Your safety is important to us.
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury when using your machine adhere to the
following basic precautions.
Understanding your responsibilities
• Do not use chlorine bleach and ammonia or acid(such as vinegar or rust remover) in the same
wash. Hazardous fumes can form.
• Unplug power supply cord before attempting to service your machine.
• Do not wash fibreglass material.
Small particles can stick to fabrics washed in subsequent loads and cause skin irritation.
• Do not spray water on the control panel of the washer.
It could cause fire or an electric shock.
• In case of the dual valve model, with only the cold water inlet valve, connected and the water
temperature selected as hot or warm, there may be water leakage from unconnected water inlet
valve.
• This appliance must be earthed.
• Flammable fluids (dry-cleaning solvents, etc)
should not be used or stored in or near your
machine.
Do not add flammable fluids to your wash.
These substances give off vapours that can
create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Do not attempt to open the machine door
after a cycle has started.
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• The appliance is not intended for use by
young children or without supervision.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, or its service
agent or a similarly qualified person in order
to avoid a hazard.
• If the appliance is connected to the power
supply via an extension lead, it should not
be positioned where it could be splashed by,
or susceptible to, water.
Please ...
• Have only a qualified person install, repair,
or replace parts on washer.
• Ensure your washing machine is regularly
maintained/serviced.
• Position your washing machine where it will
be protected from the weather and keep
it where the temperature will not fall below
freezing.
• Do not install your machine at a place of
extremely high humidity. It could cause an
electric shock or a short circuit.
• Your washing machine must be connected to
the correct outlet, electrical supply, water
supply, and drain supply.

adjustable leg
Fixing Nut
NOTE
There should be no instability of the machine when
all the adjustable legs have been correctly balanced.
To obtain the best washing results, you must operate your machine properly.
This section gives you this important information.
• Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to avoid
snagging other items.
Remove pin, buckles, and other hard
objects to avoid scratching the machine
interior.
• Empty pockets and pull them inside out.
• Turn down cuffs and turn synthetic garments
inside out to avoid damaging the fibres.
• Tie strings and sashes to avoid tangling.
• Treat spots and stains.
(See “Removing stains” on page 21)
Preparing clothes for washing

8
• For best cleaning and wrinkle-free results, put clothes
into the machine loosely so that they move easily in
the water.
• Load machine properly and select correct load size
setting.
Overloading and selecting a setting too small for the
wash load can :
- Cause poor cleaning
- Increase wrinkling
- Create excessive lint
- Wear out items faster (because of damage to fibres)
• Mix large and small items in each load. Load evenly to
maintain washer balance.
An unbalanced load can make the washer vibrate
during spin.
• Reduce wash time when using a small load size
setting. Loads with only a few small items needs less
wash time.
• Use a large load size setting to reduce wrinkling with
permanent press clothes and some synthetic
garments. These items should have more room to
move in the water than heavy items. (towels, jeans)
Loading
1Detergent compartment 2Adding fabric softener
• If desired, pour liquid fabric softener into the
dispenser using the amount recommended
by the manufacturers.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the
fabric softener which could stain clothes.
• Do not open the detergent case when water
is supplied.
• Avoid pouring fabric softener directly on the
clothes.
3Please use only the powder detergent for the front loader washing machine.
• Please use the proper amount of detergent in conformity with the instruction of the detergent
manufacturer.
• A use of a large amount of detergent more than the recommended amount can cause many
soapsuds and the overload to the motor. In addition to, this will deteriorate the washing and rinse
performance.
Adding detergent
• Separate heavily soiled items from lightly soiled ones, even if they would normally be washed together.
• Separate dark colours from light colours, colourfast items from non-colourfast items.
Sorting
Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Separate clothes according to amount of soil.
Colour (White, Lights, Darks) Separate white clothes from coloured clothes.
Lint (Lint producers, Collectors) Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately.

If you are on vacation or your machine is not being used for an extended period of time, you
should:
• Unplug the power supply cord or turn off eletrical power to the washer.
• Disconnect the water supply.
This helps avoid accidental flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you are away.
Wipe up detergent, bleach, and other spills with
a soft, damp cloth or sponge as they occur.
Occasionally wipe the outside of the washer to
keep its it looking like new.
Clean interior with 250ml of chlorine bleach
mixed with 500ml of detergent.
Run washer through a complete cycle.
Repeat this process if necessary.
Exterior Interior
• Disconnect from mains.
• Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.
• Run the washing machine on a drain and
spin setting (see page 10) for 1 minute.
• Unplug the power supply cord.
• Flush water pipes and hoses.
• Reconnect water inlet hoses.
• Reconnect to water supply.
• Reconnect power supply cord.
To winterize washer To use washer again
Check all pockets for sharp or metal objects eg. keys,
pins, clips, money, etc. as they may damage the interior of
your machine.
If any such items are found please do not rest/leave them
on top of the machine.

HOW TO CLEAN THE FILTER
Cleaning the water inlet filter
• Clean the filter when water leaks from the water inlet.
Cleaning the drain filter
• This drain filter is used to screen foreign bodies such as threads, coins, pins, buttons etc..
• If the drain filter is not cleaned regularly (after every ten washes), drainage problems could arise.
CAUTION : Be careful when draining if the water is hot.
Cleaning the detergent case

and by pulling it out.
- To facilitate cleaning, the upper part of the fabric softener compartment can be removed.
*Detergent can also accumulate inside the recess which should be
cleaned occasionally with a brush.
*Once you have finished cleaning, replace the case and run a rinse
cycle without laundry.
