FAQs

How does the Steel Seal™ improve hygiene?

The Steel Seal™ replaces the traditional rubber door seal with a hygienic stainless steel alternative. This prevents dirt and bacteria from accumulating in crevices, reducing bacterial growth by up to 95% compared to models with rubber seals.

What is Quattro Construction™ 1.0?

Quattro Construction™ 1.0 is ASKO's system for minimizing noise and vibrations. It utilizes four shock absorbers that connect the drum to the machine's base, significantly reducing movement and sound during operation.

Can I add clothes after the cycle has started?

Yes, this model features an 'Add garment' function, allowing you to pause the cycle and add or remove items if needed, provided the water level and temperature are safe.

What is the benefit of the stainless steel drum?

The stainless steel inner and outer drum is highly durable, resistant to corrosion, and can effortlessly handle higher temperatures, contributing to the longevity and effective cleaning performance of the washing machine.

How do I use the Wi-Fi connectivity?

The Wi-Fi connectivity, part of ConnectLife, allows you to connect the washing machine to your home network. This enables remote monitoring of cycles and control via a compatible app on your smartphone or tablet.

What is the maximum cycle time?

The maximum cycle time for a standard wash program is 243 minutes. Quick wash programs are available for shorter cycles, such as the 'Sport' program which can take approximately 20 minutes.

What is the energy consumption per cycle?

The energy consumption for a washing cycle is approximately 0.384 kWh, equating to 38 kWh per 100 cycles for the Eco 40-60°C program.

Troubleshooting

Machine won't start

Check if the power cord is securely plugged in, the door is fully closed, and the delay start timer is not activated. Ensure the circuit breaker hasn't tripped.

Excessive vibration or noise

Verify that the transport bolts have been removed (if newly installed). Ensure the machine is level using the adjustable feet and that the load is balanced within the drum.

Water not draining

Check the drain hose for kinks or blockages. Clean the pump filter at the bottom of the machine.

Poor washing results

Ensure the correct program and temperature are selected for the fabric type. Check that the detergent is fresh and being dispensed correctly. Avoid overloading the drum.
