Introduction of the major functions

The machine has good comprehensive performance, and nice appearance.

It adopts complete enclosed base frame and low-noise motor, and thus reduces the
working noise significantly. We can guarantee that the purchase of this machine will bring
you a clean world without disturbing your quiet life.

Foam-removing spinning during high-efficiency rinsing

Use the foam-removing spinning to
remove the extra detergent liquid. It can
both shorten the washing time and save
the water consumption.

Spin

Spin for about
1~2 minutes

Fill water for
about 1 minutes

Foam-removing
spinning

Spin for about
1~2 minutes

Remove most of the foam
extra detergent liquid. it can
both shorten the washing
time and save the water
consumption.

Quick water-filling entrance

If you do not need spraying spin, you can
fill water into the wash tub directly through
this entrance. It can reduce the humidity
inside the control panel significantly and
prolong the operating life of the components.

Remove the detergent
liquid remained

The effect is best when the
laundries quantity is below
80% of the rated value.

a. Check if the laundries are applicable for washing with machine.
b. Divide the laundries that are not colorfast from other laundries.
c. Put those laundries difficult to absorb water into water with hand.
d. For those laundries with heavy soil, please first remove the dirt like
mud or dust. For the parts with heavy soil, please apply detergent on
them in advance, which can make it easier to remove the soil.
e. For those laundries that may get lint ball and those with long fur, turn
it over before putting in.
f. Do not put those laundries polluted by chemicals into the washing
machine directly.

Clear the
pocket. Take
out the coins,
sand, hairpins
etc.

Tie the long
strips; fasten
the buttons;
close zippers.

The quantity of
the laundries
shall not be too
large. Stretch
and loosen the
laundries before
putting them in
the tub.

When the pulsator
is running , the
buttons of the
laundries may
cause noise. For
the sake of
discretion, please
put the laundries
with buttons into
other laundries.

The musts in washing

The capacity of washing and spinning of
the machine refer to the largest weight of
the standard laundries under dry condition
that can be washed or spinned in one time.
Laundries quantity in one washing cycle
shall be lower than the rated capacity.

The thickness ,size , type of the cloth will
influence the actual washing capacity. It
is suitable to put in reasonable amount of
laundries and the laundries can be turned
round in washing for one time washing.

Do not select " Maximum " water level
for laundries less than 2.4kg, so as to
avoid splashing of water.

Refer to the user's manual for the usage and quantity of the whitener.
For powder whitener, please dissolve it before using.

How to use the washing powder

Direct dissolved in the machine:

1.Fill small quantity of water.

2.Add the powder . Run for 30 seconds to
