INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION

POSITIONING THE WASHING MACHINE The washing machine can be installed as a builtin (integrated) or a free-standing unit. Place the machine on a level surface so that the power outlet on the wall is accessible.
Before connecting the washing machine to the power mains, wait for at least 2 hours until it reaches room temperature.
The ventilation openings must not be obstructed by a carpet.
If the appliance is installed on a plinth or a similar structure, then the appliance must be fixed to it, to avoid the risk of falling. ASKO original accessories are available for this purpose, complete with fixing instructions.

Free-standing appliance If you have a dryer of suitable dimensions (by another dryer manufacturer), use the vacuum feet to stack it on top of the washing machine, or place it next to it.

Clearances around the washing machine

CONNECTING TO WATER SUPPLY
The machine has to be connected to water supply by an adequately trained person.
Use the water supply hose to connect the appliance. Water pressure has to be between 0.1 and 1 MPa (approximately 1­10 kp/cm2 , 1-10 bar, 10­100 N/ cm2). If the hoses are newly installed, we recommend rinsing them to remove any impurities. Otherwise, these impurities could clog the filter in the water connection on the washing machine and thus cut off the water supply.

CONNECTING TO HOT/COLD WATER SUPPLY (Only available in some models) If your appliance has connections for both hot and cold water, then connect one hose to the cold water connection and the other hose to the hot water connection, as indicated on the back of the appliance: COLD = cold and HOT = hot. Hot water is supplied for programs operating at 40 °C or more.
Hot water connection The hot water temperature must not exceed 70 °C (60 °C in the UK (United Kingdom)).
Connecting to both hot and cold water will save time and electric energy when washing.
If your washing machine model has connections for both hot and cold water, and you only wish to connect cold water, then the protective cap has to be (or remain) attached to the hot water connection.

The water intake hose has to be fastened firmly enough for the hose to have a good seal. After connecting the hose, the seal must be checked for any leaks.
Only use the water supply hose supplied with the appliance. Do not use any used or other hoses.
If the connection on the supply hose is of different dimensions than the water tap (e.g. 3/4″ 1/2″), use an adapter.

12

INSTALLING THE DRAIN HOSE
Upon delivery, the appliance has a drain hose attached. This drain hose must be connected to a drain. Drain hose can also be attached to a wall drain with a trap; such trap should be properly installed to allow cleaning. The height of the drain should be 600­900 mm above the floor. The lower position (600 mm) is always recommended. Make sure the drain hose is not clipped or bent. Use the supplied hose clamp if you connect the drain hose according to option (B).

TIPS BEFORE WASHING

This chapter includes several tips on how to prepare the laundry for washing.
LAUNDRY SORTING Sort the laundry according to: · how soiled it is, · colour, · material.
CLOTHING 1. Close the zips and hook-and-loop fasteners so
that they do not damage the fabric. 2. New dyed items may contain excess dye;
therefore, they have to be washed separately several times. 3. Turn delicate items inside out. This will decrease the risk of tear and colour fading. 4. Place very sensitive clothes and small items in a special-purpose laundry washing bag. 5. Empty the pockets and turn them inside out.

DYED COTTON Laundry made of dyed cotton which is to be washed at 60 °C should be first washed at a temperature of 60 °C to remove the excess dye. If this is not done, there is danger of dye being washed out of such items. To maintain the colour of the fabric, use bleach-free detergent.
UNBLEACHED LINEN Unbleached lining fabric should be washed at 60 °C with a detergent free of bleach or optical bleaching agents. Heavily soiled linen laundry may be occasionally washed at higher temperatures, but do not do this too often as heat could ruin the sheen and strength of linen clothing.
WOOL These fabrics are intended for either machine or hand wash. The Wool/Hand Wash program is equally gentle or even gentler than an actual hand wash. Wool in particular is sensitive to washing and similar procedures. If you do not wish to spin your clothes, select a setting without spinning (see “STEP 6: Choose the program settings /button 3”). However, most garments are suitable for at least a short spinning cycle. Top spinning speed available is 800 rpm.
VISCOSE AND SYNTHETIC FIBRES Materials made of viscose and some synthetic fibres are highly sensitive, and require a lot of space in order not to crease. When washing, only fill the drum to a half and choose a program with spinning speed of no more than 1200 rpm.
Viscose and acetates are fragile when wet.
REDUCING ALLERGIC REACTIONS (Only in some models) The options include washing with the Allergy Program Cotton and Allergy Program Synthetics, using the Allergy Mode program setting, or using an extra rinse (Super Rinse). These programs, program settings, and functions can be used for people with sensitive skin, such as those suffering from allergies, or small children.
SAVING TIME AND ENERGY To save time and energy, use the Normal. This program has shorter main wash cycle than Cotton and often suffices for less soiled laundry.

ECONOMY AND EFFICIENCY You can save a lot of energy by not using the programs operating at higher temperatures. Choose the Quick program if you wish to only refresh the laundry; or use the Time program. This will save water and power. Selecting the maximum spinning speed will reduce power consumption if you dry the clothes in a dryer or a drying cabinet. When using the programs Heavy, Normal and Cotton, we recommend washing a full load. Avoid prewash. Modern washing machines and detergents are efficient without the prewash as well. Prewash is only necessary for heavily soiled laundry. Use the additional function Prewash (see “STEP 6: Program Settings Menu ­ choosing extra functions / button 5”).
DETERGENTS Detergents carrying the environment protection label are less harmful to the environment. Only add the detergents in compliance with the recommendations by detergent manufacturers. Recommended amount of washing detergent at certain loads and water hardness levels are specified on the detergent packaging.
STAINS If your clothes are soiled with stubborn stains (blood, eggs, coffee, grass etc.), they should be appropriately treated before the wash. Then, wash your laundry using the special programs (if your washing machine has them). Do not use any chemical substances or agents; only use the stain removing detergents.
DYEING FABRICS If you wish to dye fabrics in the washing machine, choose the Normal program with the Super Rinse extra function. Choose the temperature according to the dye manufacturer’s recommendations. If you dye mixed fabrics, such as polyester/cotton, choose a low spinning speed.
Add the dye directly into the drum, rather than in the detergent compartment. After dyeing use the Drum Cleaning program (self-cleaning program). Use the standard amount of detergent.
When using bleaches or stain removal agents, there is danger of corrosion and discolouration.
To protect the environment, we advise against using powerful chemicals.

17

WASHING PROCESS, STEP BY STEP (1 ­ 8)
STEP 1: SORT THE LAUNDRY
See chapter “TIPS BEFORE WASHING” Use a washing net for underwire bras. Empty the pockets. Coins, nails etc. could damage the machine
and the fabric.
STEP 2: TURN ON THE MAIN SWITCH.

Turning on Press the on/off button.
Turning off Press the on/off button.
If the machine does not accept the on/off command correctly, wait for at least 8 seconds before pressing any other button.

STEP 3: OPEN THE WASHING MACHINE DOOR AND INSERT THE LAUNDRY.
Open the washing machine door by pulling the handle towards you.

1

2

3

Place the laundry into the washing machine drum. Before doing so, make sure the drum is empty. Do not overload the drum! If the washing machine drum is too full, the laundry will not be washed as thoroughly.
18

STEP 4: ADD THE DETERGENT AND THE CONDITIONER.

Recommended amount of detergent is usually specified on the detergent packaging. When washing a smaller amount of laundry, the amount of detergent used can be decreased. Observe manufacturers’ recommendations regarding the type of detergent suitable for certain temperatures, load size, and water hardness.

Powder detergent Add powder detergent into the main wash detergent compartment. If you have selected the Prewash function or Heavy program, or the Time program with 2:30 or longer duration, then add powder detergent to the prewash detergent compartment.

We recommend adding the powder detergent immediately before the washing cycle. Otherwise, make sure the detergent compartment is completely dry before adding the powder detergent, as otherwise, the powder detergent may cake before the start of the washing process.

Liquid detergent When using a liquid detergent, observe the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations. When using thick detergents, we recommend always using the laundry balls. Use the barrier (3) in the detergent compartment; see figure in the chapter “DETERGENT COMPARTMENT”. Add the liquid detergent in the front part of the detergent compartment (2).

Laundry ball or washing bag If you are using a laundry ball or a washing bag, place it directly into the drum and choose a program without any prewash.

An excessive amount of detergent will not improve washing results. Rather, it will lead to foaming and increase the environmental impact. We recommend using less detergent. Only increase the dosage if you are not satisfied with the washing results.

Conditioner Pour the conditioner into the detergent compartment, into the compartment with the symbol recommendation on the conditioner packaging.

. Observe the

Do not fill the conditioner compartment over the max. indication (maximum indicated level). Otherwise, the conditioner will be added to the washing machine drum too soon, leading to poorer washing effect.

19

STEP 5: CHOOSE THE PROGRAM.
Choose the program by rotating the Program selector knob in either direction.

The Program selector knob can be used when arrows appear on the display. Choose the program depending on the type of laundry and how heavily soiled it is (see chapter “TIPS BEFORE WASHING”).
Estimated program duration will appear on the display.
Extra program settings can also be selected for each program. See STEP 6.

Choose between the following programs:

This program includes 2 cold rinses and a short spinning cycle. The program is suitable for laundry that only needs rinsing, and for cleaning cloths or mops.
Use the program when you only wish to spin the laundry.
If you only wish to pump out the water from the washing machine, choose the Drain program.
This program is used to clean the drum and to remove detergent residues and bacteria. The drum has to be empty. You can add some distilled (spirit) vinegar (approx. 2 dl) or sodium bicarbonate (1 tablespoon, or 15 g). We recommend that you run the programme at least once a month or when the text “Sterile Tube alert” appears in the display. Text “Sterile Tube alert” is displayed every 40 completed wash cycles.
Use the program selector knob to choose System Settings and confirm with ENTER (button 2). Use the Program selector knob to scroll through the settings. The following options are available: ­ Child Lock, ­ Language (language selection), ­ Temperature (temperature unit), ­ Programs (set of programs), ­ Display (display unit: contrast & logo), ­ Sounds (acoustic signals), ­ Reset.
See chapter “SYSTEM SETTINGS”.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE FILTER The washing machine has a filter that will retain smaller objects such as coins, buttons, hair etc.
1 Before cleaning, drain the water from the washing machine using the Drain program, and disconnect the washing machine from the power mains. Open the pump filter cover using appropriate tools (emergency door opening tool is located on the back side of the dispenser).
2 Release the water drain hose from the holder.
Before cleaning the filter, drain the water from the washing machine by placing the end of the water drain hose over a large shallow container and opening the cap on the water drain hose.
3 Gradually rotate the filter in the counter-clockwise direction and pull it out.
4 Clean the filter thoroughly under running water.
5 Remove all objects and impurities from the filter housing and the impeller.
6 Replace the filter as shown in the figure and fasten it by rotating in the clockwise direction. For a good seal, the filter seal surface should be clean. Also re-install the drain hose.

compartment (A). Clean any residue from the cap and

tube.

Clean the detergent compartment (B) interior. Replace the cap on the plug.
3 Use a brush to clean the nozzles on the upper side of the detergent compartment housing.

After a washing program, nozzles that clean the interior of the dispenser are automatically switched on (only available in some models).
Use a brush to clean the lower part of the detergent compartment housing.
4 Replace the detergent compartment into its housing.

Close the detergent compartment!
Do not wash the detergent compartment in the dishwasher!
5 After every wash, wipe the rubber door seal to extend its useful life.

35

CLEANING THE APPLIANCE EXTERIOR Clean the appliance exterior and the display unit using a soft damp cotton cloth and water. Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners that could damage the appliance (please observe the recommendations and warnings provided by the manufacturers of the cleaning agents).
Do not clean the washing machine with a jet of water!
Always disconnect the washing machine from the power mains before cleaning. CLEANING THE WASHING MACHINE INTERIOR AGAINST ODOURS Modern detergents often allow washing clothes at low temperatures. This means that residue may accumulate in the washing machine, which in turn could cause odours. To avoid such odorous, we recommend running the self-cleaning program (Drum-cleaning) once per month. The drum has to be empty.
36

CLEANING THE RINSING HOLES (UNDER THE AGITATOR IN THE DRUM) If you believe that objects like nails or paper clips fell into the washing machine drum, check the area underneath the agitator. Such objects may rust (corrode) and cause stains on your clothes. Nails and other sharp objects can also cause holes in the fabric. Proceed as follows:
1 Insert a screwdriver or a similar tool into the slot in the rib and carefully push it to the left.
2 Hold the rib with the other hand and pull it towards you.
3 Lift the drum rib. 4 Remove any objects. 5 Place the rib into the installation slot indicated with
“F” towards you. Make sure all ribs are firmly in place in their respective slots in the drum. Push the rib inwards (as indicated by the arrow in the figure) until it snaps.
If you are using hard water If you are washing with hard water (causing limescale build-up), a greyish-white film may appear on the washing machine drum. To remove this film, add vinegar (approximately 2 dl or sodium bicarbonate “baking soda” (1 tablespoon or 15 g)) into the washing machine drum and select any program with a temperature of 90 °C, or the Drum Cleaning program. See STEP 5: Choose the program. Repeat the process as necessary.
37

DRAIN SYSTEM ALERT

Alert about reduced water flow in the pumping stage. Please check user manuals.

** UI = (User Interface)

Unevenly distributed laundry or lumps of laundry in the washing machine drum may cause problems such as vibration and noisy operation. The washing machine will sense this and activate the UKS (unbalance system). Smaller loads (e.g. one towel, one sweater, one bathrobe etc.) or clothes made of materials with special geometrical properties are virtually impossible to distribute evenly across the washing machine drum (slippers, large items etc.). This results in several attempts to redistribute the laundry, which in turn leads to longer program duration. In extreme cases of unfavourable conditions, the program can be completed without the spinning cycle. UKS (unbalance system) allows stable operation and extends the useful life of the appliance.

  • This program is for a normally soiled load at the rated capacity. This consuption data for the nominated energy labelling programme according to AS/NZS 2040.1 & AS/NZS 2040.2
    **Consumption data for the model W4086P.W.AU

Consumption data may vary from the given values depending on variations in water pressure, water hardness, water inlet temperature, room temperature, fluctuations in the electricity, type and volume of the laundry and any extra options.

Adjustment of the displayed washing time Advanced technology allows the appliance to sense the amount of laundry and add the required amount of water during the washing process. Depending on the washing load, washing time can be longer or shorter and the time displayed will be adjusted accordingly. Moreover, displayed washing time may change due to differences in inlet water temperature. At low inlet water temperatures, washing time can be longer; at higher temperatures, it can be shorter. Unevenly distributed laundry or lumps of laundry in the washing machine drum can cause problems such as vibration and noisy operation. The appliance can sense such lumps and will try to redistribute the laundry. Smaller loads (e.g. one towel, one sweater, one bathrobe etc.) or clothes made of materials with special geometrical properties are virtually impossible to distribute evenly across the washing machine drum (slippers, large items etc.). This results in several attempts to redistribute the laundry, which in turn leads to longer program duration.
