Treat spots and stains before washing.

Tough stains must be treated properly before washing. If unsure, check with a dry cleaner.

Use only dyes/colour changers and limescale removers suitable for machine wash. Always follow package instructions.

Wash trousers and delicate laundry turned inside out.

Keep laundry items made of Angora wool in the freezer for a few hours before washing. This will reduce pilling.

Laundry that has been soiled with flour, lime dust, milk powder, etc. must be shaken off before placing into the machine. Dusts and powders on the laundry may build up on the inner parts of the machine in time and can cause damage.

Correct load capacity

The maximum load capacity depends on the type of laundry, the degree of soiling and the washing program desired.

Warning: If loading of the laundry has been incorrectly done, noise and vibration problems may occur in the machine.

Some water may have remained in the machine due to the quality control processes in the production of the machine. It is not harmful for the machine.

Warning: Use only detergents manufactured specifically for top loader washing machines.

When using detergent, softener, starch, fabric dye, bleach or limescale remover, read the manufacturer's instructions on the package carefully and follow the dosage values. Use a measuring cup if available.

Sorting

•

•

Mix large and small items in each load.

Separate heavily soiled items from lightly

• soiled ones.

Separate dark colours from light colours.

•

Separate colourfast items from non colourfast ones.

•

Separate robust fabrics from delicate.

•

Separate whites from coloured fabrics.

Loading

•

•

•

Lift the washer lid.

Arrange the articles to be washed loosely round the perimeter of the tub.

Load evenly as an off balance load may

• cause unnecessary vibrations.

Use a large load programme when washing permanent press garments.

These items need more space to move

• than heavy items such as jeans and towels.

Do not overload the machine as this will result in poor cleaning, increased creasing and excessive lint formation.

Using detergents, softener & bleach

Detergent

•

•

Add a measured amount of detergent to the detergent drawer.

Use only detergent specifically recommended for top loading washers and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Choosing the detergent type

•

The type of detergent to be used depends on the type and colour of the fabric.

Wash delicate clothes with special detergents only.

•

•

When washing dark coloured clothes and quilts, use a liquid detergent.

Wash woollens with special detergent made specifically for woollens.

Adjusting detergent amount

•

The amount of detergent to be used depends on the amount of laundry, the degree of soiling and water hardness.

Page 14

•

•

Do not use amounts exceeding the dosage quantities recommended on the detergent package to avoid problems of excessive foam and poor rinsing.

Use less detergent for small amounts or lightly soiled clothes.

Using softener

•

Add softener into the detergent drawer before washing.

•

Avoid spilling undiluted softener onto the clothes in the wash tub as it may damage them.

If the softener has lost its “fluidity”, dilute it

• with water before pouring it into the softener dispenser.

Note: in order to avoid residual, clean the detergent drawer every 2-3 months.

How to use bleach

Avoid spilling bleach onto the clothes in the machine as undiluted bleach may damage them.

1. Dilute bleach with twice the volume of water. Use only a little amount of bleach and rinse clothes well to avoid skin irritation. Do not pour bleach onto clothes.

2. Read and carefully follow the directions and warnings regarding the use of bleach.

3. Do not use bleach for coloured fabrics.

4. Do not use bleach and detergents by mixing them.

Using starch

•

Add liquid starch, powder starch or fabric

• dye into the detergent drawer.

Do not use softener and starch together in a washing cycle.

•

Wipe the inside of the machine with a damp and clean cloth after using starch.

Using limescale remover

•

When required, use limescale removers manufactured specifically for washing machines only.

When using detergent, softener, starch, fabric dye, bleach or limescale remover read the manufacturer's instructions on the package carefully and follow the dosage values. Use a measuring cup if available.

The filtering screen of the inlet valve is blocked by dirt

The inlet valve coil is damaged (A slight electromagnetic sound is normal when the inlet valve is operating)

The “Start/Pause” button is pressed after the power switch is pressed

The power is off

The power supply voltage is too low

The water volume does not reach the required mark (Washer will not work if the required water level is not met)

Washer is set to ”Delay” washing mode. (It will only start working when the delayed time has been reached)

The water drain hose has been placed too high.

The end of the water drain hose is blocked.

The internal rubber ring of the drain valve is blocked by dirt.

Check that the door lid is closed

Clothing is unevenly placed in the drum.

The ground is not flat or the machine is not level.

During the spin process if washing is piled to one side of the spin tub it will cause unbalance of the spin tub. The sensor will pick up the unbalance and will automatically correct it. If after 3 corrections the unbalance remains the auto correction cannot resolve the problem then the user must manually place the clothing evenly inside the tub to solve the problem.
