INTRODUCTION
Welcome
Thank you for buying a Fisher & Paykel washer dryer. We are proud of this washer dryer
and trust it will serve you well for many years.
Your washer dryer gives you the ultimate convenience in one simple machine. There
are numerous wash, dry and continuous wash and dry cycles with additional options,
meaning you can perform every wash and dry task with ease and have the knowledge
that your clothes are receiving the best possible care.
With the ability to automatically sense when your clothes are dry, your washer
dryer is more efficient, making it kinder on your wallet and the environment. Having
the technology of a water condensing dryer allows clothes to be dried in a closed
environment where the hot moist air is condensed and pumped directly into a drain,
therefore requiring no external ventilation.
At Fisher & Paykel we aim to provide innovative products that are simple to use,
ergonomic and that will exceed expectations. Thousands of tonnes of laundry and
80years of experience have been programmed into your washer dryer to help give you
the best possible performance.
Please take the time to read these instructions carefully before you begin using your
machine. Following the advice in this user guide will ensure you get the performance
you expect from your machine with the best possible wash and dry results. Keep these
instructions for future reference.
We hope you enjoy your new washer dryer. We have certainly enjoyed designing it for you.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
When using your washer dryer, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
• CAUTION: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent
resetting of the thermal cut-out, this appliance
must not be supplied through an external switching
device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that
is regularly switched on and off by the utility.
• This washer dryer is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they are supervised or given
instructions on how to use the washer dryer by
someone responsible for their safety.
• The washer dryer should only be used for washing,
rinsing and drying of textiles where this is indicated
on the care label.
• The door will be locked from the start of the cycle
until the cycle is complete for safety reasons. It is
possible to open the door during the cycle under
certain conditions (refer to page20).
• Never force the door open.
• Keep children away from the washer dryer while it is
in operation.
• Supervise children to ensure they do not play with
the washer dryer or climb inside the drum.
• Do not touch the door during a drying cycle as the
door can become hot.
• Do not open the detergent dispenser during the cycle.
• The only user-removable parts of the washer dryer
are the inlet hose, detergent dispenser and the pump
5
Page 8
SAFETY AND WARNINGS
filter. No other parts are designed to be removed
by anyone other than a Fisher & Paykel trained and
supported service technician.
• When disposing of the washer dryer, it is
recommended that the door is removed to avoid
children getting trapped inside, and that the
electrical cable is cut off close to the washer dryer.
• Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other
flammable or explosive substances to the wash
water. These substances give off vapours that could
ignite or explode.
• Do not wash or dry articles that have been
previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or
spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or
other flammable or explosive substances as they
give off vapours that could ignite or explode.
• Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements
should not be placed in the washer dryer. Damage to
the machine can result if the metal reinforcements
come loose during washing or drying.
• Check and remove all objects from pockets, eg
lighters and matches.
• The maximum mass of dry textile material is four
kilograms (WD7560P1 and WD8060P1 models) or
five kilograms (WD8560F1 model). Do not overload
your washer dryer.
• Never wash or dry rubber articles, fibreglass, or any
plastic items or film, eg plastic lined tablecloths and
baby bibs.
• Clothes must go through the cool down/airing phase
in the final part of the drying cycle. This ensures
items are left at a temperature where they will not
be damaged. If for any reason the washer dryer is
stopped before the cycle has finished, dry clothes
6
Page 9
SAFETY AND WARNINGS
should be removed immediately and not left in the
dryer. Clothes should be quickly spread out flat to
cool so heat can dissipate, not left bunched up, eg in
a clothes basket.
• This washer dryer has been designed for domestic
use only, not for commercial applications, such
as massage/beauty clinics where there may be
increased lint accumulation or flammable materials
in the atmosphere or load.
• Do not operate this product if there is an
accumulation of lint in or around the washer dryer.
• Children should be supervised to ensure they do not
play with the washer dryer.
• Unplug the machine from the power supply when it
is not in use.

.
• Never attempt to repair the washer dryer yourself.
• For problems that cannot be solved from information
in this user guide, turn off and unplug your washer
dryer and contact a Fisher & Paykel trained and
supported service technician.
Spontaneous combustion
IMPORTANT!
To reduce the risk of fire in a washer dryer the
following should be observed:
• Items that have been spotted or soaked with
vegetable oil or cooking oil are a fire hazard and
should not be placed in a tumble washer dryer.
7
Page 10
SAFETY AND WARNINGS
• Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously,
especially when exposed to heat sources such as a
washer dryer. The items become warm causing an
oxidation reaction in the oil. This oxidation creates
heat. If the heat cannot escape the items can
become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking
or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from
escaping creating a fire hazard.
• Fabrics that contain vegetable oil, cooking oil or
have been contaminated by hair care products
should not be washed or dried. If unavoidable, these
fabrics should be washed in a hot water wash with
extra detergent — this will reduce, but not eliminate
the fire hazard. The cool down cycle of the washer
dryer should be used to reduce the temperature of
these items. They must not be removed from the
washer dryer and piled or stacked while hot.
• Items that have previously been cleaned in, washed
in, soaked in or spotted with flammable liquids or
solids, eg petrol/gasoline, kerosene, dry cleaning
solvents, vegetable or cooking oil, acetone,
denatured alcohol, some brands of spot removers,
turpentine, waxes and wax removers or other
flammable or explosive substances should not be
placed in a washer dryer.
• Do not dry unwashed items in the washer dryer.
• Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used
as specified by the fabric softener instructions.
• The washer dryer must not be used if industrial
chemicals have been used for cleaning.

Time to go
Your washer dryer displays approximately how many minutes are
remaining in the cycle you are running, so that you can tell at a
glance when your laundry will be finished. Please be aware that a
number of factors can influence the overall cycle time, eg the water
flow rate, water pressure, load size, cycle, fabric type of garments,
wetness of the load and options selected. Therefore, cycle times
will vary, even during a cycle. Unexpected events in a wash cycle
(eg out of balance, oversudsing) can lengthen the cycle time.
Wash and dry options
This button controls the functionality of your washer dryer. If you
are wanting to perform an individual wash only cycle please select
‘Wash’. If you are wanting a continuous wash and dry cycle please
select both ‘Wash’ and ‘Dry’. This cycle will seamlessly continue from

When preparing your washer or dryer load there are some important things to consider:
Sorting
It is best that you sort your garments before placing them into the washer dryer. Sort
into loads of similar items, and loads that will take similar times to dry. Always separate
coloured items from whites, especially when they are new.
Some soils, like mud and blood are best washed in cold water. Oily soils (eg some food
stains or makeup) are best washed in warm water.
Look for care label instructions on your clothes as this will inform you of wash and dry
recommendations.
Wash and dry fine, delicate fabrics (eg synthetics and polyester-cotton shirts) separately
from thick, heavy fabrics (eg towels, flannelette sheets). This prevents damage and the
possibility of some items becoming over-dried whilst others are still damp. It also helps
to extend the life of your clothing and linen.
We recommend removing your clothes from the washer dryer after the completion
of a wash or dry cycle to help decrease the chance of wrinkles, and dye transfer from
coloured items to white items.
Wash and dry towels on the towels cycle to reduce lint transfer onto other clothing
items and to efficiently wash and dry towels.
Items of clothing with screen-printing should be turned inside out to prevent damage to
the print. Also garments with hooks or zippers should be fastened and where possible,
turned inside out.
In the following table (next page) there are recommendations for what cycles and
settings you may wish to wash and dry different items on, and suggestions for special
wash and dry requirements.
IMPORTANT!
Over loading the washer dryer with a dry load above this line on any drying cycle can
lead to poor drying performance.

COMMENTS
Towels produce a lot of lint and are
best dried on their own.
Ensure duvet/doona cover openings are
buttoned/domed before placing in the
washer dryer.
Only wash and dry one bulky item at
a time and place a few knotted towels
into the machine at the same time when
drying to help move the item around.
‘Wrinkle Free’ should be selected to
help minimise creasing once the wash
and/or drying cycle has finished.
A gentle deep water wash for delicate
items, where it is best to dry these
clothes on a flat surface away from
direct sunlight.
You can further reduce the dryness
level to damp for very delicate items.
Turn jeans inside out to help maintain
their appearance. Dry separately from
other items.
Wash new brightly coloured clothing
individually to ensure colour run does
not occur.
Cotton can withstand high
temperatures, use ‘Wrinkle Free’ to
minimise creasing.
Greater water-using cycle to ensure all
detergent is rinsed out of the load.
Wash on high temperatures to kill bugs
and germs and increase dryness level
to ensure no moisture is left in the items.
For small load sizes that are lightly
soiled or that need a quick freshen up.
Emptying the pump filter after washing
these items and performing a rinse
cycle with an empty drum to wash
away any residue is recommended. The
pump filter after washing these clothes
and performing a rinse cycle with an
empty drum to wash away any residue.
Include detergent to wash away any
scrud or dirt build up.

SORTING AND LOADING
Before you load
Check pockets for items that could damage your clothes or get caught in the washer
dryer.
Close zippers, hooks and eyes, and other fastenings (ie fasten the opening of duvet/
doona covers), and remove loose bra wires. All these can damage both your washer
dryer and your clothes.
Place delicate items, such as lingerie, in a mesh laundry bag if performing a wash only
cycle. If performing a continuous wash and dry cycle or an individual dry cycle it is
recommended not to use a mesh bag to ensure good drying performance.
Pre-treat any stains, taking care not to spray pre-treaters on your washer dryer as they
can cause damage to the plastic surfaces.
Loading
It is more efficient to wash larger loads, so try to collect enough items to loosely fill the
drum when the items are dry.
If performing a continuous wash and dry cycle or an individual dry cycle please take
note of the dryer capacity to ensure the appropriate dryness level is reached. Note: the
dryer capacity is less than the wash capacity.
Before performing a continuous wash and dry cycle or an individual dry cycle, garments
should be fluffed up and loaded evenly to minimise creasing and wrinkling, and to
ensure the load is dried evenly. Make sure there is plenty of room for the garments to
tumble freely while drying.
It is a good idea to wash and dry ‘permanent press’ types garments (eg business shirts)
together on a separate cycle with the ‘Wrinkle Free’ option on. This will help reduce
wrinkling and the need for ironing.
If you run a wash cycle then manually want to select a drying cycle, fluff up the items in
the machine before starting a drying cycle.
Hint: For a drying cycle, load the washer dryer in terms of the space the garments take
up when dry, rather than wet. Do not overload a drying cycle as it may damage your
washer dryer and clothes.
To reduce tangling
Load items individually when performing a drying cycle.
Only dry bedding loads of up to a maximum of 5kg or 4kg in the dryer (depending on
the model).
To reduce creasing
If performing a continuous wash and dry cycle remove items from the dryer as soon as
the drying cycle is completed.
If the items are going to be left in the machine after any cycle, select ‘Wrinkle Free’ to
help reduce creasing.
Shake clothes out after a wash cycle and before performing a dry cycle and load
individually to help items dry evenly.
Launder permanent press garments separately, eg business shirts.
Allow enough room in the dryer for clothes to tumble freely.
Hang garments as soon as the dryer cycle is complete to reduce the need for ironing.
25
Page 28
SORTING AND LOADING
Lint
Some items are lint givers, while others are lint collectors. Always dry lint givers and
collectors separately.
Delicate or easily damaged items (eg silk garments, nylon stockings, fine fabrics,
delicate embroidered fabrics, garments with metal accessories, sleeping bags or other
down items) should be dried separately, using the ‘Delicate’ cycle
LINT GIVERS LINT COLLECTORS
Towels Synthetics eg polar fleece
Flannelette sheets Corduroy
Nappies Polyester cottons
IMPORTANT!
Do not overload your washer dryer beyond its rated capacity.
Never put dripping wet clothes on top of the washer dryer as excess water may cause
an electrical hazard.
Please do not under any circumstances wash or dry an electric blanket or any
other electrical, plastic or rubber items in your washer dryer unless the care label
specifically states it is safe to do so. Never dry these items at high temperatures.
Do not wash or dry curtains in this washer dryer, as sunlight makes them brittle and
they may disintegrate during washing or drying.
Note: this washer dryer is designed to be used as a washer then a dryer, please keep
dry only cycles to a minimum to ensure lint is flushed out of the machine between
drying cycles.
26
Page 29
DETERGENT AND FABRIC SOFTENER
Detergent type
Your washer dryer requires low sudsing detergent to prevent oversudsing problems.
Low sudsing detergent comes in powder, liquid or pod form and is labelled
‘TopLoader/Front Loader’, ‘Low Suds’, ‘High Efficiency’ or ‘HE’.
Using any other detergent type that is not recommended for front loaders, may lead to
excessive suds formation, which will lengthen the cycle time as the machine waits for
the suds to dissolve.
Where do I put my detergent?
Liquid detergent
If you wish to use liquid detergent, add it to the main wash compartment on the left
side of the dispenser drawer marked with a (A). As the machine fills, water is
flushed into this compartment and is mixed with the detergent, the detergent solution
is then delivered to the drum. There may be a small volume of water left in the liquid
detergent dispenser at the end of the cycle. This is normal.
Powdered detergent
If you wish to use powdered detergent, the liquid detergent compartment MUSTbe
removed from the dispenser drawer. To do this firmly grasp and twist and pull the left
hand side of the internal compartment and pull upwards (B). To replace the liquid
detergent compartment slide it back into the drawer marked (C). Press down in
the middle untilit clicks (D).

If performing an individual drying cycle make sure there is no detergent in the
dispenser drawer.

DETERGENT AND FABRIC SOFTENER
Pods
Detergent pods are a ‘no mess’ alternative to powdered or liquid detergent. They must
be placed at the back of the drum prior to loading your clothes. This will ensure they are
activated quickly in the wash. Do not place pods in the detergent dispenser drawer or
on top of your clothes.
Pre Wash
If you wish to use the ‘Pre Wash’ option, liquid or powdered detergent must only be
placed in the prewash detergent compartment on the right hand side of the drawer,
marked with . When you select ‘Pre Wash’, the pre wash compartment is flushed at
the start of the cycle. For more information refer to ‘Wash cycle options’.
Detergent in the prewash
compartment marked
‘Pre Wash’ option
IMPORTANT!
Make sure the detergent dispenser drawer is completely closed before starting thecycle.
How much detergent?
The correct detergent dosage varies depending on the amount of soil in your load, the
size of the load and the water quality, so getting the correct dose takes some trial and
error. Use the instructions stated on the detergent package as a guide, then alter the
dosage according to the results.
If you overdose, you will get over foaming issues, but if you under-dose you will get
poorperformance and over time your washer dryer will start to smell as dirt and bacteria
builds upinside it.
Detergent advice
If your washer dryer smells you are probably not using enough detergent for the soil
1
level in your loads. Run a ‘Drum Clean’ cycle and either try a better quality detergent
or use a higher dose. If you are using an ‘Eco’ detergent, alternate the use of this with a
mainstream detergent.
Add the detergent BEFORE starting the cycle, close the dispenser and do not open it
2
while the cycle is running.
If you find foam leaking from your washer dryer, check you are using a low sudsing or
3
front loader type detergent and check the quantity you are using against the detergent
manufacturers recommendation. You may need to reduce the quantity you are using.
28
Page 31
DETERGENT AND FABRIC SOFTENER
Fabric softener
Add fabric softener to the middle compartment of the dispenser marked with a .
The washer dryer will automatically flush the fabric softener during the rinse part of
thecycle.
If you wish to use fabric softener we recommend to:
Use it sparingly. Measure it carefully and do not use more than 25mls (1/2cap), some
1
thicker varieties may need diluting.
Clean your dispenser regularly.
2
Clean your machine regularly using the ‘Drum Clean’ cycle.
3
Complete wash cycles at a wash temperature of 40°C or above at regular intervals
4
(eg every 5thwash) as washing in cold water increases the chance of scrud occurring
(see below).
Note: if you fill beyond the MAX mark, the fabric softener will be dispensed into the
bowl prematurely and contribute to scrud.
Scrud
Scrud is the name of the waxy build-up that can occur within any washing machine
(including washer dryers) when fabric softener comes in contact with detergent. This
build-up is not brought about by a fault in the machine. If scrud is allowed to build
up in the machine it can result in stains on clothes and an unpleasant smell in your
washerdryer.
If you wash a particularly dirty load, we recommend putting your washer dryer through
a ‘Rinse’ cycle once the cycle has finished and the load has been removed, to clean
outany remnants from that cycle.
29
Page 32
WASH AND DRY CYCLES
Your washer dryer has a number of wash, dry and continuous wash and dry cycles to suit
your laundering needs. Selecting the most appropriate cycle for each particular wash and
dry load will help ensure you get the best wash and dry result.

WASH AND DRY CYCLE OPTIONS
All wash and dry cycles default to the recommended options for that cycle based on
the average load expected to be washed. You can vary the options (eg ‘Wash Temp’,
‘Spin Speed’) to create your desired cycle. Note: some options are not available on some
cycles, for clothes care reasons, or because the option is not appropriate for the cycle.
To change a wash or dry option or options you have selected after a cycle has started,
simply touch and select your new setting, then touch again to resume the cycle
with the new setting or settings. Note: some options may not be available for selection
under certain conditions and after particular stages of the cycle have passed.
Wash Temp
Your washer dryer offers five wash temperatures:
Cold 30°C 40°C 60°C 90°C
Simply touch the ‘Wash Temp’ button to increase or decrease the wash temperature.
The washer dryer will fill with cold water and heat the water to the selected temperature
(if required).
Some temperatures are not available on some cycles as a safeguard for your clothes
(eg90°C on the ‘Delicate’ cycle).
Spin Speed
Simply increase or decrease the spin speed by touching the ‘Spin Speed’ button.
Selecting different spin speeds will limit the wash, rinse and final spin speed.
Selecting ‘No Spin’ will end the cycle after the rinse, allowing you to remove items you
wish to drip dry. If you have removed the items you wish to drip dry and there are items
remaining that you would like to process to spin, press ‘POWER’ and select the Spin
cycle. If necessary, modify the spin speed to best care for your load (ie spin delicate
items at ‘500’ rpm for best garment care).
Some continuous wash and dry cycles will limit spin speed selections to optimise drying
performance.
32
Page 35
WASH AND DRY CYCLE OPTIONS
Options
Pre Wash
For extra dirty loads you can perform a ‘Pre Wash’. Your washer dryer will start the wash
with a short wash in cool water to remove excess soil. After this the machine will drain
and then fill with the selected temperature for the main wash.
Simply touch the ‘Options’ button and select ‘Pre Wash’ when choosing your wash
options. Note: ‘Pre Wash’ cannot be selected after a wash cycle has been started, ie
if you touch and try to select ‘Pre Wash’ it will be unavailable. ‘Pre Wash’ must be
selected at the start of the cycle.
If you use the ‘Pre Wash’ option, liquid or powdered detergent needs to be placed in the
correct detergent compartment. The pre wash compartment is on the right hand side of
the drawer, marked . When you select ‘Pre Wash’, the compartment is flushed at the
start of the cycle.
Rinse+
If you have a particularly dirty load, or you have sensitive skin and wish to give your
clothes an extra rinse, select ‘Rinse+’ from the ‘Options’ button. Your load will undergo
an extra rinse to get rid of any residual detergent or soil in the items.
Note: ‘Rinse+’ will not be available if the ‘Eco’ option has been selected.
Eco
Use the ‘Eco’ option to save water and energy. Selecting ‘Eco’ will reduce the wash
temperature slightly and alter the wash and rinse programming. ‘Eco’ on a drying cycle
will perform a specially designed spin to optimise drying efficiency. ‘Eco’ selected for
a continuous wash and dry cycle will perform both of these ‘Eco’ functions making it a
water and energy efficient cycle.
Note: this option will not be available if the ‘Pre Wash’, ‘Rinse+’ or ‘Wrinkle Free’ options
have been selected.
Wrinkle Free
We recommend you remove the clothes from the washer dryer immediately after the
completion of the wash or dry cycle to minimise wrinkling and creasing of items and to
prevent dye run. However, if you will not be present at the end of the wash and/or dry
cycle you can select ‘Wrinkle Free’.
When ‘Wrinkle Free’ is selected, the washer dryer will tumble the clothes once every
15minutes for up to 12 hours after the wash or dry cycle has finished. The ‘Wrinkle Free’
light and button will flash, and the washer dryer will beep at regular intervals to
remind you to remove your load. To remove the load during this phase, simply touch the
button.
33
Page 36
WASH AND DRY CYCLE OPTIONS
Dryness Level
Your washer dryer takes the guess work out of choosing drying times by sensing the
dryness of the load. When your washer dryer senses that the clothes have dried to the
dryness level you have selected, the washer dryer will automatically enter the cool down
phase then finish the cycle.
The washer dryer has three dryness levels to choose from; ‘Damp’, ‘Dry’ and ‘Extra Dry’.
Choose the dryness level to suit your load depending on how dry you wish your clothes
to be. If you find the load is not dry enough, select the next dryness level up. The higher
the level, the longer the drying time and the drier your clothes will become.
Once the washer dryer has sensed that the load is dry it will automatically go into an
airing or cool down phase. During cool down the drum tumbles and cool air is blown
through the clothes. The machine will end the cycle when the load and the machine
have reached a safe temperature.
If you wish to, you can select a combination of these options to operate on the same
cycle. Simply touch the appropriate button until both options are selected. Repeat to
deselect an option.
For clothes care and performance reasons not all options may be available on some
cycles.
Add a Garment
The ‘Add a Garment’ option enables you to add or remove items during the wash or
drying stages of a cycle, under certain conditions. Once the ‘Add a Garment’ button
is touched during a wash cycle, the button and time to go will flash. Wait until you
hear the door unlock. Open the door and add or remove items. Close the door and touch
to restart the cycle. The ‘Add a Garment’ button will only operate when the wash
temperature selected is lower than 60°C. ‘Add a Garment’ can be used when the total
wash volume has been reached, as your washer dryer will drain the water to a lower
level if necessary, so the door can be opened.
If selecting ‘Add a Garment’ in a drying cycle the machine will automatically go into a
cool down phase and will display to decrease the temperature inside the drum
to a safe level. This may take a while depending on the cycle selected, load type, load
size and drying cycle completion time. The door will unlock when it has reached a safe
temperature for you to add or remove items. Close the door and touch to restart the
cycle. The machine will display until the end of the cycle is reached then
will be displayed.

WASH AND DRY CYCLE OPTIONS
Keylock
This option enables you to deactivate the buttons on the display panel, except for the
‘POWER’ and ‘Keylock’ buttons. This prevents accidental button presses.
To turn ‘Keylock’ mode ON or OFF when the washer dryer is powered on:
Touch and hold the button for 2 seconds.
Note: when activated, the light above the button is illuminated.
If ‘Keylock’ mode is activated and the machine is powered off:
To turn your washer dryer on, press the ‘POWER’ button, then touch and hold the
button for twoseconds. Select your wash cycle, options and then touch to start
thecycle.
To turn the washer dryer off at anytime when ‘Keylock’ is activated simply press the
‘POWER’ button.
Delay Start
The ‘Delay Start’ option enables you to delay the start of the wash cycle from between
5minutes and 12hours. Times you can select are 5min, 15min, 30min, 1hour, then
hourly up to 12hours. This can be useful to time your washing or drying to finish when
you arrive home from work, or to start once you have finished in the shower. Some
stain removers also require you to spray them on then leave for several minutes before
washing. Your washer dryer will wait for the selected time then start without you having
to wait or remember to start your machine.
To programme a ‘Delay Start’ time, simply touch the ‘More’ button to increase the
delay time and ‘Less’ button to decrease the time or turn ‘Delay Start’ off. Touch
to confirm your selection and start the countdown. Once started, the time will count
down on the digital display screen in 1 minute increments, the ‘Delay Start’ light will
flash and the light will stop flashing and turn on solid.
Note: if you hold the ‘More’ button down, the time displayed on the screen will increase
after every half a second (more convenient than touching the button repetitively). To
remove a ‘Delay Start’ time once it is counting down, simply touch , then touch the
‘Less’ button to decrease the time to zero. Touch to start the cycle immediately.
We suggest that you avoid using ‘Delay Start’ for damp, non-colourfast items as this
may cause dye run to occur.
Note: for the ‘Time Dry’ cycle the ‘Delay Start’ and buttons are used to increase
and decrease the time for a ‘Time Dry’ cycle. The delay start functionality cannot be
used on a ‘Time Dry’ cycle.

condensation, lint and foreign matter.
Turn off the taps to prevent the chance of flooding should a hose burst.
Cleaning your washer dryer
Before you start cleaning your washer dryer, ensure that it is disconnected from the
power (ieunplug the machine from the power socket).
Cleaning the control panel and outer surfaces of the washer dryer
Use a soft damp cloth to wipe all surfaces, then wipe dry. Avoid using chemical or scouring
cleaners, as these will damage the paint and plastic surfaces of your washer dryer.
Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer
Wipe out the detergent dispenser drawer with a damp cloth. Clean it regularly, especially
if you use fabric softener. To remove the drawer, pull it open, push down on the tab in the
fabric softener compartment and pull out. Rinse it out under warm water and replace.
Removing the dispenser drawer for cleaning
Cleaning the inside of your washer dryer
It is important that you regularly clean the inside of your machine
using the ‘Drum Clean’ cycle. After 100cycles the icon will flash
every time you turn your washer dryer on to remind you to do this.
If your washer dryer starts to smell this is a sign that you should
complete a ‘Drum Clean’ cycle. We recommend that you do not
‘Drum Clean’ cycle
have any items in the washer dryer when you run this cycle.
Cleaning steps
Add approximately 2 full scoops of a good quality powdered detergent directly into
1
the main wash detergent compartment of the dispenser drawer (marked ) or use a
drum cleaning product specifically designed for front loading washing machines (follow
manufacturer’s instructions).
Press ‘POWER’ to turn your machine on and select the ‘DrumClean’ cycle.
2
Touch to start the cycle (refer to the ‘Wash and dry cycles’ section).

Cleaning the drum and the door
Use a soft damp cloth to wipe the door, cleaning any water marks or residue off it.
Wipe the rubber seal around the door. Remove any items or lint accumulating in the
bottom of the seal catchment and wipe out any water accumulated here. If this is not
cleaned out, unpleasant odours will develop.
If the drum has any residual dirt or lint stuck to it, remove this and wipe the drum clean.
Do not leave any metal objects in the drum as these may rust and cause staining.
WD8560F1 has a self cleaning door flush that directs a portion of the rinse water over
the door during various stages of the cycle to help to clean hair and insolubles from the
inside of the door and surrounding parts. We still recommend that you manually clean it
with a soft cloth periodically as per the instructions above.
Cleaning the pump filter
The pump has a filter to trap foreign objects that enter the
washer dryer along with clothing. The pump filter can be
accessed from the front of the washer dryer.
To clean the filter:
This should be cleaned out approximately once a month.
Turn the power off and unplug the machine.
1
Use a coin to open the filter cover. Place the edge of the coin
2
into the slot and tilt upwards whilst levering the cover open.
Unhook the pump outlet hose and pull it out (about
3
150mm). Remove the plug and allow any water
(approximately 250ml) to drain into a shallow dish.
After the draining process is complete, replace the plug into
4
the hose and refit the hose back into the housing.
Remove the filter by turning anti-clockwise. Clean and rinse
5
under a tap.
Replace the filter by turning clockwise until the white mark

on the filter is in line with the white line on the pump housing.
Make sure the propeller is freely moving at the back of the

CARING FOR YOUR WASHER DRYER
Cleaning the hose
The hose has a filter in it, preventing any solid contaminants in the water entering your
washer dryer. Occasionally you should disconnect the water inlet hose where it connects
to the taps, check for any build up of dirt and wash this out.
Nappy sanitisers/bleach
Nappy sanitisers and bleach are very corrosive to metal surfaces. DO NOT tip the
contents of a nappy bucket into your machine. Rinse and wring items out thoroughly
before placing them in the machine.
Moving your washer dryer
If you need to move your washer dryer a considerable distance (eg moving house),
remember to replace the transit bolts before moving it. These will protect internal
components of the washer dryer from damage.
To replace the transit bolts, pull out the bolt-hole covers at the back of the machine.
Push the transit bolt rubber grommets and plastic spaces into the hole left and tighten
it with the spanner provided with the product.
Make sure any water in the washer dryer is drained out. This can be done by cleaning
out the pump filter (refer to ‘Caring for your washer dryer’ section ‘Cleaning the pump
filter’).
IMPORTANT!
Leave the door to your washer dryer open when it is not in use to allow the washer
dryer to dry out, otherwise it will develop unpleasant odours. When leaving the door
open like this, it is extremely important that children and pets are kept away from the
washer dryer so they cannot be accidentally trapped inside it.
Aside from the detergent dispenser, water hose, and the pump filter, no other parts
are designed to be removed from the machine for cleaning. Do not attempt to remove
any other part of the machine.

After washing particularly dirty clothing,
we recommend putting the washer
dryer through a ‘Rinse’ cycle after the
load has been removed, to wash away
any remnants of dirt and to prevent it
contaminating future wash or dry cycles.
Select a wash temperature suitable for
the type of soil, eg warm for greasy soils,
cold for muddy soils. Increasing the wash
temperature generally improves soil
removal and overall wash performance.
Particularly short or delicate cycles have
shorter spins which can result in wetter
washing at the end of the cycle.
Select a faster spin speed.
The washer dryer compensates for the
out of balance by using a lower spin
speed, to reduce noise and potential
damage to itself.
