Plug the AC power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the voltage matches the machine's requirements (30 Volts, 45 Watts).

4. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for effective use of your washing machine.

4.1 Loading Laundry

1. Open the top lid of the washing machine.

If you encounter issues with your washing machine, refer to the following common problems and solutions.

• Machine does not start:

  • Check if the lid is fully closed. The machine will not operate if the lid is open.
  • Verify that a wash program has been selected and the Start button has been pressed.
• Water not filling:

  • Clean the lint filter (collection box) as it may be clogged.
• Excessive vibration or noise:
  • Ensure the machine is placed on a level and stable surface. Adjust leveling feet if necessary.
  • Verify that the laundry load is balanced inside the tub. Redistribute clothes if they are clumped on one side.
  • Do not overload the machine beyond its 8 lbs capacity.
• Clothes are too wet after spin cycle:
  • Remember that this machine features an air spin dry, which dries clothes to approximately 70%-80%, not 100%.
