Cycle Options - Kenmore 417.4110 Series Use & Care Manual

Cycle Options

To add options, press the corresponding options buttons to
illuminate the selections desired. To delete options, press
the options buttons again and the indicator lights will turn
off . Some options require a "Press & Hold" eff ort to acti-
vate or deactivate the secondary function.
Not all options are available on every model. To protect
your fabrics, not all options are available with every cycle.
If an option is not appropriate for the cycle, the indicator
will not light. Occasionally, a setting and option in the same
cycle will confl ict with each other, such as Add Steam and
Energy Saver. When this happens, the option selected fi rst
will cause the confl icting option to not be selectable.
NOTE
To change the options after the cycle starts, press PAUSE,
adjust the setting and press START to resume the cycle.
Stain Treat
The Stain Treat option adds a special 10 minute soak/
pretreat agitation before the main wash. It fi lls initially
with detergent and cold water to prevent protein stains
from setting, then the internal heater is activated to heat
the wash water to remove non-protein based stains. Can
be used with Prewash for the toughest stains.
Add Steam
Select this option to add approximately 20 minutes of
tumbling in steam during the wash cycle. It is recom-
mended for heavily soiled loads to help enhance the
release of tough stains from fabrics after initial agitation.
NOTE
• Steam may not necessarily be visible inside drum
during a steam wash cycle.
• Steam may not be present during entire steam wash cycle.
IMPORTANT
• If steam is selected, rinse temperatures will be elevated.
• If washer is paused during a steam wash cycle, the door
will remain locked due to higher temperature in drum.
DO NOT force open - it will unlock upon cooling.
• During a steam cycle you may notice steam exiting
from the rear vent of the washer - this is normal and
not cause for alarm.
Energy Saver
The Energy Saver option reduces the warm water tem-
perature a few degrees to save energy.
Operating Instructions
Pre Wash
Select this option to add a short initial wash period to a
cycle. Heavily soiled and stained loads will prewash for
approximately 5 minutes. The water will drain and the
load will automatically advance to the regular wash cycle.
See step 5 in " Operating Your Washer " section in this
guide for details on adding detergent to the dispenser.
Extra Rinse
Use this option when additional rinsing is desired to
remove excess dirt and detergent. It is recommended for
heavily soiled loads or if household members have sensi-
tive skin.
Extra Spin
Use this option to add minutes to the fi nal spin at the
selected Spin Speed. This will improve water extraction,
decrease drying time and save energy.
Time Manager

Manager button to select a level of duration manage-
ment - aggressively manage (quickest), moderately man-
age (quicker) or no management (normal).

your schedule or during off peak energy hours. The delay
time selected will be displayed and begin counting down
