4.1 Loading Laundry

4.2 Spin Cycle Operation

  1. Ensure the protective lock has been removed (refer to Section 3.2).
  2. Place the washed, wet clothes evenly into the stainless steel drum. Distribute the load to ensure balance and prevent excessive vibration.
  3. Place the provided spin disc on top of the clothes inside the drum.
  4. Close the lid securely. The machine will not operate if the lid is not properly closed due to the safety switch.
  5. Turn on the spin switch. The powerful 2800 RPM motor will begin to spin, creating centrifugal force to remove water.
  6. The spin cycle typically takes 2-3 minutes to achieve up to 95% drainage. The machine is equipped with a 5-minute timer and will automatically stop after this duration.
  7. Position the 1.5L drainage bowl under the drainage spout to collect the expelled water.
  8. Once the cycle is complete and the drum has stopped spinning, open the lid and remove the clothes. The clothes will be almost dry, significantly reducing subsequent drying time.
