2.2 Product Features
Auto sensing water level
Auto sensing is a feature where the
washer fills automatically with water to
just the right level for your clothes load.
You do have the option to manually set
the water level if you wish.
We recommend you use the auto sensing
water level option to ensure there is just
the right amount of water for the wash
load in the machine. In other words, it will
usually give you the best wash while also
being the most efficient in terms of water
usage.
At times during a wash, it may appear
your machine is either doing nothing or
intermittently it is only gently vibrating/
jiggling/agitating.
This is because your machine could be:
In auto sensing test mode and the
machine is determining the correct
amount of water for your wash.
At a drain stage of the wash program
and the machine is allowing time for
water to flow the washbowl from to the
out bowl.
Engaging or disengaging the drive
clutch mechanism. Wait a short time,
your washing machine will complete
the above tasks and continue with the
wash.
The amount of water for auto is factory
set at an optimised level. You can adjust
the Auto level up or down by a small
amount.
Power Failure Recovery
When there is power failure while the machine
is washing or rinsing or spinning. The machine
tries to save the settings at which stage the
machine is doing and then when the power
returns back the machine will start washing
from the stage where it is left off.
PreMix
This feature helps to dissolve and activate the
active ingredients of the detergent, by blending
the detergent with the water (except Fast 20
program), before dispensing into the tub and
onto the clothes.
Dual Jets System
Dual jets help to improve cleaning results by
spraying directly on the clothes and give a
more thorough rinse-out of stains and dirt.

Each load of washing should contain
clothing which needs the same washing
conditions. For example, you should
not wash delicate clothes with very dirty
work clothes.
Colour fast and non-colourfast fabrics
should be separated. Knowing the type
of fabrics you have and how dirty they
are will help when you make selections
from the wash program options.
Some fabrics are lint collectors and can
pick up lint, dirt and colour from other
fabrics which are lint producers. Some
examples are listed below:
Lint collectors
Lint producers
- Corduroy
- Synthetics
- Permanent
press fabrics
- Towels
- Nappies
- Chenille/Candlewick
Make sure that you wash lint collectors
separately from lint producers.
NOTE:
IMPORTANT!
However, due to the variables of fabric
types, soil levels, detergent types and
available program settings you may find
some combinations of these which do
not always result in the perfect wash.
If for example you see residuals of
detergent or soils on some items, please
read the section Residues on washed
items paragraph.
Over time you will learn what is the best
set-up of programs, detergent and load
sorting for different load types and soils.
These Washing Instructions are of a
general nature and you should get good
wash results by following them.
Rub particularly soiled areas with a
special detergent or detergent paste.
Treat curtains with special care.
Never wash whites and coloureds
together. Whites may lose their
“whiteness” in the wash.
New coloured items may run in the first
wash; they should therefore be washed
separately the first time.
Button up pillowcases, close zip
fasteners, hooks and poppers.
Tie any belts or long tapes.
Remove persistent stains before
washing.
Make sure that no metal objects are
left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety
pins, pins).
Wash bras, pantyhose
and other delicates in
a mesh laundry bag,
which you can
purchase from your
supermarket.
Remove hooks or tie them up in a bag
or net.
5. WASHING HINTS
5.1 Sort Your Washing Into
Separate Wash Loads
background
22 www.westinghouse.com.au / www.westinghouse.co.nz
If you use pre-treatment sprays or stain
removers, apply them to the clothing well
away from your washing machine.
Pre-treatment sprays and stain remover
can damage plastic components on your
washing machine.
WARNING!
Don’t use the wrong type of detergent.
You must use a low sudsing detergent
designed for front load washing
machines or high efficiency top loaders,
such as Cold Power for Front Loaders
and High Efficiency Top Loaders or
detergents labelled “Matic”.
Don’t use soap-based products in your
washing machine.
Don’t use too much detergent. This can
result in excessive suds that can cause
low spin speeds, poor rinsing and
overloading the motor during spin stages
of the wash program.
Don’t use too little detergent because
you will get a poor wash. If you think you
need more, increase dosages by only
small amounts to avoid excessive suds.
Quantity of detergent to be
used
Good washing results also depend on the
choice of detergent and use of the correct
quantities to avoid waste and protect the
environment.
Although biodegradable, detergents
contain substances which, in large
quantities, can upset the delicate balance
of nature.
The choice of detergent will depend on the
type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons,
etc.), the colour, washing temperature and
degree of soiling.
The type and quantity of detergent will
depend on the type of fabric, load size,
degree of soiling and hardness of the
water used.
Information on the hardness of the water
in your area can be obtained from the
relevant water supply company, or from
your local authority.
Follow the product manufacturers’
instructions on quantities to use.
Not enough washing powder causes:
the wash load to turn grey, greasy
clothes.
Too much washing powder causes:
sudsing, reduced washing effect,
inadequate rinsing.
Use less detergent if: you are washing
a small load, the laundry is lightly
soiled, and large amounts of foam
form during washing.
Water hardness is classified in so-called
“degrees” of hardness.
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water.
For dried stains, soak overnight in water
with a special detergent then rub in the
soap and water.
Oil based paint: moisten with benzine
stain remover, lay the garment on a soft
cloth and dab the stain; treat several
times.
Dried grease stains: moisten with
turpentine, lay the garment on a soft
surface and dab the stain with the
fingertips and a cotton cloth.
Stubborn stains may not be removed by
just water and detergent. It is therefore
advisable to treat them prior to washing.
Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water
or a rust removing product used in cold
water. Be careful with rust stains which
are not recent since the cellulose
structure will already have been
damaged and the fabric tends to hole.
5.2 Pre-treatment Sprays And
Stain Removers
5.3 Detergent
5.4 A Guide To Stain Removal
background
23
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse
well (whites and fast coloureds only).
Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach
(whites and fast coloureds only).
Ball-point pen and glue: moisten with
acetone (*), lay the garment on a soft
cloth and dab the stain.
Lipstick: moisten with acetone (*) as
above, then treat stains with methylated
spirits. Remove any residual marks from
white fabrics with bleach.
Red wine: soak in water and detergent,
rinse and treat with acetic or citric acid,
then rinse. Treat any residual marks with
bleach.
Ink: depending on the type of ink,
moisten the fabric first with acetone (*),
then with acetic acid; treat any residual
marks on white fabrics with bleach and
then rinse thoroughly.
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover,
methylated spirits or benzine, then rub
with detergent paste.
(*) do not use acetone on artificial silk.

7. CARE AND CLEANING
7.1 What To Do After You Have
Finished Your Washing.
7.2 Cleaning The Lint Filter
Your washing machine will give you long
and trouble-free service, if you follow the
instructions in this section.
These instructions show you how to care
for your washing machine.
Press the Power button to turn off the
machine.
1.
Turn off the water taps. This will extend
the life of the inlet hoses.
3.
Leave the lid open for a while. This
allows time for moisture inside the
washing machine to evaporate and for
any odours to disperse.
4.
Switch off the electricity at the power
point.
2.
Lint is a collection of threads and fluff which
comes off your clothes during washing.
Your washing machine collects this lint in
the lint filter. It is important to clean out this
lint filter preferably after each wash.
How to clean the lint filter:
Remove the softener dispenser cup and
filter column from the centre of the
agitator.
1.
Unclip the filter bag from the column.
2.
Turn the bag inside out and remove
the lint.
3.
Wash the filter bag and dispenser cup
in hot water.
4.
Reassemble the filter to the column
and place it back in the centre of the
agitator.
5.
Squeeze tabs
together and
push out.
background
26 www.westinghouse.com.au / www.westinghouse.co.nz
Having removed the drawer, use a small
brush to clean the recess, ensuring that
all washing powder residue is removed
from the upper and lower part of the
recess. Replace the drawer and run the
rinse program without any clothes in the
drum.
Remove the water inlet hose from
the water tap.
If your water is very hard or contains
traces of lime deposit, the water inlet
filter may become clogged. It is therefore
a good idea to clean it from time to time.
To clean the water inlet filters:
1.
Close the water tap.
2.
Clean the filter in the inlet hose with
a stiff brush.
3.
Remove the dispenser drawer from
its places.
Pull out the dispenser drawer until it
stops then lift up and pull out from the
recess.
1.
To do this proceed as follows:
Clean the dispenser drawer with
water and a brush, e.g. an old
toothbrush.
2.
Dry the drawer.
3.
The dispenser needs to be cleaned
regularly, preferably after each wash.
Inspect the dispenser after each wash to
see if there is any residue of detergent.
