Changing Pre-set Options
Option Adjustment Mode
After using your washer a number of times you may want to fine tune some of the options to suit your wash needs.
There are a number of pre-set options which can be altered:
1. Changing the COLD wash temperature to CONTROLLED COLD.
2. The out of balance recovery routine.
3. The number of beeps at the end of the cycle.
4. Resetting to factory default settings.
To Enter Option Adjustment Mode
1. Turn machine on at the power outlet but do not touch POWER.
Touch and hold the KEYLOCK and START/PAUSE buttons for 3 seconds.
You will hear 3 quick beeps indicating you have entered Option Adjustment
mode. The machine will show the default setting for the COLD wash
temperature. The diagram on page 33 shows how the wash cycle icons
relate to the options you can change.
2. Use the buttons on the panel to make your changes to the pre-set options.
3. Press POWER to return to normal mode. Your washer will automatically
remember your changes.

Wash Temperature
Controlled Cold
If the temperature of your cold water supply is very low and you choose to do a COLD wash, you will not get an effective
wash. The CONTROLLED COLD option solves this problem by adding a small amount of hot water to raise the
temperature of the wash to approximately 68°F (20°C).
1. Enter Option Adjustment mode (refer to page 32).
2. Select the REGULAR cycle.
3. Select COLD wash temperature by touching the WASH TEMP button (if not already selected).
4. The digital display shows the temperature adjustment possible. The default setting is “tAP”, which is the same
temperature as the incoming water from the cylinder for cold water.
• Touch the MORE button so “0” is displayed. Your washer will now adjust the cold temperature to approximately

68°F (20°C).

If you always use COLD or CONTROLLED COLD water, we recommend that a WARM or
HOT wash be used regularly, eg every 5th wash should be at least a warm one. Warm
water is needed to help maintain the cleanliness of your machine.
Out of Balance Recovery Routine
When your washer is spinning it can sense if the wash load is out of balance. If an out of balance load is detected, the
machine will stop and re-try spinning one more time. If it still senses an unbalanced load there are two options the
machine can take.
Automatic Recovery OFF (the default setting)
Your washer will stop, beep, and show “out-oF-bAL” in three phases on the display screen. You must redistribute the
load more evenly yourself. Use this option if you wish to conserve water.
Automatic Recovery ON
Your washer will try to automatically correct the out of balance load. It will fill with water and agitate to redistribute the
load before trying to spin up again.
To change the out of balance recovery option:
1. Enter Option Adjustment mode (refer to page 32).
2. Select the HEAVY cycle.
3. Touch the MORE
button to turn AUTOMATIC RECOVERY on or off.
