3.1 Operation
This machine has been designed to wash or treat most
materials. Its use for other purposes than those given
is considered as undue and dangerous.
The machine should be loaded with the nominal load,
smaller or bigger loads should be avoided.
Clothes should not be washed in sacks or cloth bags.
If this is absolutely necessary, make sure the machine
is loaded to the nominal load to avoid possible
unbalanced loads.
Canvas, waterproof items, mops, carpets or rugs should
not be spun.
The machine is controlled using a microprocessor able
to adapt to the needs of each user.
There are 7 programs, which can be modified to varying
degrees. In the standard cycles (P1, P2, P3 & P4), it is
possible to change the time of each cycle, making the
same changes to all four programs. The cycle times for
the extended programs (P5 and P6) can also be
changed, without affecting the other programs. Lastly,
in OPL mode, it is possible to configure P7, which offers
more options, allowing the cycle time, the wash
temperature and the spin speed to be changed.
For further details, please see the sections Configuration
and Standardized Programs.
The machine has an intelligent control to control the
water temperature; if hot water is available, it should
be connected. The machine adjusts the different water
inputs to maintain the programmed temperature.
It has intelligent control for spin cycle management. The
washer extractor controls any unbalanced loads and
manages the spin to ensure a good spin, reducing noise
and extending the useful life of wearable components,
thus significantly reducing fatigue in the mechanical
components.
3.1.1 Running a program
In order to carry out a wash program, the following steps
should be followed:
1- Put garments to be cleaned in washer
extractor drum.
2- Close washer extractor door.
3- Add detergent.
4- Select desired program.
5- Press START key.
After starting a program, the L.E.D.s indicate its condition
and evolution.
With the START key the program stops, and pauses. If
you want the program to continue, press the Start key
again. If the program is in spin mode, it is not possible
to pause the machine, and therefore pressing the
START key will have no effect.
With the STOP key the cycle can be stopped at any
time, in any mode, in any program. When the STOP
button is pressed, all motion will stop. The water will
drain. WAIT will be shown on the display while the water
is allowed to drain. Once the water has drained the
door will unlock and OPEn dOOR will be displayed.
3.1.2 Program end
The program can finish in several ways:
• Normal end: the program finishes when all cycles
have been carried out.
• By pressing the STOP key at any time.
• By pressing the ADVANCE key from any point in
the program, repeatedly, the end of the program
can be reached. If a spin is being carried out, the
ADVANCE key will not respond until the braking
safety time has finished (approx 1 min.).
When a program ends, before allowing the door to be
opened, the clothes are untangled during 30 seconds.
An acoustic signal indicates when the door can be
opened.
