To start a wash cycle, first load your laundry into the drum. Add detergent to the dispenser drawer. Select the desired wash program by turning the program selector knob. Adjust any additional settings such as temperature or spin speed if needed. Press the start button to begin the cycle.
Check if the washing machine is properly plugged into a power outlet. Ensure the socket is functional by testing with another device. Verify that the door is securely closed, as the machine won't start otherwise. If the problem persists, check the fuse or circuit breaker.
To clean the filter, first ensure the machine is off and unplugged. Locate the filter panel at the bottom front of the machine. Open the panel and unscrew the filter cap. Remove any debris or lint, rinse the filter under running water, and replace it securely.
An E03 error code indicates a drainage problem. Check for blockages in the drain hose or pump filter. Ensure the drain hose is not kinked or elevated too high. Clean the pump filter if necessary. If the issue continues, seek professional assistance.
Ensure the washing machine is level by adjusting the feet. Avoid overloading the machine and distribute laundry evenly in the drum. Check that the transit bolts have been removed if the machine is newly installed.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the detergent drawer and filter monthly, checking and cleaning the door seal to prevent mold, and running an empty hot wash cycle with a cup of white vinegar to clean the drum every couple of months.
Select the desired wash program and settings. Press the delay start button repeatedly until the desired delay time is displayed. The machine will automatically start the wash cycle after the set delay time has elapsed.
Ensure the cycle has completely finished and the 'Door Locked' indicator is off. If the door remains locked, turn off the machine and wait a few minutes. If it still won't open, try running a short cycle and attempt reopening after it completes.
Leave the door slightly ajar after washes to allow the drum to dry. Clean the door seal and detergent drawer regularly. Use a washing machine cleaner monthly to eliminate residue and odors.
Check all hoses for tightness and signs of wear. Inspect the door seal for damage or debris. Ensure the detergent drawer is not overfilled. If leaks persist, contact a service technician to inspect the internal components.
