Getting Started: Basic Operation

Follow these steps for a typical wash cycle:

1. Load Laundry: Open the door and load laundry evenly. Do not exceed the maximum load capacity (8.0 kg for this model). Ensure no foreign objects are left in pockets.
2. Add Detergent: Open the detergent drawer. Add detergent to the main wash compartment (usually marked 'II'). If using fabric softener, add it to the compartment marked with a flower symbol. Add pre-wash detergent to compartment 'I' if using the pre-wash option.
3. Select Program: Turn the program selector dial to choose the appropriate wash cycle for your laundry type.
4. Select Options: Press option buttons to customize settings like temperature, spin speed, or add extra functions like 'Pre Wash' or 'Intensive'.
5. Start Wash: Press the Start/Pause button. The door will lock, and the cycle will begin.
6. End of Cycle: When the cycle is complete, the display will show 'End' or '0'. Wait for the door lock indicator to turn off before opening the door. Remove laundry promptly.

Maintenance and Cleaning ?

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your washing machine.

• Detergent Drawer: Clean the detergent drawer regularly to prevent detergent buildup. Remove the drawer, rinse under running water, and dry before reinserting.
• Door Seal: Wipe the door seal and the inside of the door glass after each wash to remove lint and residue.
• Drum Cleaning: Run a drum cleaning cycle periodically (refer to your specific model's manual for instructions, often a dedicated program or a hot wash with no load) to remove bacteria and odors.
• Exterior: Clean the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth.
• Filter: The drain pump filter should be cleaned regularly (typically every few months) to remove lint and debris. Locate the filter access panel at the bottom front of the machine, carefully drain any residual water, and unscrew the filter. Clean it under running water and reinsert securely. ⚠️ Ensure the machine is unplugged before accessing the filter.
