ADDING DETERGENT INTO MACHINE)
The amount of detergent you will put in your machine will depend on the following criteria:

  • Your detergent utilization will be based on the degree of contamination of your laundry. Do not prewash your less stained laundry and put your slight amount of detergent in the 2nd compartment of the detergent drawer.
  • For your much stained laundry, select a programme including prewashing, and put ¼ of the detergent you will put in the detergent drawer in the 1st compartment of the detergent drawer while putting the remaining ¾ of it into 2nd compartment.

BUSH WMT0812EB Washing Machine - Fig 18

  • Use detergents produced for automatic washing machine in your machine. The amount of detergent you will use for your laundry is printed on the detergent package.
  • The higher the degree of hardness of the water the more detergent you will use.
  • The amount of the detergent you will use will increase as the amount of your laundry increase.
  • Put the softener in the softener compartment in the detergent drawer. Do not exceed the MAX level. Otherwise, softener will flow into washing water through flushing.
  • Softeners with high density are required to be thinned to a degree before being put in the drawer. Because high-density softener will clog the flush and avoid the flow of the softener.
  • You can use your liquid detergents in all programmes without prewashing. For this, fit liquid detergent level plate in the accessories bag or the liquid detergent apparatus () into 2nd compartment of the detergent drawer and set the amount of liquid  detergent according to the levels on this plate. Remember to detach the liquid detergent plate.

Care and maintenance

Looking after your appliance

Before cleaning your washing machine.
a: Unplug your machine from the mains power supply.
b: Close the water tap.

Water inlet filters
On the tap part of your machine’s water inlet hose and at the ends of water inlet valves, there are filters to prevent entrance of the dirt and foreign materials in the water to the machine. If the machine is unable to receive sufficient water even though your water tap is fully opened, filters should be cleaned.

  • Remove the water inlet hose.
  • Remove the filters found on the water inlet valves by using a pincer and wash thoroughly with a brush. (1)
  • Clean the filters of the water inlet hoses located on the tap side by removing manually together with the seal. (2)
  • After you clean the filters, you can fit them the same way as you have removed them.

Pump filter
The pump filter system elongates the life of your pump, which is used to drain the dirty water. It prevents dirt entering the pump. Cleaning of your pump filter every 2-3 months is recommended. To clean your pump filter:

  • To open the pump cover, you can use the powder detergent spade (*) or liquid detergent level plate coming out of your machine. (1-A & 2-A)
  • Before opening the filter cover, place a cup in front of the filter cover to prevent flow of the remaining water in the machine.
  • Clean the foreign materials in the filter with a brush and flush with clean water. (3-A)
  • Check for the rotation of the pump manually.
  • After cleaning the filter, fit the filter cover and tighten it by rotating it in clockwise direction. (4-A)
  • Remove the foreign materials from the filter.
  • Do not forget that if you do not fit the filter cover properly, it will leak water.
  • While closing the pump cover, ensure that the parts on the inner side of the cover match the holes on the front panel side. (5-A)
  • You can reattach the pump cover in the reverse order that you removed it.

Danger of being scalded! The water inside the pump maybe hot- wait for it to cool.
