This document is a user's operation manual for a Hisense washing machine, identified by the model number X08060026B. It provides comprehensive instructions for installation, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
Function Description:
The Hisense washing machine is designed for domestic laundry care, offering various wash cycles for different fabric types and soiling levels. It incorporates automatic safety functions to detect and react to faults, ensuring safe and efficient operation. The machine is a front-load type, requiring high-efficiency, low-foam detergent.
Important Technical Specifications:
- Water Pressure: Maximum permissible inlet water pressure is 1 MPa. The minimum permissible inlet water pressure is 0.1 MPa for correct operation.
- Electrical Connection: The appliance requires a socket with an earth connection and an adequate 10 A current rating. Electrical connections must comply with local regulations. Extension leads or multiple sockets are not to be used. The power cable must be replaced by a licensed electrician if damaged.
- Dimensions (Minimum Housing): Width: 615 mm, Height: 855 mm. Depth refers to the program chart.
- Weight: The machine weighs over 55 kg, requiring two persons for transport.
- Water Inlet: Depending on the model, it can have a single inlet (cold water only) or dual inlets (hot and cold water). The water tap connection is a 3/4 threaded hose connector.
- Spin Speed: The machine has an imbalance detection and correction system that may reduce spin speed or interrupt spinning if a significant imbalance is detected, protecting the appliance.
Usage Features:
- Laundry Sorting: Instructions are provided for sorting laundry by fabric type (cottons, mixed fibres, easy care/synthetics, wool, handwash items) and color. Specific guidance for Woolmark garments is included.
- Loading: Users are advised to load items of different sizes to improve washing efficiency and distribution, and to avoid overfilling. Delicates should be washed in a cloth bag or pillowcase.
- Preparation: Emptying pockets and fastening zips, buttons, or hooks are crucial steps before washing. Stain removal guidance is also provided.
- Detergent and Additives: The manual details the detergent dispenser with three chambers for prewash/soak detergent, main wash detergent/stain remover/water softener, and fabric softener/liquid starch. It emphasizes using high-efficiency, low-foam detergent and following dosage recommendations based on soiling, load size, and water hardness. Liquid detergents are not recommended with the "Start Delay" function.
- Door Operation: The door can only be opened when the door opening light is green. Users are instructed not to force the door open while the machine is running and to wait at least 2 minutes after pausing or turning off the power for the lock to release.
- Child Safety (if available): A plastic screw on the interior of the door allows for locking the door (horizontal slot) or preventing it from locking (vertical slot).
- First Wash Cycle: A short wash cycle without laundry and with a small amount of detergent is recommended before the first use to remove any residual water from manufacturing tests.
- Transport/Handling: Instructions include unplugging, turning off the tap, disconnecting hoses, draining residual water, and fitting transport bolts before moving the machine.
Maintenance Features:
- Exterior and Control Panel: Can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth and a little neutral (non-abrasive) detergent.
- Door Seal: Should be cleaned with a damp cloth and checked periodically for condition.
- Detergent Dispenser: Detailed instructions are provided for removing, cleaning (including the siphon), and refitting the detergent drawer.
- Filter: Regular checking and cleaning of the filter (at least two or three times a year) is recommended, especially if drainage issues or spin cycle failures occur, or if the pump is blocked. The manual provides step-by-step instructions for draining residual water and cleaning the filter, emphasizing that the water should be cooled before draining.
- Mesh Filter for Water Connection: Regular checking and cleaning of the mesh filter in the water inlet hose is advised, with instructions for disconnecting and reattaching the hose.
- Water Supply Hose: Users should regularly check the supply hose for brittleness and cracks and replace it with a new hose of the same type if necessary.
Troubleshooting Guide:
The manual includes a comprehensive troubleshooting guide for common issues such as the machine not starting (no indicator lamps or flashing "Start/Pause" lamp), the appliance stopping during a program, detergent residues, and machine vibrations during the spin cycle. It also addresses fault codes displayed on the screen, including "F01" (water inflow fault), "F03" (drainage fault), "F04" to "F07", "F23", "F24" (electronic module fault, overflow, or too much foam), "F13" (door lock fault), and "UNB" (unbalance alarm). For each fault, specific checks and remedies are provided, with advice to contact After-Sales Service if the problem persists. The guide also explains why the program time might lengthen or shorten, attributing it to factors like foam formation, load imbalance, and water temperature.
