Maintenance Features:
Regular maintenance is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of the SHARP ES-H10B. The manual highlights several key maintenance tasks:
-
Drying Filter Cleaning:
- Frequency: Clean every time after drying or if error code "U04" appears.
- Location: The drying filter is located at the top of the machine, accessible by lifting a cover. It consists of a removable mesh filter that collects lint and debris during the drying process.
- Importance: Prevents blockages, ensures efficient drying, and avoids potential fire hazards.
-
Water-Drain Filter Cleaning:
- Frequency: Clean every 2 weeks or if error code "E03" appears.
- Location: The water-drain filter is located at the bottom front of the machine, typically behind a small access panel. It is designed to catch small items and lint before they enter the drain pump.
- Procedure: To clean, open the access panel, unscrew or unclip the filter, and remove any accumulated debris.
- Warning: "Warning: water may overflow when opening!" This indicates that residual water might be present in the filter housing, so users should place a shallow container underneath to catch any spills.
- Importance: Prevents drain pump blockages, ensures proper water drainage, and avoids unpleasant odors.
-
Door-Packing Wiping:
- Frequency: Wipe every time after washing.
- Location: The rubber gasket (door-packing) around the door opening.
- Importance: Prevents mold and mildew buildup, which can cause odors and damage the gasket. It also ensures a good seal during operation.
-
Clean Filters Regularly: The manual explicitly states, "Clean filters regularly see back page," emphasizing the importance of filter maintenance. This refers to both the drying and water-drain filters.
Important Technical Specifications (Inferred from controls):
- Load Capacity: The "Quick 2kg" program suggests a minimum load capacity of 2kg for quick cycles. The overall capacity is not explicitly stated but is likely higher.
- Water Usage: The "water flow" and "Auto" settings, along with various wash/rinse options, indicate a system designed for efficient water management.
- Power: The presence of "Power on" and "Power off" buttons, along with "電源" (Power supply) on the display, confirms it is an electrically powered appliance.
- Safety Features: "Child-lock" and "door-lock" functions are integrated for user safety.
The SHARP ES-H10B is a versatile and user-friendly washing machine that combines effective cleaning with convenient drying options, supported by clear instructions for both operation and essential maintenance.
