CARING FOR YOUR WASHER
Cleaning the hose(s)
Each hose has a filter in it, preventing any solid contaminants in the water entering
your washing machine. Occasionally you should disconnect the water inlet hose(s)
where they connect to the faucet(s). Check these for any build up of dirt and wash
this out.
Diaper sanitizers/bleach
Diaper sanitizers and bleach are very corrosive to metal surfaces. DO NOT tip the
contents of a diaper 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.
To replace the transit bolts, 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 wrench 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 ‘Caring for your washer’ section ‘Cleaning the pump filter’).
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 odors. 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 hose(s), and the pump filter, no other
parts are designed to be removed from the machine for cleaning. Do not attempt
to remove any other part of the machine.
WARNING!
Certain internal parts are intentionally not grounded and may present a risk
of electric shock only during servicing. Service Personnel - Do not contact the
following parts while the appliance is energized: electrical valve, drain pump,
NTC and motor control unit.
