Washcare Tips:
Indicator Lights:
Do not overload the machine
(maximum load 5.5kg).
In addition to reducing the
quality of the wash,this may also
damage your laundry and the
machine.
We strongly recommend that you
do not wash underwired bras in
this machine. Should the wires
become detached it could cause
damage to your clothes and the
machine. If the washcare label
states that the bra is machine
washable,then we advise placing
it in a sealed pillow case or a
similar washbag.Remember, you
will be charged for a service call
resulting from a detached bra
wire.
Do not use the machine if the
item to be washed does not have
a wash label.
Before washing laundry we
recommend that you do the
following:
Pre-treat awkward stains with
washable treatments.
Do not wash any items that have
previously been treated with
solvents.
Close zips,fasten belts,tie strings
and close press studs to prevent
tangling.
Empty ALL objects from pockets
as they may damage the clothes
and the machine.
Remember, you will be charged
for a service call to rectify a
malfunction resulting from
objects, such as coins, pens, hair
grips etc.falling from pockets.
Limit the size of absorbent loads
ie.towels,to 3kg (7lb) to give
good washing and rinsing results.
Place small items in a wash bag.
Always follow the care label on
items when choosing the wash
programme.
Wash non-colourfast items or
really dirty laundry separately as
they may affect other items.
Are the fill hoses on correctly?
If the ‘Door Locked’indicator light is flashing:
Shut the door firmly,until it clicks.
The ‘Door Locked’indicator light should now stay on.
If the door will not open...Check the programme has
finished,is the ‘Prog End’indicator light lit? It takes
about two minutes for the ‘Door Locked’indicator
light to go out after a programme has finished.
The door will not open until the ‘Door Locked’
indicator light has gone out.
The ‘Active’ and ‘Prog End’indicator lights
are both flashing...
This means that the machine cannot fill.
Check that the water supply is turned on and that the
inlet hoses are not kinked.
The ‘Active’indicator light is flashing...
If the ‘Active’indicator light is flashing:
This means that the programme selector dial has been
moved since the programme started.
Return the dial to the original selection.
STEP 8
Remember, you will be charged for a service call for problems caused by incorrect installation, non-removal of transit bolts or packaging, leaks from household pipework, loose or blocked fill and drain hoses.
Washing items that DO NOT have a wash label or washing items that are not intended as machine washable and NOT emptying contents from pockets may cause pump or drain blockages, or may damage components within the machine.
