Notice how the seller said "10 years old". Didn't realize Kenmore belt-drive washers in Coppertone were being made in 1995, LOL! |

(copied this over from the other post of the same items) What is the with three-pin/prong to three-pin/prong adapter on the power cord? Ah cool.. this is one of those Kenmores with "redundancy". Water temperature selection is on the timer AND via a switch. Turn to "Automatic" to select via the timer. IIRC this was the smaller capacity tub, although based on the pic I appear to be wrong. |

Repair-Man is right--I tried to tell Sacto about this the last time a similar washer was on fleabay. Cycle Modifier didn't appear until cost cutting measures of the 1979 or 1980. Before that, totally separate knobs for each function. I'm stumped about whether this is ex-large capacity or not given high isn't ex-hi waterlevel. Our 1975 Series 70 had ex-lo, med, & ex-hi. And yes Toggle, when this uni-face look came out and took all the cycle buttons away, I thought, why have the auto water temp setting on the water temp knob--just a worthless gimmick. Again, cost-cutting. That dryer is the harvest gold version of m y 1978 GE dryer in white--also had the matching washer. The control panel colors are exactly like mine. However, my Perm Press/Poly Knits button didn't have the "Special" designator for drying temp, it said high-heat. So, this could have been a 1979 model. A year or two afer I bought mine, the same button for auto cycle dry specifically stated medium heat. I flet cheated until I got my 1986 LK with variable temp knob--I would have preferred a medium temp setting on the GE, but nooo, they didn't listen to me!! |

Maytag plugs were horizontal and both a W and Gas D could be plugged into one outlet. I'm surprised no one copied that style. IIRC they also had a red dot on the plug to mark the hot prongs. This had something to do with using a three-to-two prong adapter (in the US. These are illegal in Canada, non?) |
