Status Lights; Cycles - Kenmore 110.4708* Use And Care Manual

Status Lights

These lights show which portion of the cycle the washer is
operating. They also indicate when you can add an additional
item to the wash cycle and when the controls are locked.
Adding clothes
This washer allows an 8-minute period in which other garments
may be added to the load. You can add items to the washer if the
ADD CLOTHES status light is glowing.
To add items when Add Clothes light is glowing
1. Select STOP once. The washer door unlocks, and items can
be added.
2. To continue the cycle, close the door and select and hold
START (for approximately 1 second).
To add items when Add clothes light is not glowing
1. Select STOP twice. This will cancel the wash cycle and
options. The washer door unlocks, and items can be added.
2. Close the door and select the new cycle and options. Select
and hold START (for approximately 1 second).
NOTES:
When selecting a new cycle do not add additional detergent.
Adding an item after the "Add Clothes" light is off may not
allow for proper cleaning of that item.
Clothes Clean
When the wash cycle is complete, the CLOTHES CLEAN status
light glows, the door unlocks, and the wash load can be removed
from the washer. The washer powers down automatically
60 minutes after the cycle is complete and the CLOTHES CLEAN
light goes off.
Locking controls
The Control Lock avoids unintended use of the washer. You can
also use the control lock feature to avoid unintended cycle or
option changes during a cycle. When CONTROL LOCKED is lit,
all buttons are disabled except for STOP and START. You can
lock the controls while the washer is operating.
To lock the controls
Select and hold CYCLE SIGNAL for 3 seconds.
The status light next to the CYCLE SIGNAL button will glow.
To unlock the controls
Select and hold CYCLE SIGNAL for 3 seconds until the status
light turns off.
NOTE: To lock or unlock the controls when the washer is off,
press and hold CONTROLS LOCK/UNLOCK for 3 seconds.
Door Locked
When the status light glows, the door is locked.
Sensing/Revising Est. Time
The cycle times vary automatically based on your water pressure,
water temperature, detergent, and clothes load.
The washer will automatically sense the progress in the cycle and
adjust the Estimated Time Remaining display. While the washer is
sensing, the estimated time will flash and the Sensing/Revising
Est. Time status light will glow. When the sensing is complete, the
flashing stops, the status light goes off and the Estimated Time
Remaining display is updated.
The cycle time will be extended if oversudsing occurs or the load
is unbalanced. The SUD routine removes extra suds and assures
proper rinsing of your garments. See "Troubleshooting." During
the unbalance routine the time displayed may pause until this
activity is complete, then resume with the remainder of the cycle.

Cycles

Wash Cycles
Choose Wash Cycles by turning the selector knob. The cycle indicator
light will glow when selected. Each cycle is designed for different
types of fabric and soil levels. The modifier indicator lights, on the
right-hand side of the panel, will change as cycles are selected.
Each cycle has a preset Soil Level (estimated cycle time),
Water Temperature and Spin Speed and may have preset
Options. The preset settings provide the recommended fabric
care for the selected cycle.
The preset settings will glow green to show the preselected
options and modifiers, and can be changed anytime before
START is selected. Not all Options and Modifiers are available
with all cycles. Available modifier selections will glow amber.
(To change settings after the cycle has started, select STOP
once, then select the desired settings. Select and hold START
[for approximately 1 second] to continue the cycle.)
