FAQs
How do I activate the SteamCure function?
The SteamCure function is integrated into specific programs like 'Hygiene/anti-allergy' and 'Steam'. Some cycles might automatically use steam, while others may have an option to add steam for wrinkle reduction or sanitization. Please refer to the specific program descriptions in your user manual.
What is the benefit of EnergySpin™?
EnergySpin™ uses advanced drum movements and optimized heat control to dissolve detergent more effectively and earlier in the wash cycle. This allows for excellent cleaning results at lower temperatures, significantly reducing energy consumption by up to 30% compared to standard Class A models.
How does AutoDose work?
AutoDose automatically detects the load size and fabric type, then dispenses the precise amount of liquid detergent and fabric softener from its dedicated reservoirs. This prevents over-usage, saves money, and ensures optimal care for your clothes.
Can I add a garment after the cycle has started?
Yes, this washing machine features an 'Add garment' function, allowing you to pause the cycle and add forgotten items during the initial stages of the wash.
What is the maximum spin speed and what does 'Spin-drying class B' mean?
The maximum spin speed is 1400 RPM. 'Spin-drying class B' indicates that after a standard cycle, the remaining moisture content in the clothes will be moderate, meaning they will be damp but not excessively wet, facilitating faster drying.
How long does the Quick program take?
The Quick program can wash a full 9kg load in just 28 minutes. There is also a quicker option for small loads, taking approximately 14 minutes.
Is this washing machine suitable for hard water areas?
While the machine is designed for efficient performance, using a water softener in very hard water areas can help maintain optimal cleaning results and prolong the machine's lifespan. Check the manual for specific recommendations.
Troubleshooting
Washing machine does not start.
Ensure the power plug is securely connected to a working outlet. Check if the door is fully closed. Verify that the delay start timer is not activated. If the issue persists, consult the manual for specific error codes.
Excessive vibration or noise during spin cycle.
Check that the washing machine is level and stable on the floor. Ensure all transit bolts were removed during installation. Distribute laundry evenly within the drum.
Water not draining from the drum.
Check if the drain hose is kinked or blocked. Ensure the drain hose is inserted to the correct depth and height. Clean the debris filter if accessible, as it may be clogged.
AutoDose system not dispensing detergent.
Confirm that the detergent and softener compartments are filled correctly and have not reached their minimum levels. Check for any blockages in the dispenser drawer or corresponding pipes. Ensure the AutoDose function is enabled for the selected program.
App connectivity issues.
Verify that your home Wi-Fi is working and the washing machine is within range. Restart both your router and the washing machine. Ensure you are using the latest version of the HomeWhiz app and have logged in correctly.
