  • Softener is automatically released during the final rinse. Up to 160 ml can be added. For concentrated softener, dilute with water before adding.
  • Bleach can be used, but avoid whiten bleach for coloured clothes.

Safety Precautions:

  • Hydrogen Gas Warning: If a hot water heater has not been used for two weeks or more, turn on all hot water faucets for several minutes before connecting the washing machine to allow hydrogen gas to escape. Do not smoke or use open flames during this process.
  • Electrical Safety: Do not plug/unplug with wet hands, use damaged cords, or use plug adaptors/extension cords. Ensure the power plug is fully inserted and wiped periodically. Unplug before cleaning.
  • Grounding: Ensure proper grounding to prevent electric shock.
  • Child Safety: Children should not operate the appliance unsupervised. Keep children from playing with the appliance.
  • Flammable Materials: Do not put flammable materials (kerosene, gasoline, alcohol, etc.) in the tub or near the appliance.
  • Tub Safety: Do not touch the tub until it completely stops. If the tub does not stop within 15 seconds after opening the lid during spin, switch off immediately and call service.
  • Water Temperature: Do not use water hotter than 60°C.
  • Water Supply: Do not make wrong connections for hot and cold water supply faucets. Be careful of very hot water. Do not add extra water directly into the tub.
  • Installation: Locate away from direct sunlight or heat. Ensure new hose-sets are used. Do not insert hands or feet under the main unit. Do not climb or put heavy objects on the appliance.
  • Waterproof Items: Do not wash, rinse, or spin waterproof sheets or clothes (raincoats, wet suits) to prevent injury or damage.

Convenient Functions:

  • Cancelling End Buzzer: Press "Start/Pause" and "Off/On" simultaneously, then hold for 3 seconds.
  • Child Lock: Prevents children from falling into the tub. If the lid is opened, a buzzer sounds, and water flushes out if not closed within 10 seconds. This function does not lock the lid or buttons. To activate/deactivate, press and hold "Air Dry (90 min)" for 5 seconds after turning on the power.
  • Turning the Tub by Hand: If difficult to reach the detergent inlet, turn on power, and when a clicking sound is heard, turn the tub clockwise within 20 seconds.

Maintenance Features

Lint Filter:

  • Clean after each operation.
  • Gently remove the filter, open it, and remove lint.
  • If lint is difficult to remove, soak and wash the filter in water.
  • Attach the filter in its original position.
  • Do not wash laundry without the filter. If the filter is broken, purchase a new one.

Water Supply Filter:

  • If water does not flow smoothly, turn off both hot and cold water faucets.
  • Turn on power, select Hot or Warm, then start. After approx. 40 seconds, turn off power.
  • Loosen the nut and remove the hose. Remove and clean dirt from the filter.
  • Reattach the filter to its original position.
  • Turn on water taps slowly and check for leaks.

Tub Cleaning:

  • Air Dry (90 min): Run once a week without loading laundry to dry the tub.
  • Tub Hygiene: Run once a month to prevent black mould and smell.
    • Turn on both hot and cold water faucets.
    • Without loading laundry, turn on power, select "Tub Hygiene," and start.
    • When the tub is filled with water, pause and put approx. 200 ml of whiten bleach (drum cleaning detergent) into the tub.
    • Close the lid and start. The cleaning ends after approx. 2.5 hours.

Main Unit and Lid:

  • If stained with detergent or softener, wipe with a soft cloth. For heavy soil, use a neutral kitchen detergent. Do not splash water.

Softener Case:

  • Wash with water. To remove, pull the case all the way out, then pull it obliquely upward.

Installation Check:

  • Location: Avoid damp, uneven, unstable, or freezing locations. Keep at least 10 cm away from the wall to minimise noise.
  • Bottom Cover: Attach the bottom cover along the guides and fix with a screw.
  • Drain Hose: Connect the drain hose, slide the hose band, and attach the hose to position A or B with the hose holder and screw. Hook the elbow of the drain hose to the basin, ensuring it's securely hooked. Do not twist, pull out, bend, or put the hose tip under water.
  • Water Supply Hose: Attach one end of the water supply hose to the water supply valve screw, and the other end to the cold/hot water tap. Tighten nuts firmly. Do not make wrong connections.
  • Power Plug and Grounding Wire: Plug into a dedicated household 3-pin AC outlet (10 A, 220 V to 240 V).
  • Level Check: Ensure the washing machine is level by checking the bubble in the centre of the mark. Adjust the adjustable leg knob to eliminate wobble.
  • Trial Operation: Perform a trial operation to check for water leakage, abnormal sounds, or error display.

Troubleshooting and Error Display: The manual provides a comprehensive troubleshooting guide for common issues like time indication problems, no operation, water supply/drainage issues, and irregular spin. Error codes (U11, U12, U13, U14, U99, Hxx) are displayed with corresponding solutions, such as checking the drain hose, closing the lid, distributing clothes evenly, or contacting service.
