All packaging materials including the foam transport insert (Do not dispose of) & fixing frame located in the base of the machine must be removed before use. 2. Lay the washing machine down on a soft protective surface, remove fixing frame and then fit the base cover using the single screw supplied before repositioning in an upright position. (Note: The ventilation opening on the base of the washing machine must not be obstructed or closed off when being operated as this will result in over heating of the motor and potential for damage). 3. The washing machine is to be located on a flat and stable surface and have adequate access to a suitable water connection, service and operation with protection from direct sunlight. 4. With the washing machine located on a stable surface, the leg adjuster can be used to position all four corners in a flat position. (Note: If the washing machine is not located on a flat and stable surface or is on an range over 2 degrees this will result in vibration during operation and result in the “E3”fault identification – Out Of Balance).

Maintenance Prior to any maintenance or service, please ensure that the power and water have been correctly isolated to the machine. After ending of the WASHING program
Maintenance of CABINET
At the end of a complete washing program, the machine will sound to alert you that the cycle has been complete. Remove the clothes from the machine and insert the foam support if washing is complete.
Use a damp cloth to wipe clean the washing machine. Avoid the use of harsh detergents or chemicals as it may damage the surface of the washing machine.
To reduce the risk of electric shock and water leaking, isolate the water and power supply while not in use.
Cleaning of the lint filter
Cleaning of the water inlet
After each completed washing cycle ensure that the lint filter is cleaned. 1. Remove the lint filter from the tub. 2. Carefully open the filter and remove the lint. 3. Refit the lint filter back into the unit.
Periodically clean the water inlet filter screen as this may be blocked by debris. 1. Turn off the water source and switch on the power. 2. Start the washing machine cycle and continue for 5 seconds (this allows the water in the hose to flow and removes any pressure in the line) then power off the machine. 3. Remove the water inlet hose, take out the water inlet filter screen from the inlet valve, clean the filter, refit the filter and reconnect the water inlet hose.
