INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Selecting an area for your new Kleenmaid washing machine
To ensure silent and vibration free operation of your machine it should be installed on a non-
sliding and firm base. Do not install your machine on carpet or a surface which would
prevent airflow to its base.
Make sure the area is adequately ventilated and there is sufficient room to open the door
completely.
Disposal of your old machine
Electronic devices and appliances may contain materials which can be hazardous if not
disposed of correctly. Please do not dispose of your old machine with your general
household waste. It should be disposed of at your local waste collection or recycling centre.
Please also ensure it does not present a danger to children whilst being stored for disposal.
Unpacking your new machine
Your machine has been packaged to protect it from any damage that might occur during
transportation. The packaging materials are environmentally friendly and should be recycled.
Plastics wrappings should be disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children. Keep
the small parts found in the document package away from the reach of children and babies.
Some water may be left in your machine after testing conducted during factory quality
Control procedures.
Removing the transportation safety screws
Before operating the washing machine remove the 4
transportation screws and rubber spacers from the back of the
machine (see figure 1). Failure to remove the screws can
cause heavy vibration, noise and product malfunction which
may void the warranty.
The safety screws should be removed by rotating anti-
clockwise with an appropriate sized spanner (see figure 2).
Fully remove the screws (figure 3) and then fit the plastic screw
caps supplied in the accessories bag into the holes from which
the screws have been removed (figure 4).
The transportation safety screws should be stored in case the
machine has to be moved in the future.

Page | 5
Fig 5 Fig 6
Levelling the machine
Your machine must be level and stable at all times in order to operate correctly. It has four
adjustable feet (see figure 5) to ensure this is the case.
The transportation screws must be removed before operating the
machine. Any faults occurring in machines which are operated with the
transportation screws fitted will not be covered by the warranty.
Fig 2 Fig 3 Fig 4

Page | 6
To adjust the height of the feet loosen the plastic locking wheel and rotate the hexagonal
foot in either direction to adjust up or down (figure 6). Once the feet are at the required level
tighten the plastic locking wheel upwards again. Check the machine is level using a spirit
level.
Do not put wood or other materials under your machine to compensate for an uneven floor.
Be careful not to change the set level of the feet when cleaning under the machine or if it
needs to be moved.
Electrical connection
Your washing machine requires a 220-240V and 50 Hz power supply.
The mains cord of your washing machine is fitted with an Australian regulation earthed plug.
This plug should be connected to an earthed 10 amp socket. The maximum current value of
the fuse should be 10 amps.
If you don’t have a socket and fuse complying with this specification, please have one
installed by a qualified electrician. Kleenmaid does not take responsibility for any damages
which occur due to ungrounded usage or incorrect electrical installation.
Water inlet hose connection
To connect the water inlet hose follow the instructions below.
If you are uncertain about these connections, have the work performed by a qualified
plumber.
Your machine requires a water supply with pressure of 0.1-1.0 Mpa. Note, 0.1 Mpa pressure
is equivalent to water flow of 8 litres of water per minute.
Check there are no leaks by opening the water supply tap completely after making the
connections.
Ensure that once connected the new water inlet hose is not bent, broken, crushed or
stretched.
Frozen hoses can tear and explode. In regions where the ambient temperature is below
zero, this might endanger the safe operation of your machine.
Operating your machine using a lower than specified voltage supply will
cause the lifetime and performance of your machine to be reduced.

Page | 7
Your machine has a single cold water inlet.
The white-capped hose should be connected
to a cold water tap and to the inlet only.
To eliminate water leakages a nut is provided
in the hose package. Fit this nut to the end of
the supplied inlet hose and connect to a ¾˝,
threaded water supply tap.
Connect the white elbow end of the water inlet
hose to the white inlet valve on the rear side of
the machine. Tighten all connections by hand.
3/4”3/4”
Use only the new water inlet hose supplied with your machine. Never
use old, used or damaged water inlet hoses.

Page | 8
Fig 7
Water drain connection
The end of the water drain hose can be fitted directly into a dirty water drain hole or
clamped to an outlet joint of the basin drain elbow (figure 7).
Never attempt to extend the water drain hose by jointing or put the drain hose of your
machine in a vessel or bucket.
Make sure that the water drain hose is not bent, buckled,
crushed or stretched.
Please note: The water drain hose should be mounted at a
minimum 60cm and maximum 100cm above the floor.

FEATURES OF YOUR KLEENMAID
WASHING MACHINE
Eco-logic half-load detection system
Your machine features a half-load detection system. If you load laundry which weighs half or
less than the maximum capacity for the selected programme your machine will automatically
reduce the washing time and hence the water and energy consumption [in some
programmes].
Mix and spray system
Your Kleenmaid washing machine has a unique Mix and Spray system. Detergent is mixed
with water in the mixing unit and then injected into the machine and onto the laundry through
two water injection nozzles. This allows far superior washing performance.
Mix and Spray allows you to wash larger amounts of laundry in less time and using less
energy and water.
For better cleaning results with a wider range of fabrics and degrees of staining, Kleenmaid
recommends the use of powder detergents.
Anti-allergenic rinse function
Some programmes allow an anti-allergenic rinse. When this function is selected all rinses
are carried out with hot water, which removes or neutralizes house dust mites, cat & dog

Page | 14
allergens, mould and bacteria. The anti-allergenic function is recommended for laundry worn
on delicate skin, baby clothes and underwear.
Night wash programme
The night wash programme allows the machine to be operated quietly at night time without
any spin stage. When your machine nears the end of the washing operation, it goes into
sleep mode and can keep your laundry for a maximum of 10 hours without draining the
water remaining inside. In the morning the machine can be restarted manually by pressing
the Start/Pause button and it will then complete the programme. If not restarted within 10
hours your machine will automatically complete the programme.
In the sleep mode, the remaining time on the display is the remaining duration of only the
draining and spin operations.
Easy ironing function
The easy iron function means your laundry is less wrinkled at the end of the wash. The
machine does this by using a special combination of water quantity/temperature and drum
motion.

Page | 15
The maximum load capacity may vary based on the type of laundry, the
degree of soiling and the programme you have chosen. Do not exceed
the maximum dry load capacity indicated in the programme table for the
selected programme.
USING YOUR KLEENMAID
WASHING MACHINE
Loading the machine
Take care to wash items according to the specifications and instructions on the product
labels.
Separate your laundry according to material type (eg cotton, synthetic, wool etc.), their wash
temperature (cold, 30°, 40°, 60°, 90°) and degree of soiling (slightly dirty, dirty and very
dirty).
Never wash coloured and white laundry together. Wash new coloured items separately for
their first wash as they may bleed dye into other items. Do not wash flour infused clothes in
your machine as this may cause damage.
Ensure there are no metallic objects in your laundry or in any pockets. Remove the metallic
or plastic hooks of curtains or wash them in a washing net or bag.
Items such as trousers, knitwear, t-shirts and track suits should be turned inside-out. Small
items such as socks and handkerchiefs should be washed in a washing net.
When loading the machine spread the load evenly. Ensure that no items are stuck between
the door and bellow seal when closing the door. Push the door until you hear the locking
sound. If the door is not properly closed the machine will not start.
The following table may be used as a guide to the typical dry weight of different types of
laundry items.

Page | 16
Adding detergent to the machine
Use detergents manufactured for front-load washing machines only and follow the dosing
instructions on the packaging.
The amount of detergent you use will vary depending on the weight of your laundry, the
degree of soiling and the hardness of the water being used.
When using fabric softener or conditioners place them in the softener compartment in the
detergent drawer. Do not exceed the MAX level otherwise it may contaminate the washing
water.
High viscosity softeners should be thinned before being put in the drawer otherwise they
may clog the drawer and prevent the flow of the softener.
Liquid detergents may be used in all programmes. Fit the liquid detergent level plate found in
the accessories bag into compartment II of the detergent drawer and set the amount of liquid
detergent according to the levels on the plate. Remember to remove the liquid detergent
plate when using powder detergents.
Selecting a programme
Select the most suitable programme by referring to the table on page 20.
Once selected the factory preset default parameters, as shown in the table, will be displayed
on the screen. Depending on which programme is selected some or all of these parameters
may be varied manually by pressing the relevant button.
It is recommended that before performing the first wash, the 90˚C Cotton programme should
be run with the machine empty and with a ½dose of detergent in compartment II. This
removes any remnants of manufacturing or transportation.
Selecting an auxiliary function
An auxiliary function may be selected before starting the programme.
Press the button of the function you would like to select. If the symbol is displayed
continuously, the auxiliary function you have selected is activated. If the symbol is blinking,
the auxiliary function you have selected is not available for that programme. See the
programme table for which functions are available for each programme
Delay timer function
The start of the programme may be delayed for between half an hour and 23 hours. To set a
delayed start press the time delay button once. A flashing “0.5h” will appear on the display.
Press the time delay button repeatedly until the desired delay is reached. Press the
Start/Pause button to set the time delay function.
To cancel the Time Delay once set press the time delay button once. The symbol will go off
on the electronic display. Press the “Start/Pause” button to start the machine immediately.

number of additional rinses that have been selected.
Anti-allergenic function
When this function is selected all additional rinses will be performed with hot
water.
To select the anti-allergenic function press the Extra Rinse button until the
anti-allergenic symbol is displayed.
To start the programme
Once the programme has been set with the required settings and any auxiliary
functions have also been selected press the Start button to commence the
wash. The start symbol will appear in the display. To pause the programme at
any stage press the Start/Pause button and the start symbol will flash on the
display.
Child lock
The machine may be locked to avoid unneccesary interuptions through the inadvertent
pressing of buttons or turning of the programme knob.
To activate the child lock press the Easy Ironing button and the Extra Rinse button at the
same time. “CL” will flash on the display when the lock is activated.
To deactivate the child lock, press the same two buttons for more than 5 seconds. The child
lock symbol will no longer be displayed.
