Look its a spaceship
OMG OMG OMG. Madame has the vapours. This is mom's TOL Lady Kenmore that was purchased circa 1968. The round dial-like cup is actually a holder for neon status-of-cycle indicator lights W-R-R-W-R-R-D The slide switch is a selectable 12 or 26 minute dry The three square lights on the right are the water temperature indicator lighs. I believe they are labeled "cool", "normal, and "Sanitary temp." This machine may also have had two 10 watt bulbs over the rectangular pusbutton swithces to illumiante them. (On her later 73 model the selector buttons where chromed and they did have lights above it.) | ||

IIRC: Heavy Wash Normal Wash Light Wash Rinse & Dry Rinse & Hold Sani. temp Cancel & Drain My instinct tells me there should be a "plate warmer" selection/cycle/programme, but I really don't recall one. As a kid it was fascinating to hear the hidden mechanical timer clicking and advancing to the proper starting position. | ||

Yay germ-o-phobes!
The upper spray arm is jsut a one inch wide tube (2.5cm) that juts out from the center (L to R) of the rear of the machine to a depth of about half the upper-rack rack, say one foot, shy. (30cm). It sprayd up and to the right, thereby causing the Roto-rack to spin counter (anti-) clockwise. There is a screw-off cap at the end of the tube for cleaning it of debris. The graphics read SEARS LADY KENMORE AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER WITH HYGIENIC RINSE I know my mother bought this one to prevent one child's illnesses /colds from cross-contaminating the other children. (A spash of bleach in the water would have been a lot less expensive and faster!) | ||

May be true that it wasn't used, but.... I'm thinking it looks.....faded. Possibly not stored properly? | ||
