Water levels
Fig.13 Water level guide on agitator
Manual water level selection
The agitator has five levels marked on its stem that
can be used to help you select the correct water
level. Select the correct water level by using the
mark nearest to the top of the load.
The levels marked on the agitator do not correspond
exactly to the level of the water. They indicate the
level of dry clothes suitable for the water level.
Your Smart Drive™ may occasionally add water
during agitation. This is to maintain the water level
due to the release of air trapped in the garments.
The medium/high and medium/low settings are
available on EXCELLENCE model only.
Out of balance loads, tangling or splash-over can be
caused by selecting a water level that is too high.
Auto water level
EXCELLENCE model only
Your Smart Drive™ can automatically select the
appropriate water level for the load.
1
Place your clothes in the machine.
2
Select the wash cycle (select AUTO if not
automatically selected).
3
Press START/PAUSE.
During fill, the machine will pause occasionally to
sense the water level. The machine will check if
the water level is correct by using a series of two
different agitate strokes. A slow stroke to sense the
load and an agitate stroke to mix the load. (This
may take over a minute.) If it detects that the water
level is not high enough, it will fill with more water
and check the level.
When washing an unusual load, eg large bulky
garments or pillows, we recommend you manually
select the water level and select the HAND WASH
cycle (EXCELLENCE model) or the DELICATE cycle
(PRIDE model).
Manually select the water level if there is already
water in the bowl.
Note: if you feel the AUTO water level does not fill to the correct level, you can adjust the level
the machine selects (refer to ‘Changing pre-set options’, pages 22 and 25).
