ABOUT YOUR WASHING MACHINE

Out of Balance Interruption

The out of balance has 2 level which are low
level and high level.

The high level: Machine will be stopped,
caused by an uneven distribution of clothes in
the wash bowl. To rectify the out of balance
condition, open the lid and redistribute the
clothes evenly in the wash bowl. Closing the
spin stage of the wash.

The low level: The washing machine try to
optimize by reduce spin speed to avoid out of
balance to finish the cycle.

If you have frequent out of balance
interruptions, it may be due to your
washing machine not standing firm and level
on the floor. This can be corrected by adjust
the washing machine legs as described
in the Installation Instructions supplied with
your machines.

Touchpad Response and Lights

Always press touchpads gently.

Watch the lights on the control panel to see
the effect pressing a touchpad or turning a
program selector knob has, and listen for
“BEEPS”.

When you press a touchpad you will get a
short “BEEP” to acknowledge the entry.
If the option is not available at the time, the
machine will not allow you to select it. After
the machine has started, the entire wash
option touchpad will be disabled and machine
will give three short beeps to indicate the
touchpad is disabled. The Star/Pause To
Pause touchpad is still active but you need
to press and hold the touchpad for

minimum 1.2 seconds to pause machine.

This is to confirm that you really want to pause
the machine.

NOTE: All functions of the washing machine

will stop when the lid is open.

This product features the new ActiveBoost
Wash System that uses less amount of water,
and is more energy efficient,during the washing
process. It achieves this with just the right
amount of water needed, and by a detergent
pre-mixing system that minimizes detergent
residue even during cold wash to give you a
cleaner wash result.

Wash Operation

Water at 35 C is combined with detergent

o

to dissolve and activate it. Depending on
model, this concentrated solution is then
circulated or showered over the clothes in
combination with unique bowl and agitator
rotations to provide wash action at the selected
wash temperature.

Agitation

After the wash operation is completed, the
bowl is filled with more water. The low profile
agitator or agitator then moves in an energy
efficient mode, generating additional
mechanical actions.

Auto Water Level Feature

Your washing machine has selectable
“Auto” sensing water level option as well
as allowing you to choose a manual
water level if you wish. We recommend
you to use the Auto water level option to
ensure there is just the right amount of
water for the wash load in the machine.
In other words, it will usually give you the
best wash while also being the most
efficient in terms of water usage.

SAVING WATER AND ENERGY

This washing machine features water and

energy saving options.

To save energy, the wash time can be shortened
for a load of less dirty clothes by selecting the
appropriate wash program e.g. Fast Wash.
The washing machine is energy efficient and most
water efficient when used with a full load of clothes
and with Eco Rinse selected. You should use
Eco Rinse (where available) instead of Deep Rinse
to reduce the amount of water used for
rinsing clothes.

Your machine is most water efficient when

Eco Rinse is used as the rinse option.

Each time you switch on your washing machine the
machine will select most suitable rinse option for
the selected program. You can change rinse option
if you wish. The difference between Deep rinse and
Eco rinse is explained on the page 13.

POWER FAILURE RECOVERY

When there is power failure while
machine is washing or rinsing or
spinning. The machine tries to save
the settings at which stage the
machine is doing and then when
the power returns back the machine
will starts washing from the stage
where it is left off.
