To start a wash cycle, load your laundry into the drum, add detergent to the dispenser, select the desired wash program using the control dial, adjust any additional settings as needed, and press the start button.
Ensure the washing machine is properly plugged in and switched on. Check the fuse and circuit breaker. Make sure the door is closed securely and that the water supply is turned on. Also, verify that the start/pause button has been pressed.
To clean the detergent drawer, gently pull it out until it stops, then press the release catch to remove it completely. Rinse the drawer under warm water to remove detergent residue. Use a small brush to clean any hard-to-reach areas before replacing the drawer.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the detergent drawer, inspecting and cleaning the door seal, checking and cleaning the filter, and running a monthly maintenance wash with a washing machine cleaner.
Ensure the washing machine is level. Adjust the feet if necessary. Verify that the load is balanced and not overloaded. Redistribute the load if it is uneven.
Check the drain hose for any kinks or blockages. Inspect the pump filter for clogs and clean it if necessary. Ensure the drain pipe is not blocked.
Press the start/pause button to pause the cycle. Once the machine has stopped, wait for the door lock indicator to turn off before opening the door to add more laundry.
The "F05" error code indicates a problem with the pump or a blockage in the filter. Check and clean the filter and ensure there are no blockages in the drain hose. If the issue persists, contact a qualified technician.
Use the Eco cycle for energy-efficient washing, wash with full loads when possible, and select lower temperature settings. Regular maintenance ensures the machine runs efficiently.
Leave the door and detergent drawer slightly open after each wash to allow air circulation. Use a washing machine cleaner regularly and wipe the door seal to prevent mold and odors.
