Ensure the machine is placed on a flat, stable surface. Connect the water inlet hose to a tap, and ensure the drain hose is properly positioned. Plug the machine into a grounded electrical outlet.
Check if the machine is plugged in and the power switch is on. Ensure the door is fully closed. Verify that there is no power outage and that the circuit breaker hasn't tripped.
Remove the detergent drawer by pulling it out completely. Rinse it under warm water to remove any residue. Use a brush for hard-to-reach areas, then dry and replace it.
Stop the machine and redistribute the load evenly in the drum. Remove some items if necessary, especially if washing heavy or bulky items. Restart the cycle.
Regular maintenance should be performed every 3-6 months, including cleaning the drum, checking hoses for leaks, and ensuring the machine is level.
Check if the drain hose is kinked or clogged. Ensure the drain filter is clean and free of debris. Verify that the plumbing is not blocked.
Ensure the machine is level and stable. Check the drum for any foreign objects. Make sure the load is balanced and not too heavy.
Refer to the user manual for guidance on cycle selection. Use gentle cycles for delicate fabrics and stronger cycles for cotton or heavily soiled clothes.
Consult the user manual for a list of error codes and their meanings. Follow the recommended troubleshooting steps for each specific code.
Some models allow for pausing the cycle to add clothes. Check if the Add Garment feature is available and follow the instructions in the user manual.
