PRE - INSTALLATION
It is mandatory to have a 16 amp. 3-pin 230V AC, 50Hz electrical
C
point with a 16 amp. MCB or Automatic short circuit protection
device within 1 meter of the machine. Make sure it has proper
earthing.
Fixed plumbing is recommended for the machine. The water inlet of the
C
machine has a collar with 3/4” parallel internal threads. The water supply
point with an external thread3/4” parallel thread should be available
within 1 meter of the machine location. Please refer the figures (page. no.
8) under the topics WATER INLET and WATER OUTLET.

from the wall.
1. Do not place the machine on slanting, uneven, unstable surface.
2. Level the machine by using the adjustable screws provided at the bottom
for levelling.
3. Loosen securing nut. Adjust the screw to change level. Tighten securing
nut to ensure that screw is locked into place.
4. Make sure that the machine rests on all four feet on a level surface, at all
times, to avoid vibrations during operation
5. Machine should be leveled again in case it is moved to a new site.
6. Machine is provided with ventilating openings on the base. Hence it is
always recommended to put the machine on the floor after removing the
carpet.

Connect
to a 230V, 50Hz single phase AC supply. The appliance must
be positioned so that the plug is accessible.
l
Machine must be earthed properly before operation. This can be done
by using a 3 - pin plug and a properly earthed operated socket of 16
Ampere rating.
l
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in
order to avoid a hazard. It should not be stretched when connected to
the main socket.
l
Use of extension cord not recommended since it may not be properly
earthed.
l
Use ISI marked sockets of reputed make for preventing loose contact
of power supply cable.
l
Ensure that there is a firm connection between the 3 PIN PLUG and
SOCKET, else it may result in sparking and subsequent failure of 3
pin plug.
l
Ensure that L,N,E is as per the Fig. Shown

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION/ CONSERVATION ISSUES
Your washing machine uses water, energy and detergent efficiently, thereby protecting the
environment and reducing your household costs.
Using your washing machine in an efficient and environmentally friendly manner:
Do not exceed recommended load.
Cottons
5.5kg
Easy-care
3.0kg
Delicates and Woollens
2.0kg
Where possible, use the 60 0 C Eco program instead of the 95 0 C Cottons program. The
extended washing time achieves a cleaning result comparable to the 950 C program, but uses considerably less
energy.
Avoid using the Prewash program when washing lightly to normally soiled laundry.
Add detergent according to the degree of soiling, amount of laundry and water hardness, and observe the
dertergent manufacturer’s instructions.
BEFORE USING YOUR WASHING MACHINE FOR THE FIRST TIME
Caution
The washing machine must have been installed and connected properly (refer page 7)
Your appliance was tested before leaving the factory. To remove any water left over from testing
procedures, the first washing cycle should be carried out without laundry in the machine.
Do not load any laundry.
1. Turn on water tap.
2. Pull out the detergent dispenser up to the end stop.
3. Pour approx. 1 litre of water into chamber II of the detergent dispenser.
4. Pour ½ measuring beaker of detergent into dispenser II. Do not use any special detergents for delicates or
woollens (excessive foam).
5. Close the detergent dispenser.

EXCLUSIVE IN-BUILT FEATURES:
A UNIQUE SHOWER SYSTEM:
Scoops on the inner drum pick up water and shower through perforated fins on
the laundry as the drum rotates. This ensures a thorough wetting of the laundry,
What’s more, the process requires less water and thus less energy to heat it.
COOL DOWN CYCLE:
Hot water drained after main wash cycle can be harmful for people and environment. Hot water is cooled down by taking
additional cold water automatically, which also reduces the concentration of detergent, thus ensuring better rinsing efficiency
and Eco friendly environment. The cool down cycle takes place only if the temperature of water inside the washing machine is
high thus saving water.
UNBALANCE DETECTION & CORRECTION:
If the wash load is very unevenly distributed, the washing machine will try to distribute for balancing the load inside the drum.
In this process, the washing machine will stop in between and try to distribute the load. Some times the washing machine will
spin at lower spin speeds or no spin for safety reasons and to reduce stresses on the dynamic parts of washing machine. This in
turn will increase the life of the mechanical components of washing machine. program duration may vary under such
conditions.
BUILT IN MEMORY:
The washing machine has an inbuilt memory thus ensuring the machine will start from the same point where it had stopped, on
resumption of power supply,excluding certains steps where redistribution of clothes is necessary.

DETERGENT TO BE USED AND QUANTITY
• The best washing results will be achieved by using the correct dosage of detergent .
• Use the detergent as per the instructions on the detergent packaging, However the dosage need to be adjusted during
usage to avoid effects of inadequate/excess detergent as mentioned below.
• The quantity of detergent to be used will depend on
a. Quantity of clothes being washed
b. Degree of soilage of clothes
c. Water hardness
• Hard water and heavily soiled clothes require more, while less soiled clothes requires less then recommended
quantity of detergents.
• Do not use dry cleaning agents.
• Frequent use of insufficient detergent will be noticeable as follows:
a. Washing appears grey or not properly clean
b. Grey/brown stains appear on the clothes
• Only use Detergent recommended for front loading washing machines.
• Excess use of detergent or not recommended detergent will result in
a. Higher environmental pollution
b. Generation of too much foam which may result in:• Building up of scales
• Poor rinse quality
• Less drying efficiency
• Reduction in life of the Components.
• More vibrations.
FABRIC CONDITIONER
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Fabric softener, Whitening, Enzyme, Disinfectants, Bleaching, etc.
Fill in the middle chamber of detergent dispenser tray marked
not exceeding the level marked “Max”
Conditioner should be in liquid/solution form only (powders to be mixed in water)
Fabric softener gives a soft feel and smooth surface to fabrics.
Whitener gives ‘Whiteness’ to white clothes and brightness to coloured clothes.
Enzymes help to remove stains of sweat, blood etc.
Chlorine bleach is used for white clothes and oxygen bleach is used for coloured clothes.
A strong bleaching agent is not recommended for direct use in the washing machine.
Extremely dirty areas in clothes can be pretreated with bleach and then to be loaded in the machine for a
regular wash.
TREATMENT OF STAINS
• Stains need to be treated immediately while they are fresh. Usually stains are categorized as absorbed stains, builtup
•
•
•
stains, and compound stains.
Absorbed stains can be removed by rubbing gently a pad containing a suitable solvent over the stain from outer edge
towards centre by keeping stained cloth on absorbent fabric.
Built up and compound stains may be removed by first carefully brushing off stained area. Then rub gently with pad
containing solvent from the back of fabric.
It is advisable to try out the solvent on hidden part of the garment to verify its effect on clothes.
