Vacuuming Liquids
1. When picking up small amounts of liquid
the filter may be left in place.
2. When picking up large amounts of liquid
we recommend that the filter be
removed. If the filter is not removed, it
will become saturated and misting
may appear in the exhaust.
3. After using the vac to pick up liquids,
the filter must be dried to reduce the
risk of possible mildew and damage to
the filter.
4. When the liquid in the drum reaches a
predetermined level, the float mechanism
will rise automatically to cut off
airflow. When this happens, turn off
the vac, unplug the power cord, and
empty the drum. You will know that the
float has risen because vac airflow
ceases and the motor noise will
become higher in pitch, due to
increased motor speed.
IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of damage
to the vac do not run motor with float
in raised position

Kenmore uses a coding system, and within that system, failing to provide the complete model number can result in a bunch of different products. In your case, the number provided shows a dishwasher and one or two other products sold under the Kenmore name. The important thing is to provide the complete model number as shown on the tage that contains both the model and serial numbers, and a valid Kenmore model number will typically start with three digits followed by a group of other numbers. An exmaple would be: 116.527100 (fictitous number, but shown in the format you need). If you can provide that correct format, I can probably direct you to the information you're looking for.
