This document is a user manual for a Haier Top Load Full-Automatic Washing Machine, covering models HWT12AD1, HWT10AD1, HWT09AD1, and HWT10ADB1.
Function Description
This appliance is designed for household and similar applications, including staff kitchen areas, farmhouses, hotels, motels, residential environments, and communal use in blocks of flats or launderettes. It performs various washing cycles and offers features to customize the wash process. The machine is a top-loading design, meaning laundry is loaded from the top into the inner tub. It includes an automatic detergent dispensing system for some models and offers options for water temperature, water level, spin speed, and additional wash features like pre-wash, extra rinse, and eco rinse. Some models also feature a "Smart-dose" tray for automatic liquid detergent dispensing. The machine can be controlled via a dial and buttons on the control panel, and some models support Wi-Fi connectivity for remote control via a mobile app and over-the-air (OTA) updates.

Usage Features
The washing machine offers a variety of programs and customizable options:
Control Panel and Display:
- Dial: Used to select automatic programs such as Mix, Cotton, Delicate, Durable, Eco, Express, Bedding, Wool, Hygiene, Bulky, Drum Clean, and Downloaded programs.
- Buttons:
- Water Level: Selects water level (Auto, Low, Med, High, and intermediate levels). In "Auto" mode, the machine detects load size and selects the appropriate water level.
- Water Temp: Selects wash temperature (Cold, Warm, Hot, and intermediate levels). Certain cycles have temperature restrictions (e.g., Eco, Delicate, Wool cannot use "Hot"). Hygiene and Drum Clean default to "Hot."
- Wash+: Offers options like "Auto Dose" (for HWT10AD1, HWT10ADB1, HWT12AD1 models, with 5 adjustable levels), "Soiled+" (increases wash time by 30% and includes a 15-minute soak), and "UV Sanitise" (kills bacteria, not available for Delicate, Bulky, Express, Wool cycles, but default for Hygiene and Drum Clean).
- Options: Selects special features such as "Pre Wash," "Extra Rinse," and "Eco Rinse." Pre Wash requires Auto Dose to be selected (for HWT10AD1, HWT10ADB1, HWT12AD1). Eco Rinse is default for the Eco cycle, and Extra Rinse is default for the Hygiene cycle.
- Spin Speed: Selects spin speed (No Spin, Low, Med, High). "No Spin" drains water. "High" spin is not available for Delicate, Wool, and Bulky cycles.
- Advance Wash: Offers "Soak," "Wash," "Rinse," and "Spin" options. "Soak" is not available for Eco, Express, and Wool cycles.
- Delay Start: Delays the start of a wash cycle from 15 minutes up to 12 hours, in increments of 30 minutes initially, then 1 hour.
- Start/Pause (▷II): Starts, pauses, or restarts a wash cycle.
- Power ( & ): Powers the machine on/off. The machine automatically powers off after 10 minutes if no button is pressed.
- Digital Display: Shows remaining time in minutes during a wash cycle, delay start time, or error codes.
- Indicator Display: LEDs indicate active programs, options, and washing progress (solid for running, flashing for paused/current stage).
Detergent Usage:
- Liquid Detergent Tray: For liquid detergent.
- Washing Powder Cavity: For powder detergent.
- Softener Inlet: For fabric softener, dispensed during the last rinse cycle.
- Smart-dose Tray (HWT10AD1, HWT10ADB1, HWT12AD1): For automatic liquid detergent dispensing. The blue liquid detergent tray must be removed when using powder detergent.
Loading Laundry:
- The rated washing capacity refers to the largest dry weight.
- Do not exceed the height of the metal drum surface.
- For clothes less than 2.0kg, avoid selecting water level "Med" or higher to prevent splashing.
- Low suds/high-efficiency washing powder or liquid is recommended.
Special Features:
- Favourite: Users can save custom wash cycles with desired modifiers.
- Child Lock: Prevents accidental changes to the wash cycle. Activated by holding "Spin Speed" and "Advance Wash" buttons for 1 second after starting. Deactivated by holding the same buttons for more than 1 second.
- Wi-Fi & Remote: Allows remote control via the SmartHQ app for models HWT10AD1, HWT10ADB1, and HWT12AD1. The machine must be in "remote mode" (activated by holding "Advance Wash" and "Delay Start" for 3 seconds) for remote access.
- OTA Update: Over-the-air software updates are available via the app when the machine is idle.
Washing Process:
- The washer uses a 2-step water fill: an initial fill with warm water to dissolve detergent, followed by a 5-minute soak-agitation, and then a second fill to reach the selected water level.
Maintenance Features
Regular maintenance is crucial for optimal performance and longevity:
General Maintenance:
- Always remove the power plug before cleaning or maintenance.
- Do not wash directly with water.
- Wipe the cabinet with a damp cloth and neutral detergent.
- Avoid using thinners, petrol, alcohol, or other harsh solvents.
- After each wash, turn off the tap and drain the water completely.
- Hang up the power cord and drain hose.
- Wipe any water drops from the machine surface and inside the tub.
- Leave the lid open for about 1 hour after each wash to evaporate residual water.
Cleaning Components:
- Lint Filters: Two lint filters must be used during washing and cleaned after each wash. To remove, push down the spring piece of the top filter, pull out, open the back, remove lint, then reassemble.
- Detergent Box: Clean periodically to ensure even detergent distribution and prevent build-up. Dismantle by tilting upward and pulling out, clean with a brush and duster cloth, then flush with water, and push back in.
- Water Inlet Valve Filter: May become blocked by impurities. Clean with a plastic bristled brush every two months.
Troubleshooting:
The manual includes a comprehensive troubleshooting guide for common issues and error codes:
- E1 (Drainage issues): Check for blocked drain hose or drainage time exceeding 8 minutes.
- E2 (Lid not closed): Close the top lid.
- Ob (Load imbalance/machine not level): Redistribute laundry, level the machine, or check the safety switch.
- E4 (Water supply issues): Check if the water tap is closed, water supply is interrupted, water inlet valve is blocked, or water pressure is too low.
- Water tap leaks: Fasten the inlet hose.
- Machine does not work (power related): Check for power failure, ensure plug is inserted tightly, or verify water level has reached the preset position.
- Machine does not spin (load related): Ensure plug is inserted tightly, top lid is closed, or laundry is evenly distributed.
- Abnormal sounds: Level the machine, redistribute laundry, or remove foreign objects from the tub.
- FA (Water level sensor failed): Contact Customer Care.
- F2 (Overflow Error): Contact Customer Care.
- E2-1 (Door lock alarm): Contact Customer Care.
- FC1 (Communication failure between display board and motor driver): Contact Customer Care.
- FC2 (Communication failure between display board and Power board): Contact Customer Care.
