FAQs

What is the maximum load for the Quick Wash cycle?

The Quick Wash cycle is designed for smaller loads, cleaning up to 1.5 kg of laundry in just 15 minutes.

How often should I use the Drum Clean function?

It is recommended to use the Drum Clean function at least once a month to maintain hygiene and prevent odors within the washing machine.

Can I add items after the cycle has started?

Yes, using the Pause & Add feature, you can add forgotten items within the first 10 minutes of the wash cycle.

What does the 'A Class' energy rating mean?

The 'A Class' rating indicates that this washing machine is highly energy-efficient, designed to minimize electricity consumption during operation.

How does the Steam program benefit my clothes?

The Steam program helps to remove odors and bacteria, reduces creases for easier ironing, and leaves clothes softer by penetrating fabric fibers with steam.

Is the ConnectLife app required to use the machine?

No, the ConnectLife app is optional. It provides smart features like energy usage monitoring but is not essential for the machine's basic operation.

What is the purpose of the Auto Wash program?

The Auto Wash program automatically weighs your laundry and adjusts the wash duration, water level, and rinsing times to provide a customized and efficient wash for each load, saving water and energy.

Troubleshooting

Washing machine won't start.

Check if the power cord is securely plugged in and the door is fully closed. Ensure the water supply is turned on and the delay start function is not active. Check the circuit breaker.

Clothes are not clean enough or still stained.

Ensure you are not overloading the machine, as this can impede washing performance. Verify correct detergent dosage for load size and water hardness. Consider using the Jet Wash feature or Hygiene Guard for tougher stains.

Excessive vibration or noise during spin cycle.

Make sure the machine is perfectly level by adjusting its feet. Ensure all transit bolts were removed during installation. Distribute the laundry evenly in the drum; an unbalanced load can cause vibration.

Water is not draining or cycle won't complete.

Check the drain hose for kinks or blockages. Clean the drain pump filter, usually located at the bottom front of the machine, as it might be clogged with lint or small items.

Unpleasant odors coming from the machine.

Run the Drum Clean function at 95ºC regularly to eliminate bacteria and mold. Always wipe the door seal dry after each use and leave the door slightly ajar when not in operation to allow for ventilation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all packaging materials, including the transit bolts at the rear of the machine. Keep the transit bolts for future relocation if needed.
  2. Positioning: Place the washing machine on a firm, level surface. Adjust the leveling feet at the bottom to ensure stability and prevent vibrations during operation.
  3. Water Connection: Connect the water inlet hose(s) to the appropriate cold and hot (if applicable) water taps and securely to the machine's inlet valves. Ensure seals are tight to prevent leaks.
  4. Drainage: Securely attach the drain hose to a standpipe or laundry sink, ensuring it is positioned correctly to allow for proper water drainage.
  5. Power: Plug the washing machine into a grounded electrical outlet. Avoid using extension cords.
  6. First Use: Before loading laundry, run a short cycle (e.g., a Quick Wash) with no clothes and a small amount of detergent to clean any manufacturing residue.

Compatibility

  • Water Pressure: Ensure your home's water pressure is within the recommended range as specified in the user manual.
  • Detergents: Compatible with standard high-efficiency (HE) laundry detergents for automatic washing machines. Always follow detergent manufacturer instructions for dosage.
  • ConnectLife App: Compatible with smartphones running modern iOS or Android operating systems. Requires a stable Wi-Fi connection in your home for optimal functionality.

Care & Maintenance

  • Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the machine with a soft, damp cloth regularly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Detergent Dispenser: Clean the detergent dispenser drawer periodically to prevent residue buildup. Remove the drawer and rinse under warm water.
  • Drum Cleaning: Use the Drum Clean function at least once a month to remove bacteria, mold, and detergent residue from the drum.
  • Door Seal: After each wash, wipe the rubber door seal dry to prevent mold and mildew growth. Leave the door slightly ajar when not in use to allow air circulation.
  • Filter Cleaning: Regularly check and clean the drain pump filter, usually located at the bottom front of the machine, to prevent blockages and ensure efficient draining.
  • Water Inlet Filter: Periodically check and clean the filter screens in the water inlet hoses to prevent blockages from sediment.
