• Fig 2](https://manuals.plus/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Whirlpool-WWEB8502GW- Drum-Washer-Dryer-Fig-2.png)Removing transport bolts and base protector To protect the washing machine during transport, the internal structure of the washing machine is fastened with four transport bolts. All the transport bolts should be removed before use. (If the bolts are not removed, the washing machine will vibrate vigorously, generate loud noises and function  improperly during spinning.)

  1. Loosen the transport bolts (four pieces) with a wrench.
  2. Shake the bolts left and right to pull them out.
  3. Align the bolt covers with the original bolt holes and press until they fit.
  • Please keep the transport bolts safe. They are necessary to make a move.
  • Do remove the base protector before use, as shown in the figure, or the washing machine will function improperly.

Level adjustment
If installed on an uneven place, the washing machine will generate abnormal noises or vibrations or function abnormally when in use.
The feet of the washing machine (the four feet are all adjustable) can be adjusted by the following method:

1. Loosen clockwise the locking nuts of the washing machine feet with the wrench and rotate the feet to adjust the height so as to make the washing machine level.

2. When allowed by conditions, use a level meter to check the adjusted state of the washing machine and make calibration when necessary.
   Note: all four feet must reliably touch the ground and stand on the ground firmly.

3. Tighten the locking nuts counterclockwise with the wrench to lock the nuts to the bottom of the case.

4. After adjustment, press the diagonal corners of the top cover of the washing machine by a proper force with two hands to confirm that the washing machine is stable.

Choosing water tap
Water tap type: ( The opening of the water tap should be flat.
Type A: most suitable type
Type B: the water tap length must be greater than 16 mm, or the universal joint cannot be installed.
Type C: Water may leak from the position as shown in the figure.
CAUTION:

• Do not connect to a hot water source of over 50°C.
• lf the water tap used is not suitable, replace with a suitable one.
  

Connecting the inlet hose
Note : It is recommended the use of the provided hose.
How to attach the inlet hose

1. Loosen the four screws and slide the top of the inlet hose joint (section A in the figure) onto the faucet. Then, securely tighten the four screws provided with the inlet
   hose joint by using a screwdriver to secure the top of the joint to the faucet.

2. Remove the CAUTION label from the inlet hose joint.

3. Turn the male coupler on the joint (section B in the figure) clockwise to attach it securely to the top of the joint (section Ain the figure).

CAUTION:
If outer diameter of faucet is larger than caliber of the Joint Ring, loosen the four screws and remove the Joint Ring from the inlet hose joint.
Connecting Water Inlet Hose to the Washer
Turn the nut clockwise till the nut is tight while holding the hose.
Turn the nut counterclockwise after turning the faucet off if you want to detach the water inlet hose. Connecting the Drain Hose

1. When the machine is not in use, put the drain hose at the back of machine (figure 1).

2. When in operation, install the drain hose into drainage duct (figure 2); you can also put end of drain hose into sewer, leaving space between end of drain hose and sewer
   elbow to avoid difficulty in draining water out of washing machine.

3. Clean the filter in the pump periodically to keep the wash machine working normally.

Note: Do not take off the drain hose to avoid drainage problems.

HINTS AND TIPS

RULES FOR SEPARATING LAUNDRY

• Fabric type / indications on label (cotton, mixed fibres, synthetic, wool, handwash items)
• Colour (separate coloured garments from whites, wash  new coloured items separately)
• Size (wash items of different sizes in the same load to prove washing efficacy and weight distribution in the rum
• Delicates (place small items — such as nylon stockings – and garments with clasps – such as braziers – in a laundry bag or ina pillow case with a zip).

WASH SYMBOLS ON GARMENT LABELS
The value given in the tub symbol is the maximum temperature possible for washing the garment.
Normal mechanical action
Reduced mechanical action
Much reduced mechanical action
Hand wash only
Do not wash
CLEAN THE WATER FILTER REGULARLY

• This is needed to prevent the filter from blocking and preventing the water from draining correctly.

SAVING ENERGY AND PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

• Keeping within the load limits indicated in the “PROGRAMME CHART’ will optimise energy, water and detergent consumption and reduce washing times.
• Donot exceed the detergent quantities recommended by the detergent manufacturer.
• Save energy by using a 60 °C instead of a 90 °C wash programme, or by using a 40 °C instead of a 60 °C wash programme, We recommend using “Eco Cotton” programme, which is longer, but uses less energy,
• To save energy and time when washing, select highest spin speed available for the programme to reduce the residual water remaining in the garments at the end of the wash cycle.
• Pretreat any stains with an appropriate stain remover, or else dampen any dried-on stains with water prior to washing, as this will reduce the need to use a high temperature watch programme.
• Wash &dry 60′ programme applicable to quick washing and drying of a few clothes with few stains.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

For any cleaning and maintenance, switch off and unplug the washing machine.
Do not use flammable fluids to clean the washing machine.
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE WASHING MACHINE

Do not use glass or general purpose cleaners, scouring machine. powder or similar to clean the control panel — these substances might damage the printing.
CHECKING THE WATER SUPPLY HOSE
Check the inlet hose regularly for brittleness and cracks. If damaged, replace it by a new hose available through our After-Sales Service or your specialist dealer.
Depending on the hose type:
If the inlet hose has a transparent coating, periodically check if the colour intensifies locally. If yes, the hose may have a leak and should be replaced.
CLEANING THE MESH FILTERS IN THE WATER SUPPLY HOSE

1. Close water tap and unscrew the inlet hose.

2. Clean the mesh filter at the hose’s end carefully with a fine brush.

3. Now unscrew the inlet hose on the back of the washing machine by hand. Pull out the mesh filter from the valve on the back of the washing machine with pliers and carefully clean it.

4. Insert the mesh filter again. Connect the inlet hose to water tap and washing machine again. Do not use a tool to connect the inlet hose. Open the water tap and check that all connections are tight.
   

CLEANING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER

1. Remove the detergent dispenser by pressing on the release button and at the same time pulling out the detergent dispenser.

2. Remove the insert from the softener compartment.

3. Clean all parts under running water, removing all detergent or softener residues.
   

4. Wipe the parts dry with a soft cloth.

5. Reinstall the detergent dispenser and push it back into the detergent compartment.

CLEANING THE WATER FILTER / DRAINING RESIDUAL WATER
Switch off and unplug the washing machine before cleaning the water filter or draining residual water. If you used a hot wash programme, wait until the water has cooled down before draining any water.
Clean the water filter regularly, to avoid that the water cannot drain after the wash due to obstruction of the filter.
If the water cannot drain, the display indicates that the water filter may be clogged.
Cleaning the drain pump filter / draining residual water

1. Power Off and unplug the washing machine from the electrical outlet.

2. Gently press the top area of the filter cover to open.

3. Place a container close to the pump to collect any spillage.

4. Stretch the “emergency drain hose” to the container.

5. When the container is full with water, plug the stopper to the hose end and empty the container. Repeat this procedure until no more water flows out. Afterwards firmly close the emergency drain hose with the stopper and reinsert the hose in the washing machine’s base.
   

6. Remove filter: Lay a cotton cloth beneath the drain pump filter, which can absorb a small amount of water . Then remove the drain pump filter by turning it out anticlockwise .

7. Clean the drain pump filter: remove residues in the filter and clean it under running water under running water.

8. Insert the drain pump filter: Reinsert the drain pump filter again by turning it in clockwise direction. Make sure to turn it in as far as it goes; the filter handle must be in vertical position . To test water tightness of the drain pump filter, you can pour about 1 liter of water into the detergent dispenser.
