  6. Drain Water: Once the wash cycle is complete, turn the 'Wash Selector' knob to 'OFF' and then position the drain hose to empty the water.

Spin-Drying Cycle

  1. Transfer Clothes: After washing and draining, transfer the wet clothes into the spin basket. Ensure clothes are evenly distributed to prevent imbalance. Do not overload the spin basket.
  2. Place Safety Cover: Securely place the safety cover over the clothes in the spin basket. This is crucial for safe operation.
  3. Hand holding the safety cover for the spin tub

  • Cleaning the Tub: After each use, wipe the inside of the tub with a clean, damp cloth to remove any detergent residue or lint.
  • Exterior Cleaning: Clean the exterior of the machine with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Drain Hose: Ensure the drain hose is clear of blockages. Periodically check for any kinks or damage.
  • Storage: If storing the machine for an extended period, ensure it is completely dry. Disconnect the water inlet and drain hoses, and store them properly. Store the machine in a dry, cool place.
