FAQs
What is the maximum load for washing and drying?
The maximum wash capacity is 7kg, and the maximum drying capacity is 5kg. For best results when washing and drying consecutively, it is recommended not to exceed the 5kg drying capacity.
How do I use the delay start function?
Select your desired wash programme and options, then press the 'Delay Start' button repeatedly to choose the number of hours you wish to delay the start of the cycle (e.g., 3, 6, 9 hours). Finally, press the 'Start/Pause' button.
Is this washer dryer suitable for a very small apartment?
Yes, its combined functionality makes it space-saving. However, ensure you have adequate plumbing for water supply and drainage, and consider the overall dimensions (85 x 59.5 x 53.5 cm HxWxD).
How often should I clean the filter?
It is recommended to clean the filter at least once a month, or more frequently if you notice drainage issues or the appliance signals a blockage.
What does the Class D energy efficiency rating mean?
Class D indicates the appliance's energy consumption relative to others. Appliances rated higher (e.g., A, B, C) are generally more energy-efficient and may result in lower utility bills compared to Class D models.
Can I wash delicate items in this machine?
Yes, the machine features programmes specifically designed for delicates, as well as variable temperature settings, allowing you to adjust the heat to protect sensitive fabrics.
Troubleshooting
Appliance will not start
Check if the power cord is securely plugged in, ensure the door is fully closed, and verify that a programme has been selected and the start button pressed. Check your home's circuit breaker.
Excessive vibration or noise
Ensure the appliance is level and stable. Remove any transit bolts if they were not removed during initial setup. Check that the load is balanced within the drum.
Water not draining
Check if the drain hose is kinked or blocked. Clean the filter at the bottom of the appliance for any obstructions.
Clothes are still wet after drying cycle
Ensure the drying load does not exceed the 5kg capacity. Check that the correct drying programme was selected. Clean the filter and condenser area (if applicable) as lint buildup can affect drying efficiency.
