Variable spin speed
This is only available on Models WMA48, WMA46 and
WMM39
Use this control to reduce the programme spin speed only.
If you leave this in the maximum position (WMA48 1400,
WMA46 1300 or WMM39 1400), the spin will be the
maximum which is appropriate for whatever wash
programme you have chosen.
When the wash has finished return the dial to the original
setting.
Note: You cannot alter the spin speed while the machine
is spinning.
Variable temperature
This is only available on Model WMA48, WMA44 and
WMM39
Use this control to reduce the wash temperature only.
If you leave this in the maximum position (95), the actual
wash temperature will be the maximum which is
appropriate for the wash programme which you have
chosen.
When the wash has finished return the dial to the original
setting.
Note: You cannot alter the temperature while the
machine is washing.
Automatic Features
Auto half load
Auto half load saves you time and money when washing smaller loads.
Water levels are automatically adjusted to cater for the different loads.
Unbalanced load warning
Your machine has an inbuilt feature to prevent it spinning with an unbalanced load. This will
minimise excessive vibration and prolong the life of the machine.
Before each spin the machine ‘senses’ the load within the drum and if the machine considers
the load to be unbalanced, it will not automatically spin. Instead the machine will try to
redistribute the load to achieve balance by tumbling backwards and forwards. If it is unable
to balance the load after the fifth attempt the machine will abort the spin process.
As an indicator to you that this has happened the ‘Final Spin indicator light will flash to
advise that no spin has been performed.
If this safety feature is encountered you can spin the load after first opening the door,
redistributing the load and reselecting a fast or slow spin programme. In the case of small
loads or single items you may try adding some extra items of a comparable size to help
balance the load.
