ABOUT YOUR WASHING MACHINE

Out of Balance Interruption

The out of balance has 2 level which are low level and high level.

The high level: Machine will be stopped, caused by an uneven distribution of clothes in the wash bowl. To rectify the out of balance condition, open the lid and redistribute the clothes evenly in the wash bowl. Closing the spin stage of the wash.

The low level: The washing machine try to optimize by reduce spin speed to avoid out of balance to finish the cycle.

If you have frequent out of balance interruptions, it may be due to your washing machine not standing firm and level on the floor. This can be corrected by adjust the washing machine legs as described in the Installation Instructions supplied with your machines.

Touchpad Response and Lights Always press touchpads gently.

Watch the lights on the control panel to see the effect pressing a touchpad or turning a program selector knob has, and listen for “BEEPS”.

When you press a touchpad you will get a short “BEEP” to acknowledge the entry. If the option is not available at the time, the machine will not allow you to select it. After the machine has started, the entire wash option touchpad will be disabled and machine will give three short beeps to indicate the touchpad is disabled. The Star/Pause To Pause touchpad is still active but you need to press and hold the touchpad for minimum 1.2 seconds to pause machine. This is to confirm that you really want to pause the machine.

Wash Operation

Water at 35 C is combined with detergent to dissolve and activate it. Depending on model, this concentrated solution is then circulated or showered over the clothes in combination with unique bowl and agitator rotations to provide wash action at the selected wash temperature.

Agitation

After the wash operation is completed, the bowl is filled with more water. The low profile agitator or agitator then moves in an energy efficient mode, generating additional mechanical actions.

Auto Water Level Feature

Your washing machine has selectable “Auto” sensing water level option as well as allowing you to choose a manual water level if you wish. We recommend you to use the Auto 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.

SAVING WATER AND ENERGY

This washing machine features water and energy saving options.

To save energy, the wash time can be shortened for a load of less dirty clothes by selecting the appropriate wash program e.g. Fast Wash. The washing machine is energy efficient and most water efficient when used with a full load of clothes and with Eco Rinse selected. You should use Eco Rinse (where available) instead of Deep Rinse to reduce the amount of water used for rinsing clothes.

Your machine is most water efficient when Eco Rinse is used as the rinse option.

Each time you switch on your washing machine the machine will select most suitable rinse option for the selected program. You can change rinse option if you wish. The difference between Deep rinse and Eco rinse is explained on the page 13.

POWER FAILURE RECOVERY

When there is power failure while 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 starts washing from the stage where it is left off

CONTROL PANEL

8 Kg. SWT8043

PROGRAM SELECTOR KNOB

Turn the Program Selector knob to choose the wash program you want. The table “Your Program Guide” shown on page 16 will help you in selecting the right program.

The Program Selector knob is not a timer. Once you select a wash program, the Program Selector knob will stay at that position for the whole wash cycle.

WATER TEMPERATURES BUTTON

For each wash program your washing machine automatically selects a suitable fill water temperature. If you want to use a different wash water temperature, press the Temperature button repeatedly.

The water temp lights will tell you the temperature for each press of the button.

You have four temperatures to choose from Very Hot, Hot, Warm and Cold.

The temperature of warm water will depend on the temperature and pressure of your hot and cold water supplies. The recommended temperature for warm is 35°C. You can adjust the flow rate of the water supplies to adjust the Warm temperature. All rinse water temperatures are cold.

Always check your label for the washing temperature symbols which the International Care Labelling Code now uses

NOTE

If you have a cold water connection ONLY and the hot inlet valve is capped off (refer installation instructions) you must select Cold washes only. To fill detergent, you must follow steps as below:

  1. Measure the correct amount of powder detergent by following the recommendations on the package.
  2. Mix powder detergent in one litre of hot or warm water.
  3. Add the pre-mixed detergent to the wash load.

Water Temperatures

Flood diagnostic is explained on page 32. You should refer to this if you have water pouring onto the floorThe display will show “E30 ” and you will hear rapid short beep continuously to remind you about this problem.

WATER LEVEL BUTTON

Choose the water level by pressing Water Level button. Use only the amount of water you need for the wash load.

CHOOSE THE WATER LEVEL

1.Choose the water level by pressing Water Level touchpad.

You can select:

Auto, Full, Medium and Low

(Auto level: the exact water level required to wash your clothes effectively is determined and set for you automatically, ensuring no water is wasted.)

2. Use only the amount of water you need for the wash load.

CHOOSE THE SPIN

TOUCH THE OPTIONS BUTTON TO SELECT THE SPIN OPTION. Regular, Cold, Bedding,Heavy Duty,Rinse+Spin,Spin,Quick 20, Daily 45,Heavy Duty,Denim(*SWT1023A),Hand Wash, Sportswear (*SWT1023A) : Can select all spin options Delicates : Can select Medium, Low and No Spin

Note: No spin is effect only to final spin by spin at gentle speed 1 minute only to prevent water drop to floor when moving the clothes out of the drum.

RINSE OPTION BUTTON

Pressing the “Rinse Option” touchpad allows you to change the rinse type. For most washes the machine automatically selects “Deep Rinse” for you

There are four rinses to choose from... Fast rinse, Eco rinse, Deep rinse and Extra rinse.

  • Extra : Extra rinse, the machine fills twice, giving you two deep rinses.
  • Deep : Deep rinse the machine fills once, giving you one deep rinse.
  • Eco : Eco rinse is a spray rinse giving you maximum water saving.
  • Fast : Fast rinse uses less time then Eco rinse by performing only 3 Eco sprays but the amount of water in each spray is increased.

How does Eco Rinse work ?

When Eco rinse is used, rinse water is sprayed into the washbowl in pulses. After each pulse the washbowl will spin to remove detergent laden water from the clothes.

The machine will go through a series of maximum four pulses spray and short spin cycles in this manner, depending on program selection, followed by a final long spin that removes the water from the clothes to complete the full wash program.

NOTE

  • Compare this with Deep rinse where much more water is used.
  • Deep rinse, water enters the machine filling up to the wash water level selected. The washer agitates and finally empties the rinse water through the drain hose.

Extra rinse, this is special option for those people who suffer from allergies, this extra rinse will provide two deep rinses to ensure all detergent residue has been removed.

  • Eco Rinse and Fast Rinse CANNOT be selected with Bedding program.
  • We strongly recommend you use Eco rinse for your washes whenever you can. There is considerable saving of water when Eco is used instead of Deep or Extra to rinse clothes.
  • Eco and Fast rinse is not designed to be used with fabric softener. Select Deep or Extra rinse if you are going to use fabric softener. Deep rinse ensures the fabric softener is correctly dispensed and thoroughly removed from your clothes during rinsing.
  • Daily program rinse is fixed with Deep rinse only
  • Quick20 program rinse is fixed with Fast rinse only

DAILY USE

STARTING YOUR WASHING MACHINE

  1. Connect the mains plug to the mains socket.
  2. Turn the water tap on.

LOAD THE WASHING MACHINE

When loading the clothes into your washing machine, there are four things to remember:

1. Clothes must be loaded evenly around the agitator

For best result load small items first, followed by large items.

For example, a typical load should be loaded using the following sequence : handkerchiefs, wash cloths, undershorts, pillow cases, T-shirts, business shirts, tablecloths, sheets, bath towels.

2. Clothes must not be wrapped around the agitator.

3. The washing machine must not be overloaded. Clothes must be able to move during wash.

4. The load should contain only three or four large items, for example sheets. The rest of the load should be small items. A mixed load of large and small items will wash cleaner than a load of all large items.

ADD THE DETERGENT

When using the washing machine for the first time,check that the dispenser is set for the type of detergent you will use. To do this, proceed as follows:

1. Pull the dispenser drawer forward until it stops.

2. Lift the front of the drawer up and forward to

3. Check the position of the flap at the rear of the detergent compartment in the dispenser drawer. (Factory setting is flap up for powder.)

4. Clip the flap down if you intend to use liquid detergent.

5. Refit the dispenser back into its runners.

Remember: If you change the type of detergent you use, the position of the flap will need changing. See picture.

6. You are now ready to add detergent. Measure the amount required and pour it into the detergent compartment of the dispenser drawer.

When using liquid detergent, some may leadk out of the dispenser into the wash load earlier than expected through small openings in the back of the dispenser.

The openings are to help flushing out of detergent.

7. If you want to use fabric softener, see “Add fabric softener”.

8. Close the drawer by pushing it backwards into the top panel of the washing machine when you have finished adding detergent.

ADD FABRIC SOFTENER

Before adding softener to the dispenser, make sure the siphon cap is pushed firmly down onto the spigot in the drawer.

The softener will not siphon out if the cap is incorrectly fitted, is missing or blocked with residue. You are now ready to add fabric softener.

Measure the correct amount as recommended on the softener package into a cup and then pour it into the softener compartment of the dispenser drawer.

Caution: Do not overfill the fabric softener dispenser.

Overfilling and then siphoning out too early can cause softener and detergent to mix resulting in staining problems.

The softener dispenser holds 90ml when filled up to the MAX marker. Any level lower than MAX will function correctly.

Caution: Only use the detergent compartment for detergent and the fabric softener compartment for fabric softener.
