FAQs

How do I clean the filter?

Locate the filter at the bottom of the machine. Open the small access door, unscrew the filter, and remove any lint or debris. Rinse the filter under running water and replace it securely.

What kind of detergent can I use?

You can use liquid detergent or powder detergent that is designed for washing machines. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the correct dosage.

How do I use the delay start feature?

Select your desired wash program, then press the 'Delay Start' button. Use the arrow buttons to set the desired delay time (in hours), then press 'Start'.

What is the Anti-Stain cycle?

The Anti-Stain cycle removes common stains without pre-treating clothes. This cycle uses an hour-long, 40°C wash to remove stains.

What is the Steam Hygiene cycle?

The Steam Hygiene cycle uses steam to reduce bacteria and allergens, leaving clothes fresher and softer.

How do I prevent mold or mildew?

After each wash, leave the washing machine door ajar to allow the interior to dry. Run a drum cleaning cycle periodically to prevent buildup.

Where can I find the model number?

The model number (NSWF 946 GG UK) is located on a sticker on the back of the machine, or on the door frame.

What is the warranty period?

Warranty information can be found on the product documentation.
