If the connection cable is damaged or broken, it must only be replaced by an approved service technician to protect the user from danger.
-
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine manufacturer original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted the safety standards of the machine can be guaranteed.
-
To avoid the risk of personal injury or damage to the washing machine, do not install it in place where it is damp and where it suffers from rainfall.
-
Do not install the washing machine in place where it suffers from the sun directly, in which plastic or components will be damaged. It will be shortened the life of your washing machine.
-
Do not install the washing machine in place where temperatures below freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below freezing point.
-
Do not shoot the washing machine with water when you clean it.
-
Keep the washing machine away from fire or heat sources.
-
Before using the washing machine for the first time, make sure that the transit bolts at the rear of the machine have been removed. During spinning, transit bolts which is still in place may result in damage to both the machine and adjacent furniture or appliances.
-
Turn off the tap if the machine is to be left for any length of time (e.g. holiday), especially if there is no floor drain (gully) in the immediate vicinity.
-
Take care to ensure that foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins, paper clips) do not find their way into the machine with the laundry. These may damage components of the machine (e.g. drum), which in turn can result in damage to the laundry.
-
Do not wash water-repellent things(e.g. raincoats) with washing machine.
Only remove laundry from the washing machine once the drum has stopped turning. Reaching into a moving drum is extremely dangerous and could result in injury.

play with its controls. Supervise children whilst you are using it. Older children may only use the washing machine if its operation has been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely, recognising the dangers of misuse. -
For machines with a ‘porthole’ door, remember that the porthole glass will be hot when washing at very high temperatures. Do not let children touch it.
Parts and Features
Unscrew the drain pump filter to let water run out when the machine is not used for a long time.
The drawing of machine in the manual is only used for instruction. It may be vary from the mode you buy.
Installation
Backout packing
- Remove all the packing(including the foam base) or the vibration and noise may occur.
- Dispose all the wrappage safety and keep them out of the reach of children. Danger of suffocation!
- It is normal that water drops appear on the packing plastic bag and the door glass, which are resulted from the water left in the tub for checking out.
Accessories
Make sure that you have received all of the items shown below.
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.
Strong vibration, noise or failures may occur if the transit bolts are not removed.
- Keep the transit bolts for future transportation. Whenever the machine is transported, the transit bolts must be refitted.
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 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.
Level adjustment
The machine must stand perfectly level on all four feet to ensure safe and
proper operation. Incorrect installation may cause vibrations and noise and
may cause the machine to move about.
To 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.
Hold adjust feet securely with a pipe wrench. Turn locknut again using the
spanner until it sits firmly up against the housing.
Vibration and noise may occur if the locknuts do not sit firmly up against the
houses.
Drain hose connection
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 washing machine.
If required, the drain hose can be extended to a length of 4 m.
Connected securely to a standpipe
Firstly form a hook in the end of the drain hose using the “U” piece supplied.
Place the drain hose into your standpipe, which should have an internal
diameter of approximately 38mm thus ensuring there is an air break between the
drain hose and standpipe.
When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the top fo the standpipe is no
more than 90cm and no less than 60cm above floor level.
Water inlet connection
Connect the inlet hose supplied with the machine to a tap with a 3/4″ thread.
Do not use previously employed hoses.
Installation should comply with local water authority and building regulations
‘ requirements. When there is a inlet valve at the back of the machine, it
must be connected to a cold water supply. If there are two inlet valve, one is
connected to a cold water supply and the other
is connected to a hot water supply. Follow the indication of the picture below
to complete the connection.

- Place the drain hose well.
- Sort the laundry by colour and by care label. Most garments have a textile care label in the collar or side seam.
- 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.
- Close any zips, fasten hooks and eyes etc before washing.
- Dark textiles often contain excess dye and should be washed separately several times before being included in a mixed load. Always wash whites and coloureds separately.
- Badly soiled areas, stains etc. should be pre-treated with liquid detergent, stain removers etc.
- Turn over the clothes which pill easily and is with woolen surface before putting them into the machine.
Unfold the laundry and load loosely in the drum. Mixing both large and small items gives 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.
Cleanness and Maintenance
Disconnect the machine from the mains electricity supply and withdraw the plug
from the socket before cleaning the machine.
The washing machine must not be hosed down.
Clean the exterior with a mild non-abrasive cleaning agent or soap and water
using a well wrung-out cloth. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners, glass cleaners or all-purpose cleaning
agents. These might damage plastic surfaces and other components because of
the chemicals theycontain.
Clean the drum every 3 months by using the “Drum clean” programme.
Remove detergent residues regularly. Clear the drawer following these:
- Pull out the drawer until a resistance is felt. Press down the release catch and at the same time pull the drawer right out of the machine.
- Remove the siphon from compartment and clean it.
- Clean the dispenser using a brush and warm water.
Cleaning the drawer housing
Use a bottle brush to remove detergent residues inside the drawer housing.
Use pointed nose pliers to withdraw the plastic filter. Clean, put back and secure. These filter should be checked every 6 months or so, or more often if there are frequent interruptions to the water supply.
The filter must be put back in place after cleaning.
The filter should be cleaned every 2 months or so, or when there is fault that
the “E03” is on the screen.
