5 Installation instructions 3 EN Accessories Please check you received the following accessories with your Fisher & Paykel washer. You will find them inside the drum: 2 x Inlet hoses 1 x Drain hose guide 1 x Installation instructions and User guide 1 x Spanner 1 x Installation leaflet (attached to the top of the washer) 1 x Inlet valve cap Unpacking To ensure the best performance from your new washer please follow the instructions below. Removing the packaging 1 Remove the outer packaging (including the polystyrene packer and plastic wrapping). All packaging must be removed prior to use. Ensure these materials are kept out of reach of children. Note: a small amount of water may be seen inside the packaging and inside the washer. This is the result of factory testing and is normal. 2 Tilt the machine backwards and walk it off the base one foot at a time. Not doing so may cause damage to your floor and washer. 3 Remove all packaging and accessories from inside the drum. Removing the transit bolts The clothes washer is fitted with 4 transit bolts at the rear to avoid damage during transportation. Important! The 4 transit bolts MUST be removed prior to operation of the machine. Failure to remove these will result in damage to the machine. To remove the bolts: 1 Use a spanner or socket to unscrew and remove all four transit bolts at the back of the washer (Figure 2, C ). 2 Pull the black rubber grommets to remove the bolt, grommet and white plastic spacers from the machine. Keep the transit bolts in case they are required for future transit of the machine. Never transport the machine without the transit bolts properly fixed in place. 3 Cover the bolt holes with the white plastic plugs which are attached to the machine and located near each hole (Figure 2, P ). Push to clip into place. Fig.2 Removing the transit safety bolts

6 EN 4 Installation instructions Location Install the machine on a solid and level floor surface ensuring it has at least 20 mm clearance on each side. The washer must not be installed on any textured floor coverings (eg carpet, rugs). Levelling the machine It is IMPORTANT to level the machine to ensure good spin performance, and to minimise noise, vibrations and wear and tear on the washer. 1 Before positioning the machine in its final position, check that the machine is level, front to back and side to side. 2 Manoeuvre the product into its final position (we suggest a minimum clearance of 20 mm each side). 3 Use a spirit level to check that the machine is correctly level. If needed, pull the machine out and wind the feet up or down to correctly level the machine. 4 Using the spanner provided, tighten the lock nuts against the base of the machine to lock the feet in position. Fig.3 Locking the feet Connecting to the water supply Inlet hoses Important! New hose sets provided with the washer should be used to connect the washer to the water mains. Old hose sets should not be re-used. We recommend the inlet hoses are changed every 5 years. WARNING: Failure to do so may result in a flood and damage to property. 1 Connect the straight ends of the inlet hoses to the taps and the elbow ends to the corresponding machine inlet valves. The hot valve is colour coded orange to make this easier. Make sure there are no kinks in the hoses. 2 Turn the taps on and check for leaks. Check for leaks again after 24 hours. Important! Straight (tap) end Fig.4 Inlet hose ends Elbow (machine) end The hot water temperature should not exceed 65 C and the cold water temperature not exceed 35 C. Temperatures above these may cause the machine to fault or cause damage to the machine.

7 Installation instructions 5 EN If you have an uncontrolled water heating source (eg a wet back or solar heating system) you should fit a Hot N Safe Valve. This will ensure the hot water temperature remains within safe limits. Hot N Safe Valves available are: RMC TVA 50HF RMC TVA 75HFS Adjustable between 35 C 55 C RMC TVA 50HP For instantaneous gas hot water supply Water supply requirements: Inlet water pressure: Maximum 1 MPa (150 psi), Minimum 30 kpa (4.5 psi) Inlet water flow rate: Minimum 6 litres / minute Cold supply only: If you only have a cold water supply, the inlet valve cap (blanking cap) which came with your washer must be connected to the hot inlet valve. The cap prevents water leaking out of the hot valve. This appliance incorporates backflow protection complying with AS No further backflow protection is required for connection to the water supply. Note: your washer has an internal heater to heat water. If you do not connect a hot water inlet hose, your washer will automatically recognise there is no hot water supply and its internal heater will heat the cold water to the required cycle temperature. Draining Drain hose placement 1 To guide the drain hose over the tub or standpipe the hose guide must be fitted to the drain hose. The height of the standpipe or tub should be between mm. 2 Secure the hose guide so it cannot become dislodged from the standpipe or tub. Important! If the drain hose is placed on the ground or if the standpipe or tub is less than 800 mm high, the washing machine will continuously drain while being filled (siphon). Pull hose through guide Standpipe mm (20 mm) maximum Fig.5 Fitting the drain hose guide Regularly check that your standpipe or tub is free from lint or other obstructions, which may affect how your machine works or may cause flooding. The drain hoses should be checked from time to time and replaced if any damage (eg wear, cuts, bulges, kinks, leaks, etc) is found. Do not bend the drain hose sharply, as this may cause it to split. In multi-storey apartments or any upper floor, the machine should be installed on a floor equipped with a drain. Draining must comply with local by-laws.

8 EN 6 Installation instructions Electrical connection 1 This appliance must be connected to a 220 V 240 V, 50 Hz, sinusoidal, 10 A electrical supply. 2 Uncoil the power cord, remove and discard the plastic pin cover and plug into a wall socket. 3 Connect the appliance to an earthed outlet protected by a fuse of suitable capacity. Check the power cord for damage and make sure it is not squashed or twisted when installing the washer. Always remove the power cord from a socket by the plug, not by the cord. Important! If you are using an extension cord or a portable electrical outlet device (eg multi-socket outlet box), ensure that it is positioned so that it does not come into contact with water or moisture. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN DEATH OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Do not touch or operate the machine with wet hands or with bare-feet. A damaged power cord must be replaced by a Fisher & Paykel Authorised Repairer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard. The appliance must not be operated until it is repaired, as there is risk of electric shock. Do not operate this machine if it has been damaged during transport. Contact your Fisher & Paykel Dealer or Fisher & Paykel Authorised Repairer. Spare parts Available from your Fisher & Paykel Dealer or a Fisher & Paykel Authorised Repairer.

This is to check that your washer is installed correctly and that it is functioning correctly prior to use. 1 Turn your washer on by pressing the POWER button. 2 Select the QUICK cycle. Ensure the drum is empty and the door closed. 3 Touch the START / PAUSE button. The machine will start to fill. Observe the machine for any problems (eg leaking from the hoses, excess noise or vibrations). The washer will beep and display any faults on the screen if there are any problems. Refer to pages 29 to Wait until you see water in the bottom of the drum. 5 Touch START / PAUSE to stop the cycle, then press POWER to turn the machine off. 6 Press POWER again, select the SPIN cycle and touch START / PAUSE. Check the drain hose is firmly secured to the standpipe or tub. Observe that the machine pumps out the water, and spins. Important! If there are any problems, you must address these before proceeding with normal use. The washer will automatically turn off at the end of the cycle if there are no problems. Clothes washer safety This clothes washer is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are supervised or given instructions on how to use the washer by someone responsible for their safety. The washer should only be used for washing and rinsing of textiles where this is indicated on the care label. The door will be locked from the start of the cycle until the cycle is complete for safety reasons. It is possible to open the door during the cycle under certain conditions (refer to page 15). Never force the door open. Keep children away from the washer while it is in operation. Supervise children to ensure they do not play with the washer or climb inside the drum. Do not touch the glass part of the door during a cycle as the door can become hot. Do not open the detergent dispenser during the cycle as hot water may come out of it. The only user-removable parts of the washer are the inlet hoses, detergent dispenser and the pump filter. No other parts are designed to be removed by anyone other than a Fisher & Paykel Authorised Repairer. When disposing of the washer, it is recommended that the door is removed to avoid children getting trapped inside, and that the electrical cable is cut off close to the washer.

11 Before you do your first wash 9 EN Before you start, it is a good idea to go through the following checklist: 1 Have the packaging and transit bolts been removed? 2 Is the drain hose threaded through the U bend (with no more than 20 mm extended) and hooked into your standpipe or tub? 3 Is the hot hose connected to the hot valve (colour-coded orange)? Is the cold hose connected to the cold valve (colour-coded white)? Have the taps been turned on? 4 Is the machine correctly levelled, feet are locked and cabinet corners clear of the floor and walls? 5 Has the power cord been connected to an appropriate power supply and the power turned on? 6 Have you performed the installation test cycle? 7 We recommend you complete your first cycle with a half-load amount of detergent and without a load in order to remove any residues remaining in the machine from the manufacturing process. Important! You must ensure all 4 transit bolts have been removed from your washer before you start using it. If the transit bolts are not removed, they will damage your washer and YOUR WARRANTY WILL BE COMPROMISED.

16 EN 14 WashSmart and QuickSmart controls SmartTouch Control Dial The SmartTouch Control Dial provides easy and efficient wash cycle selection. As you rotate the dial, the icon of the wash cycle selected will be illuminated, along with the default settings for that cycle on the right side of the control panel. Fig.12 SmartTouch Control Dial SmartTouch buttons The smooth, easy clean buttons enable easy selection of options with lights clearly showing the selections you are making. Digital display screen Fig.13 SmartTouch buttons The digital display screen provides feedback on how long the wash cycle has to go. If you have programmed a DELAY START, the time remaining till the cycle will start will be displayed here, along with any messages to help you with the overall running of your washer (eg user warnings). Time to go Your washer displays approximately how many minutes the cycle you are running has remaining, so that you can tell at a glance when your washing will be finished. Please be aware that a number of factors can influence the overall cycle time, eg the water flow rate, water pressure, whether hot water is being used from the tap or the water is heated by the internal heater, load size, cycle and option selections. Therefore cycle times will vary. Unexpected factors in a wash cycle (eg out of balance, oversudsing) can lengthen the cycle time. The time remaining is constantly updated taking these factors into account, which may mean the time displayed for the cycle becomes longer than was initially estimated. Fig.14 Digital display screen Fig.15 Time to go Progress lights The progress lights indicate what part of the cycle the washer is currently on (wash, rinse or spin). All three lights are on at the beginning of the cycle. The light for the current part of the cycle flashes, and each one goes out when that part of the cycle is complete. Fig.16 Progress lights Keylock mode Keylock can be used to lock the buttons on your washer. This will avoid accidental button pushes. For more detail please refer to page 24. Fig.17 Keylock mode

17 Safety features 15 EN Door lock The door of your washer is locked once you touch START / PAUSE until the machine beeps at the end of the cycle, ensuring safety for you and your family while your machine is operating. To unlock the door during the cycle You can open the door to add or remove items during the wash simply by touching the START / PAUSE button. Note: the door will remain locked if the temperature inside the washer is above 60 C and / or the water level is above the bottom of the door seal (a warning will be displayed in these circumstances, refer to page 30). Simply touch START / PAUSE and the door will automatically unlock if the conditions inside the washer are safe (the START / PAUSE button and TIME REMAINING on the screen will flash). Open the door and remove or add garments. Close the door and touch START / PAUSE to resume the cycle. Add a Garment (WashSmart only) The ADD A GARMENT function can be used to interrupt the cycle to add or remove a garment at anytime during the wash (as long as the wash temperature selected for the cycle is lower than 60 C) by draining water from the machine to a level where the door can be opened, if necessary. Refer to page 23 for more information. Opening the door during a power failure If there is a power failure during a wash cycle your washer will stop and the door will remain locked. You can unlock the washer door to remove your clothes by opening the pump filter cover at the bottom right of your washer. Simply place a coin or key in the slot and tilt it upwards to lever the cover open, then pull the door release tab. Note: Do not attempt to do this if the water level in the washer is above the level of the door. When power is restored you will need to restart your machine by simply pressing the POWER button. The washer will remember where in the cycle it was up to. Door release tab Fig.18 Manual door opening mechanism Your washer also has the following protective measures: Flood protection turns off valves and turns pump on if a flood condition is detected. Out-of-balance protection stops and redistributes the load if an unbalanced load condition is sensed, and / or slows the spin speed to compensate. Excess suds protection pauses for 10 minutes to allow suds to break down before continuing the cycle.

18 EN 16 Sorting and loading When preparing your wash load there are some important things to consider: Sorting Sort items according to colour, fabric type, and soil type. Wash fine, delicate fabrics separately from thick, heavy fabrics. Always separate coloured items from whites, especially when they are new. Colour run could be an issue if you wash items at higher temperatures. Some soils, like mud and blood are best washed in cold water. Oily soils (eg some foods and marks on shirt collars) are best washed in warm water. The following are recommendations for what cycles and settings you may wish to wash different items on, and suggestions for special wash requirements. Items / Wash requirements Suggested cycle & options Suggested temperature Towels Everyday 30 C or 40 C Sheets, pillowcases Everyday, 1100 rpm spin 30 C or 40 C Bulky items doonas, duvets, Bulky* 30 C or 40 C sleeping bags Shirts, pants, other creasables Easy Iron, 800 rpm 30 C or 40 C Woollens, silks Handwash*, 500 rpm 30 C Delicates, fine fabrics Delicate, or Handwash* 30 C Jeans Everyday or Heavy 30 C or 40 C Highly coloured items Everyday Cold or 30 C Whites, cotton items Cottons 40 C or 60 C Have sensitive skin or require Allergy*, Rinse+, 1100 rpm 40 C extra rinsing? Asthma / allergies Allergy*, Rinse+ 60 C Lightly soiled items Quick 30 C Muddy, sandy or linty items Everyday, Pre Wash and Cold Rinse+ Smelly washer Drum Clean 90 C * Wash cycle available on WashSmart models only.

19 Sorting and loading 17 EN Before you load Check pockets for items that could damage your clothes or get caught in the washer. Close zippers, hooks and eyes, and other fastenings (ie fasten the opening of duvet / doona covers), and remove loose bra wires. All these can damage both your washer and your clothes. Place delicate items, such as lingerie, in a mesh laundry bag before placing in the machine. Pre-treat any stains, taking care not to spray pre-treaters on your washer as they can cause damage to the plastic surfaces. Loading Your washer will be more efficient when washing larger loads, so try to collect enough items to loosely fill the drum when the items are dry. Important! Do not overload your washing machine beyond its rated capacity. Please do not under any circumstances wash an electric blanket in your washer. Do not wash curtains in this washer, as sunlight makes them brittle and they may disintegrate during washing.

20 EN 18 Detergent and fabric softener Detergent type Your WashSmart or QuickSmart washer requires low sudsing detergent to prevent oversudsing problems. Low sudsing detergent comes in powder, liquid or pod form and is labelled Front Loading, Low Suds, High Efficiency or HE. Using top loading detergent in your front loader washer may lead to excessive suds formation, which will lengthen the cycle time as the machine waits for the suds to dissolve. Where do I put my detergent? Powdered or liquid detergent is added to the main wash detergent compartment on the left side of the dispensing drawer marked with a 2. As the machine fills, some water is flushed through this compartment to deliver a detergent solution into the drum. Pods Detergent pods are a no mess alternative to powdered or liquid detergent. They must be placed at the back of the drum prior to loading your clothes. This will ensure they are activated quickly in the wash. Do not place pods in the detergent dispenser drawer. If you wish to use the PRE WASH option, liquid or powdered detergent must be placed in the pre wash detergent compartment on the right side of the drawer, marked with a 1. When you select PRE WASH, the pre wash compartment is flushed at the start of the cycle. Fig.19 Detergent in the pre wash compartment Fig.20 Pre wash option Important! If you select the PRE WASH you cannot use liquid detergent in the main wash detergent compartment. You must use powdered detergent for the main wash. Make sure the detergent dispenser draw is completely closed before starting the cycle.

21 Detergent and fabric softener 19 EN How much detergent? The correct detergent dosage varies depending on the amount of soil in your load, the size of the load and the water quality, so getting the correct dose takes some trial and error. Use the instructions stated on the detergent label as a guide, then alter the dosage according to the results. If you overdose, you will get over foaming issues, but if you under-dose you will get poor performance and over time your washer will start to smell as scum builds up inside it. Detergent advice 1 If your washer smells you are probably not using enough detergent for the soil level in your loads. Run a DRUM CLEAN cycle and either buy a better quality detergent or use a higher dose. If you are using an Eco detergent, alternate the use of this with a mainstream detergent. 2 Add the detergent BEFORE starting the cycle, close the dispenser and do not open it while the cycle is running. 3 If you find foam leaking from your washer, check you are using a low sudsing or front loader type detergent and check the quantity you are using against the detergent manufacturers recommendation. You may need to reduce the amount you are using. Fabric softener Fabric softener is added to the middle compartment of the dispenser marked with a. The washer will automatically flush the softener during the rinse. If you wish to use fabric softener we recommend to: 1 Use it sparingly. Measure it carefully and do not use more than 25 mls (1/2 cap) (some thicker varieties may need diluting). 2 Clean your dispenser regularly. 3 Clean your machine regularly using the DRUM CLEAN cycle. 4 Complete wash cycles at a wash temperature of 40 C or above at regular intervals (eg every 5th wash) as washing in cold water increases the chance of scrud occurring (see below). Note: if you fill beyond the MAX mark, the fabric softener will be dispensed into the bowl prematurely and contribute to scrud. Scrud Scrud is the name of the waxy build-up that can occur within any washer when fabric softener comes in contact with detergent. This build-up is not brought about by a fault in the machine. If scrud is allowed to build up in the machine it can result in stains on clothes and an unpleasant smell in your washer.

If you wash a particularly dirty load, we recommend putting the washer through a RINSE cycle once the cycle has finished and the load has been removed, to clean out any remnants from that cycle and to prevent contamination of the next loads that are washed.

24 EN 22 Wash cycle options All wash cycles default to the recommended options for that cycle based on the average expected load to be washed using that cycle. You can vary the options (eg WASH TEMP, SPIN SPEED) to create your desired cycle. Note: some options are not available on some cycles, for clothes care reasons, or because the option is not appropriate for the cycle. To change a wash option or options you have selected after a cycle has started, touch START / PAUSE and select your new setting, then touch START / PAUSE again to resume the cycle with the new setting or settings. Note: some options may not be available for selection under certain conditions and after particular stages of the cycle have passed. Wash Temp Your washer offers five wash temperatures: Cold 30 C 40 C 60 C 90 C Simply touch the WASH TEMP button to increase or decrease the wash temperature. The washer will fill with both hot and cold water to achieve the selected wash temperature. If required the washer will heat the water to the selected temperature. Some temperatures are not available on some cycles as a safeguard for your clothes (eg 60 C and 90 C on the HANDWASH cycle). Spin Speed Your WashSmart washer offers four spin speeds: 500 rpm, 800 rpm, 1100 rpm and 1400 rpm, plus an additional NO SPIN option. Your QuickSmart washer offers three spin speeds: 500 rpm, 800 rpm, 1100 rpm, plus an additional NO SPIN option. Simply increase or decrease your spin speed by touching the SPIN SPEED button. Selecting NO SPIN will end the cycle after the rinse, allowing you to remove items you wish to drip dry. Note: the washer will complete the default wash and rinse spins for the cycle; only the final spin will not be completed. If you have removed the items you wish to drip dry and there are items remaining in the load that you would like to proceed to spin, press POWER and select the SPIN cycle. If necessary modify the spin speed to best care for your load (ie spin delicate items at 500 rpm for best garment care). Soil Level (WashSmart only) The SOIL LEVEL option lets you adjust the wash to suit the amount of soil in your load. For example, select HEAVY for dirty clothes; for items that are only lightly soiled, select LIGHT. This adjusts the wash time accordingly to give the load the right amount of agitation to remove the soil.

25 Wash cycle options 23 EN Wash Boost Pre Wash For extra dirty loads you can perform a PRE WASH. Your washer will start the wash with a short wash in cool water to remove excess soil. After this the machine will drain and then fill at the selected temperature for the main wash. If you use the PRE WASH option, liquid or powdered detergent needs to be placed in the correct detergent compartment. The pre wash compartment is on the right hand side of the drawer, marked 1. When you select PRE WASH, the compartment is flushed at the start of the cycle. The detergent for the main wash must be a powder, and should be placed in the compartment marked 2. Simply touch the WASH BOOST button and select PRE WASH when choosing your wash options. Note: PRE WASH cannot be selected after a wash cycle has been started, ie if you touch START / PAUSE and try to select PRE WASH it will be unavailable. PRE WASH must be selected at the start of the cycle. Rinse+ If you have a particularly dirty load, or you have sensitive skin and wish to give your clothes an extra rinse, select RINSE+ from the WASH BOOST options. Your load will undergo an extra rinse to get rid of any residual detergent or soil in the items. Note: RINSE+ will not be available if the ECO option has been selected. Options Wrinkle Free (WashSmart only) We recommend you remove the clothes from the washer immediately after the completion of the cycle to minimise wrinkling and creasing of items and to prevent dye run. However, if you will not be present at the end of the wash you can select WRINKLE FREE. When WRINKLE FREE is selected, the washer will tumble the clothes once every 15 minutes for up to 12 hours after the cycle has finished. The WRINKLE FREE light and START / PAUSE button will flash, and the washer will beep at regular intervals to remind you to remove your load. To remove the load during this phase, simply press the START / PAUSE button. Eco Use the ECO option to save water and energy. Selecting ECO will reduce the wash temperature slightly and alter the wash time. Note: this option will not be available if PRE WASH has been selected. If you wish to, you can select both the PRE WASH and RINSE+ WASH BOOST options to perform on the same cycle. Likewise, you can select ECO and WRINKLE FREE to perform on the same cycle. Touch the appropriate button until both options are selected. Repeat to deselect an option. For clothes care and performance reasons not all options may be available on some cycles. Add a Garment (WashSmart only) The ADD A GARMENT option enables you to add or remove items during the wash stage of the cycle, under certain conditions. Once the ADD A GARMENT button is touched, the START / PAUSE button and TIME REMAINING will flash. Wait until you hear the door unlock. Open the door and add or remove items. Close the door and touch START / PAUSE to restart the cycle. The ADD A GARMENT button will only operate during the wash part of the cycle and when the temperature selected is lower than 60 C. ADD A GARMENT can be used when the total wash volume has been reached, as your washer will drain the water to a lower level if necessary so the door can be opened.

26 EN 24 Wash cycle options Keylock This option enables you to deactivate the buttons on the display panel, except for the POWER and KEYLOCK buttons. This prevents accidental button presses. To turn Keylock mode ON or OFF, when the washer is powered on: Touch and hold the KEYLOCK button for 2 seconds. Note: when activated, the light above the KEYLOCK button is illuminated. If Keylock mode is activated and the machine is powered off: To turn your washer on, press the POWER button, then touch and hold the KEYLOCK button for two seconds to turn KEYLOCK off. Select your wash cycle, options and then START / PAUSE to start the cycle. To turn the washer off at anytime when KEYLOCK is activated, simply touch the POWER button. Delay Start The DELAY START option enables you to delay the start of the wash cycle from between 5 minutes and 12 hours. Times you can select are 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 hour, then hourly up to 12 hours. This can be useful to time your washing to finish when you arrive home from work, or to start once you have finished in the shower. Certain stain removers also require you to spray them on then leave for several minutes, before washing. Your washer will wait for the selected time then start without you having to wait or remember to start your machine. To programme a DELAY START time, simply touch the MORE button to increase the delay time and LESS button to decrease the time or turn DELAY START off. Touch START / PAUSE to confirm your selection and start the countdown. Once started, the time will countdown on the digital display panel in 1 minute increments, the DELAY START light will flash and the START / PAUSE light will stop flashing and turn on solid. Note: if you hold the MORE button down, the time displayed on the screen will increase after every half a second (more convenient than touching the button repetitively). To remove a delay start time once it is counting down, simply touch START / PAUSE, then touch the LESS button to decrease the time to zero. Touch START / PAUSE to start the cycle immediately. Note: we suggest that you avoid using DELAY START for damp, non-colourfast items as this may cause dye run to occur. We also recommend you use powder detergent when you use the DELAY START function.

27 Customising wash cycles 25 EN After using your washer a few times you may discover there are some wash options you prefer for some cycles.

28 EN 26 Caring for your washer When you have finished using your washer Unplug the machine from the power socket. Wipe around the door and in the rubber gasket to remove any remaining water and foreign matter. Turn off the taps to prevent the chance of flooding should a hose burst. Cleaning your QuickSmart or WashSmart Before you start cleaning your washer, ensure that it is disconnected from the power (ie unplug the machine from the power socket). Cleaning the control panel and outer surfaces of the washer Use a soft damp cloth to wipe all surfaces, then wipe dry. Avoid using chemical or scouring cleaners, as these will damage the paint and plastic surfaces of your washer. Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer Wipe out the detergent dispenser drawer with a damp cloth. Clean it regularly, especially if you use fabric softener. To remove the drawer, pull it open, push down on the blue tab in the fabric softener compartment (labelled PUSH ) and pull out. Rinse it out under warm water and replace. Cleaning the inside of your washer It is important that you regularly clean the inside of your machine using the DRUM CLEAN cycle. After 100 cycles your washer will flash the DRUM CLEAN cycle icon every time you turn your washer on to remind you to do this. If your washer starts to smell this is a sign that you should complete a DRUM CLEAN cycle. We recommend that you do not have any items in the washer when you run this cycle. Cleaning steps 1 Add approximately 2 full scoops of a good quality powdered detergent directly into the main wash detergent compartment of the dispenser drawer (marked 2 ). Or use a drum cleaning product specifically designed for front loading washing machines (follow the manufacturer s instructions). Fig.21 DRUM CLEAN cycle 2 Press POWER to turn your machine on and select the DRUM CLEAN cycle. 3 Touch START / PAUSE to start the cycle (refer to pages 20 and 21 for cycle details). Cleaning the drum and the door Use a soft damp cloth to wipe the door, cleaning any water marks or residue off it. Wipe the rubber ring around the door. Remove any items or lint accumulating in the bottom of the ring catchment and wipe out any water accumulated here. If this is not cleaned out, unpleasant odours will develop. If the drum has any residual dirt or lint stuck to it, remove this and wipe the drum clean. Do not leave any metal objects in the drum as these may rust and cause staining. Do not allow children to swing on or place any weight on the door when open as this may cause damage.

29 Caring for your washer 27 EN Cleaning the pump filter The pump has a filter to trap foreign objects that enter the washer along with clothing. The pump filter can be accessed from the front of the washer. To clean the filter: This should be cleaned out approximately once a month. 1 Turn the power off and unplug the machine. 2 Use a coin or key to open the filter cover. Place the edge of the coin into the slot and tilt upwards whilst levering the cover open. 3 Unhook the pump outlet hose and pull it out (about 150 mm). Remove the plug and allow any water (approximately 250 mls) to drain into a shallow dish. 4 After the draining process is complete, replace the plug into the hose and refit the hose back into the housing. 5 Remove the filter by turning anticlockwise. Clean and rinse under a tap. 6 Replace the filter by turning clockwise until the white mark on the filter is in line with the white line on the pump housing. Fig.22 Drain residual water Fig.23 Replacing filter white marks are in line white marks are not in line Correct Incorrect Fig.24 White mark on filter must be in line with white line on pump housing 7 Close the filter cover.

30 EN 28 Caring for your washer Cleaning the hoses Each hose has a filter in it, preventing any solid contaminants in the water entering your washing machine. Occasionally you should unscrew the water inlet hoses where they connect to the taps, check these for any build-up of dirt and wash this out. Nappy sanitisers / bleach Nappy sanitisers and bleach are very corrosive to metal surfaces. DO NOT tip the contents of a nappy bucket into your machine. Rinse and wring items out thoroughly before placing them in the machine. Moving your washer If you need to move your washer a considerable distance (eg moving house), remember to replace the transit bolts before moving it. These will protect internal components of the washer from damage. Pull out the bolt-hole covers in the back of the machine. Push the transit bolt rubber grommets and plastic spaces into the hole left and tighten it with the spanner provided with the product. Make sure any water in the washer is drained out. This can be done by cleaning out the pump filter (refer to page 27). Important! Leave the door to your washer open when it is not in use to allow the washer to dry out, otherwise it will develop unpleasant odours. When leaving the door open like this, it is extremely important that children and pets are kept away from the washer so they cannot be accidentally trapped inside it. Aside from the detergent dispenser, water hoses, and the pump filter, nothing is designed to be removed from the machine for cleaning. Do not attempt to remove any other part of the machine.
