Saving Tips
Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the recommended maximum
load size
Do not exceed the detergent dosages indicated in the manufacturer’s instructions.
The Eco-Ball –a special system in the outlet- will prevent detergent loss from the drum to avoid
detergent loss into the environment.
Use “Prewash” for heavily soiled laundry only. Save detergent, time, water and energy consumption
by not selecting “Prewash” for slightly too normal soiled laundry.
Save energy and time by selecting a high spin speed to reduce the water content in laundry before
using a tumble dryer.
Choose a proper washing temperature. Modern detergents can wash with very good result already
in lower temperature than 60°C. Only y use higher temperature than 60°C for heavily soiled laundry.

Description
This diagram may be slightly different from the layout of the washing machine you have just purchased.
Unpacking the washing machine
Remove all the packing materials prior to use, including the
polystyrene base. Upon opening the package, water drops may be
seen on the plastic bag and the porthole. This is normal phenomenon
resulting from water tests in the factory.

Installation
Fitting the base cover
Before removing the transportation bolts, please
fix the base cover to the bottom of the washing
machine. Lay down the machine (fig1) screw off
the feet and adjust the base cover with the four
holes corresponding to the screw holes of the
feet. Then screw the feet back on through the
cover and fix it securely to the bottom of the
machine (fig2).
The base keeps out any dampness and reduces
the noise
Removing the transportation bolts
The transportation bolts are designed for clamping,anti-
vibration components inside the washing machine during the
transportation process
Remove the back cover. Fig 1.
Remove the four bolts on the rear side and take out the
synthetic stabilisers from within the machine Fig 2
Replace the back cover. Fig 3.
Fill the holes left by the bolts with blanking plugs. Fig 4.
When replacing the back cover, ensure the convex
surface is facing outwards, and insert the back
cover between the gaps as shown in Fig. 5.
Keep the transportation bolts and synthetic
stabilisers in a safe place for later use
Adjusting the feet
There are adjustable feet under the bottom of the washing machine.
Before use, they should be adjusted so that the machine is level. This will
minimize vibrations and noise during use. It will also reduce wear and tear. We
recommend using a spirit level to level the appliance. The floor should be as
stable and flat as possible.

Before use
Inlet Hose
Connect the nut on the inlet hose to the connector on
the water valve (fig1).
Apply inlet hose to a water tap with cold, fresh water
(fig2).
Use the hose-set supplied with the appliance.
Old hose-sets should not be reused.
Drain Hose
Use the drain hose bracket to keep the end of the drain
hose retained and prevent the outflow of water (fig1). Do
not extend the length of the drain hose; if an extended
hose is required, please consult a serviceman.
The height of the drainage outlet must be 80-100 cm. Fix
the drain hose to the clip at the back of the washing
machine to prevent it from dropping off (fig2).
The drain hose should not be submerged in water and should be securely fixed and leak-
free. If the drain hose is placed on the ground or if the pipe is at a height of less than
80cm, the washing machine will continuously drain while being filled (self-siphoning).
Connecting to the power supply
Before connecting to the power supply, check:
The socket is adequate for the maximum power of the washing
machine (For safety, fuses in the power circuit should be rated
for no less than 10A).
The voltage should meet the requirement.
The power outlet should be capable of accepting the washing
machine plug.
Connect the machine to an earthed socket outlet.
