far less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards or
carpeted surface.
•The machine must be level and securely positioned. The distance between the
machine and wall must be at least 10 cm.
•To avoid vibrations during spinning. the machine should not be installed on soft
floor coverings.
INSTALLATION

Level adjustment
The machine must stand perfectly level on all four feet to ensure safe and proper operation.
Incorrect installation may increase electricity and water consumption and may cause the
machine to move about during operation.
If the machine is not level:
•Using a spanner, turn the locknut in a clockwise direction to loosen. Then turn
locknuts together with adjust feet to unscrew.

Drain hose connection
1. Directly into a sink
If the outlet spigot has not been used before, remove any blanking plug that may be in
place.
Push the drain hose onto the spigot and secure with a clip if required, ensure a loop is
formed in the drain hose to prevent waste from the sink entering the washer-dryer.
If required, the drain hose can be extended to a length of 4 m.
2. Connected securely to a standpipe
Firstly, form a hook in the end of the drain hose using the plastic “U” piece supplied.
Place the drain hose into your standpipe, which should have an internal diameter of
approximately 30mm, thus ensuring there is an air brake between the drain hose and
standpipe.
When discharging into a standpipe, ensure that the top of the standpipe is no more than
90cm and no less than 60cm above floor level.

Connect the power and turn on the tap, turn the knob to position “Daily” and press
“start/pause”.
This will remove any excess water within the unit from final quality control testing and
ensure the product is clean and ready for use.
1. Connect the inlet hoses well and turn on the tap.
2. After making sure the power socket is grounded reliably, insert the power plug into
the power socket.
3. Place the drain hose correctly as per the instructions above.
Preparation of clothes
Diagram 1
Diagram 2
Diagram 3
1. Sort the laundry by colour and by care label. Most garments have a textile care
label in the collar or side seam.
2. Make sure all the pockets are empty, Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins, paper clips
etc.) can cause damage to garments and components in the machine.
3. Close any zips, fasten hooks and eyes etc., before washing.
4. Dark textiles often contain excess dye and should be washed separately several
times before being included in a mixed load. Always wash whites and colours
separately.
5. Badly soiled areas, stains etc. should be pre-treated with liquid detergent or stain
removers before washing.
6. Turn clothes which pill easily or with woolen surfaces inside-out before putting
them into the machine.

Adding clothes to the washer
Unfold the laundry and load loosely in the drum. Mixing both large and small items gives
better wash results and helps distribute the load evenly during spinning. The most efficient
use of energy and water is achieved when a full load is washed. However, do not overload
the machine, as this causes creases and reduces cleaning efficiency.
Adding detergent to the drawer
1. Open the drawer and add adequate detergent into main wash compartment
marked “ ” or “ ”.
2. Add the fabric softener into compartment marked “ ” or “ ”. Do not exceed
the maximum level mark.
Note:
Make sure that no garments are caught between the door and the seal.

3. Add the detergent into the pre-wash compartment marked “ ” or “ ”
according to the program you select.
4. Close the drawer.
The right amount of detergent to add will depend on:
•The quantity of laundry
•The soiling level of the laundry
oLightly soiled: no visible dirt or stains. Possible slight body odour.
oNormally soiled: visibly dirty and/or just a few slight stains.
oHeavily soiled: visible dirt and stains and/or dried on soiling.
•The water hardness level.
Washing steps
1. Turn on the water tap and connect the power.
2. Open the door and put the clothes into the drum one by one.
3. Close the door and put suitable amount of detergent and fabric softener into the
dispenser, then close the drawer.
4. Choose the desired program by turning the knob.
5. Press the “Temp.” button and select a wash temperature.
6. Press “Start/Pause” button to start the washer-dryer.

Note:
•When washing cycle is finished, the machine will change into standby mode and
the power will turn off after 10 minutes without any inputs to the control panel.
•The machine is fitted with a balance control device, which ensures the machine is
stable during the spin. To protect the machine, it will engage if the laundry is not
evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redistributed by reverse rotation of
the drum. This may happen several times before the unbalance disappears and
normal spinning can resume. If, after 15 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly
distributed in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case, redistribute the load
manually and reselect the spin program.
