer. Use a High Efficiency detergent like TIDE' HE,
which produces less suds, or reduce the amount of regular
detergent.
Wash temperature is not what I picked
• Are the hot and cold water inlet hoses reversed?
As washing progresses, the wash temperature will decrease
slightly for hot and warm washes. This is normal.
