Take the washing machine out from the cardboard box and put it on a
flat and sturdy floor. Don’t place the washing machine on an incline,
non-flat, on the carpet, or on the wooden floor. Don’t place the washing
machine outdoor and avoid a humid place that can cause damage.
1. Removing transit bolts
-Remove all the transit bolts
at the back of the machine
with tools.
-Plug the holes with the
transit bolts caps supplied.
-Keep the transit bolts for
future transportation.
Whenever the machine is
transported, the transot
bolts must be refitted.
PART 3: INSTALLATION

2. Installation place requirement
- A concrete floor is the most suitable
installation surface for a washing
machine, being far less prone to
vibration during the spin cycle than
wooden floorboards or a carpeted
surface.
- The machine must be level and securely
positioned. The distance between the
machine and wall must be more than 10
cm.
- To avoid vibrations during spinning, the
machine should not be installed on soft
floor coverings.
3. 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.
Do these when the machine is not level:
•Using the spanner turn locknut in a
clockwise direction. Then turn
locknuts together with adjust feet to
unscrew.
•Use a spirit level to check the
machine is standing level.
•Hold adjusts feet securely with a
pipe wrench. Turn locknut again
using the spanner until it slits firmly
up against the housing.

4. Drain hose connection
1. Direct into sink
If the outlet spigot has not been used
before, remove any blanking plug that
may be in place. Push the drain hose
onto spigot and secure clip if
required, ensure a loop is formed in
the drain hose to prevent waste from
the sink entering the washing
machine. 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 “U” piece supplied.
Place the drain hose into your
standpipe, which should have an
internal diameter of approximately 38
mm thus ensuring there is an air break
between the drain hose and
standpipe.
5. Water inlet connection
Connect the inlet hose supplied with the machine to a tap with a 3/4" thread.
Do not use previous employed hoses. Installation should comply with local
water authority and building regulations requirements.
When there is an inlet valve at the back of the machine, it must be connected to a
cold-water supply. If there are two inlet valves, one is connected to a cold-water

13
supply and the other is connected to a hot water supply. Follow the indication of
the picture below to complete the connection.

Before washing clothes for the first time, you must run a complete cycle
without clothes do these:
1. Connect the power and turn on the tap.
2. Press the “Power” button, then turn the knob to position “Anti-

Washing Preparation
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 well.
Clothes Preparation
1. Sort the laundry by color 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 coloreds separately.
5. Badly soiled areas, stains etc. should be pre-treated with liquid
detergent, stain removers etc.
6. Turn over the clothes which pill easily and is with woolen surface
before putting them into the machine.
PART 5: HOW TO USE

15
Put Clothes into The Washer
Unfold the laundry and load loosely in the drum. Mixing both large
and small items give better wash results and also 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 as this causes creases and reduces cleaning efficiency.
Using The Detergent 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.
3.
Close the drawer.
The right amount to dispenser will depend on the following:
•
The quantity of laundry
•
The soiling level of the laundry
-
Lightly soiled
No visible dirt or stains.
Possibly slight body odor.
-
Normally soiled.
Visibly dirty and/or just a few
slight stains.
-
Heavily soiled.
Visible dirt and stains and/or
dried on soiling.
•
The water hardness level.
It is recommended to use low foaming powder for all washing
temperature programs.

Fabric softener compartment
Pre-wash compartment

Door Lock
•When the machine is started, the door lock is locked though you press the
“Start/Pause “button. the door lock is unlocked in two minutes.
•When the temperature inside the drum is above 60℃, the door lock is locked.
•When the water is above a certain level, the door lock is locked.
•When the washing cycle is finished, the door lock is unlocked after two
minutes.
IMPORTANT
The machine is fitted with a balance control device, which ensures the
machine is stable during the spin. To protect the machine, it will cut in
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, redistributed the load
manually and reselect the spin program.
IMPORTANT
Do not try to open the door when the washing cycle is not finished or
power supply is cut off during the washing cycle, because the
temperature may be high, and you may be scalded.

Cleaning The Drawer Housing
Use a bottle to brush to remove detergent
residues inside the drawer housing
Cleaning The Water Inlet Filter
Use pointed nose pliers to withdraw the
plastic filter. Clean, put back secure. These
filters should be checked every 6 months or
so, or more often if there are frequent
interruptions to the water supply.
