Adding clothes after wash cycle has begun

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.
Sanitized
This Kenmore washer has a sanitizing temperature
that is
certified by NSF International,
an independent third-party testing
and certification
organization. The certification
verifies that the
sanitizing cycle reduces 99.9% of bacteria typically found on
clothing, bedding, and towels, and there is no carryover of
bacteria between loads after the cycle is complete.
If the "Steam Sanitize" wash temperature was selected, when the
wash cycle is complete, the SANITIZED status light glows, (the
CLOTHES CLEAN status light will glow green), 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 SANITIZED light and CLOTHES CLEAN light
turn off.
Certified to Sanitize
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 after a cycle begins or before POWER is
pressed.
To lock the controls
Select and hold CYCLE SIGNAL for 3 seconds after the cycle
starts, or when the washer is powered off.

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.
