To start a wash cycle, first load your laundry into the drum. Close the door and select the desired program using the control knob. Add detergent to the dispenser drawer. Finally, press the start button to begin the cycle.
If the machine does not start, ensure that it is properly plugged in and that the power outlet is functional. Check if the door is closed securely. Verify that the water supply is turned on and check the fuse or circuit breaker if necessary.
To clean the detergent drawer, remove it from the machine by pulling it out while pressing the release clip. Wash the drawer under running water to remove any residue. Use a soft brush to clean the compartments if needed, then dry and reinsert it into the machine.
Excessive vibration may occur if the machine is not level. Check and adjust the feet to ensure stability. Also, ensure that the load is evenly distributed in the drum as imbalances can cause vibrations.
Regularly clean the detergent drawer and filter to prevent clogs. Check the hoses for any leaks or damage and replace them if necessary. Also, run an empty hot wash cycle with a washing machine cleaner to remove any buildup in the drum.
If the machine is not draining, check the drain hose for kinks or blockages. Clean the filter, which might be clogged with lint or debris. Also, ensure that the drain pump is functioning correctly.
Refer to the user manual to identify the meaning of the error code. This will guide you on the troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue, which may involve checking connections, cleaning filters, or resetting the machine.
To prevent odors, leave the door slightly open after each wash to allow the drum to dry. Regularly clean the detergent drawer and run a monthly maintenance wash with a machine cleaner. Also, avoid using excessive detergent which can lead to buildup.
To clean the filter, locate it at the bottom front of the machine. Open the filter cover, unscrew the filter cap, and remove any debris. Rinse the filter under running water, then replace it securely and close the cover.
Distribute clothes evenly around the drum and avoid overloading, which can strain the motor and reduce washing effectiveness. Mix large and small items to help balance the load and improve washing performance.
