What's New Under The Lid? ���������������������������������������������3 Troubleshooting; Important - Sears Kenmore 110.20372710 Manual De Uso Y Cuidado

Your new washer will operate differently than your past agitator-style washer.
To allow for higher spin speeds, the lid will lock and the Lid
Locked light will turn on. When this light is lit, the lid is locked
and cannot be opened. When this light is blinking, the washer
is paused. When this light is off, the lid can be opened. After a
cycle is started, the washer will fill to the appropriate water level.
When the washer is done filling, it will start to agitate. If you
need to open the lid to add a garment after this point, the lid will
remain unlocked during the entire agitation portion of the wash
phase. The cycle will automatically pause when the lid is opened,
and the cycle will resume once the lid is closed. The lid will lock
before the spin phase begins. If you need to pause or stop after
this point, you must touch the START/PAUSE/UNLOCK LID button
and wait for the lid to unlock. The lid will only unlock after washer
movement has stopped. Depending on when in the cycle you try
to pause, it may take several seconds to several minutes for the lid
to unlock� Touch the START/PAUSE/UNLOCK LID button to resume
the cycle.
Water Level Options
Set the Water Level knob to the Auto setting and the washer
automatically adjusts the water level to the load size. Set the
Water Level knob to the Deep Fill setting and the washer will
fill to the maximum water level.
This washer will perform a series of spins to check for load
balance. During this time, a series of clicks and a whirring
noise signal that sensing technology is determining if there
is an off-balance load.
Normal Sounds You Can Expect
At different stages of the wash cycle, you may hear sounds
and noises that are different from those of your previous washer.
For example, you may hear a clicking and hum at the beginning
of the spin phase, as the lid lock goes through a self-test. There will
be different kinds of humming sounds, as the agitator tests for load
balance or moves the load. And sometimes, you may hear nothing
at all, as the washer determines the correct water level for your
load or allows time for clothes to soak�

IMPORTANT:

• The lid must be closed before the washer basket fills with water and for the wash cycle to start. If the lid is open and filling stops,
close the lid and touch the START/PAUSE/UNLOCK LID button to complete the cycle.
• The Fabric Softener option must be set when using fabric softener in the fabric softener dispenser. This ensures that fabric softener
is added at the correct time in the rinse phase and is evenly distributed.

Spray Rinse
Select cycles default to a spray rinse. During these cycles, you
will hear water enter the washer as the tub spins, allowing the
rinse water to penetrate clothes. Check the "Cycle Guide" for
details�
Choosing the Right Detergent
Use only High Efficiency detergents. The package will be marked
"HE" or "High Efficiency." Using non-HE detergent will likely
result in longer cycle times and reduced rinsing performance. It
may also result in component malfunction and, over time, buildup
of mold or mildew. HE detergents should be low-sudsing and
quick-dispersing to produce the right amount of suds for the
best performance. They should hold soil in suspension so it is not
redeposited onto clean clothes. Not all detergents labeled as High
Efficiency are identical in formulation and their ability to reduce
suds. For example, natural, organic, or homemade HE detergents
may generate a high level of suds. Always follow the detergent
manufacturer's instructions to determine the amount of detergent
to use�
Use only High Efficiency (HE) detergent.
