To ensure optimal cleaning, evenly distribute clothes around the drum without overloading. Place larger items first and balance with smaller items. Avoid packing clothes tightly to allow proper water flow and agitation.
If the washing machine is not draining, check the drain hose for kinks or clogs. Ensure the drain filter is clean and free of debris. If the problem persists, inspect the pump for obstructions and ensure it is functioning correctly.
Remove the detergent dispenser by pulling it out until it stops, then pressing the release lever. Wash the compartments with warm soapy water and a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly and dry before reinserting.
Perform a monthly cleaning of the drum using a washing machine cleaner or a mixture of vinegar and baking soda. Regularly clean the detergent drawer and door seal. Inspect hoses and connections every 6 months for signs of wear.
Ensure the washing machine is level by adjusting the feet. Avoid overloading the drum and make sure clothes are evenly distributed. Check if the transit bolts have been removed if the machine is newly installed.
Refer to the user manual for specific error codes and their meanings. Common solutions include checking water supply, ensuring doors are closed, and resetting the machine by unplugging it for a few minutes.
After each wash, leave the door open to allow the drum to dry. Regularly clean the door seal and detergent drawer. Use a washing machine cleaner monthly to eliminate residue and odors.
Ensure the drum is empty. Add a washing machine cleaner to the detergent drawer. Select the Tub Clean cycle and start the machine. This cycle will remove detergent buildup and sanitize the drum.
Check if the machine is plugged in and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Ensure the door is fully closed and the Start/Pause button is pressed. Verify that the water supply is turned on.
Use the Delicate cycle and a mesh laundry bag for extra protection. Wash similar fabrics together and use a gentle detergent. Avoid overloading the machine to ensure gentle agitation.
