On starting the machine, the door will automatic-
ally be locked, the drain valve closed, the hot and
cold water valves opened and the pre-wash will
be carried out as previously described, where-
after the main wash is started.
As the main wash is started, the drain valve
closes, detergent is admitted and mixed hot and
cold water is filled to the level determined by the
level control.
On reaching this level, the water valves are
closed and the wash motor starts its reversing
rotation.
The water level controlled machine will now wash
the fabrics for six minutes. The machine is then
emptied.
Cold water is filled for the first rinse which lasts
one minute, followed by extraction for 30
seconds.
Fabric softener is automatically admitted during
the third rinse. The fabrics are rinsed with cold
water for two minutes followed by a extraction of
one minute duration.
