Frequently Asked Questions - WFN9012 HISENSE

How to remove the transport bolts?

Unscrew the 4 bolts using the supplied key, push them inward then remove them. Install the protective caps until you hear a 'click'. Keep the bolts for future transport.

How to connect the water inlet hose?

Hand-tighten the blue marked hose onto the cold water tap (and the red one onto the hot water if applicable). Tighten the nut, open the tap and check for leaks. Use a pressure-resistant hose (min 1000 kPa).

Can I use an extension cord?

No, do not use multi-sockets or extension cords. The machine must be plugged directly into a grounded socket suitable for the voltage (220-240 V, 10 A).

How to adjust the feet to stabilize the machine?

Loosen the lock nut with the key, slightly lift the machine and turn the foot to adjust the height. Use a level. Then tighten the lock nut in the opposite direction.

Where to install the lower cover?

If supplied, stick the acoustic foam onto the bottom plate. Tilt the machine to 30-40°, attach the cover by aligning the 'pump' part with the machine's pump. It reduces noise.

How to connect the drain hose?

Unhook the hose from the clip, connect it to the siphon or hang it in a sink in a U shape. Install the U-shaped hose at the end. Ensure it is not kinked and secure it.

What to do if the water inlet hose is too short?

Replace it with a hose of the same type, resistant to pressure (min 1000 kPa, certified EN 50084). Do not extend it with another hose without a clip.

Can the machine be used without the lower cover?

Yes, the machine can operate without the lower cover. It serves to reduce noise and can be installed later after advice from a specialist.

How to maintain the water hoses?

Regularly check for cracks or wear. Replace if necessary. Tighten connections if needed. Do not kink the hoses.

Can I connect the machine to a pressureless water heater?

No, the appliance must not be connected to a mixing tap of a pressureless water heater. Use a standard pressurized water supply.

BEFORE USING THE WASHER, PLEASE REMOVE TRANSPORT BOLTS!

Important: Transport bolts which are not removed can cause damage to the appliance.

①

Screw off all transportation bolts for approx. 30mm with wrench following the direction of arrow shown (not fully screw it off).

(2)

transportation bolt.

(3)

Pull out transportation bolt together with rubber part and plastic part.

(4)

To ensure safety and reduce noise, you should install the transportation bolt cover supplied with the unit (see the annex accompanying the unit). Lean and place the transportation bolt into hole and press it following the shown

direction until it clicks.

Important: Keep the transport bolts and the wrench for future transporting of the appliance and in this case refit the transport bolts in reverse order.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE FEET

The appliance must be installed on a solid and level floor surface (if necessary use a spirit level). If the appliance is to be installed on a wooden floor, distribute the weight by placing it on a 60 × 60cm sheet of plywood at least 3cm in thickness and secure it to the floor. If the floor is uneven, adjust the 4 leveling feet as required; do not insert pieces of wood etc. under the feet.

Slacken the locknut clockwise (see arrow) using the wrench.

Lift the machine slightly and adjust the height of the foot by revolving it.

Important: tighten the locknut by turning it anti-clockwise towards the appliance casing.

INSTALL BOTTOM COVER

To realize quieter operation, a bottom cover is supplied with the unit (only applies to some of the Hisense washers). After installing the cover at the bottom of the washer, the noise level will be greatly reduced. Please ask for advice from specialists before installing the cover, nevertheless, the machine can be used without the bottom cover.

Stick acoustic wool to the side of bottom cover plate with the letter of "PUMP". Tilt the washer by 30^ - 40^ , when installing the bottom cover, please face the side with sound insulation upwards and attach 'PUMP' at the corner of the cover to the position of the pump in the washer.

CONNECT THE WATER SUPPLY INLET HOSE

If the water inlet hose is not already installed, it must be screwed to the appliance. The blue marked hose is only for cold water. Depending on the model, the hot waterhose marked with red should also be connected, for models having dual inlets. Hot (Depending on models) Cold

10 Screw by hand the inlet hose onto the tap, tightening the nut.

Attention:

no kinks in the hose!
- The appliance must not be connected to the mixing tap of an un-pressurized water heater.
- Check water-tightness of connections by turning the tap completely on.
If the hose is too short, replace it with a suitable length of pressure resistant hose (1000 kPa min, EN 50084 approved type).
- Check the inlet hose regularly for brittleness and cracks and replace if necessary.
The washing machine can be connected without a non-return valve.

FILL INSTRUCTION

For Models with Dual Inlets

If you wish to connect hot and cold water supply (Fig.1):

1. Fix the red marked inlet hose to the hot water tap and to the inlet valve with the red filter on the rear side of machine.
2. Fix the other inlet hose to the cold water tap and to the inlet valve with the blue filter on the rear side of the machine.

Make sure:

a) The connections are tightly fixed
b) Do not invert their position (for example: cold fill into hot inlet valve and vice versa). If you wish to connect only the cold fill follow the below instructions (Fig. 2):

1. You need a Y-piece connector. This can be purchased from local hardware or plumbing supplier.
2. Fix the Y-piece connector to the cold fill tap.
3. Connect the two inlet valves present on the rear part of the machine to the Y-piece connector using the hoses provided.

For Models with Single Inlet

Fix the inlet hose to the cold water tap and to the inlet valve on the rear side of the machine as Fig. 3

Ensure that:

as shown below:

Unhook it only from the right clip (see arrow)

Connect the drain hose to the siphon or

hook it over the edge of a sink by means of the "U" bend.

Fit the "U" bend E, if not already installed, at the end of the drain hose.

Notes:

• Ensure that there are no kinks in the drain hose.
• Secure the hose so that it cannot fall down. After wash phase, machine will drain out hot water.
• Small hand basins are not suitable.
• To make an extension use a hose of the same type and secure the connections with clips.
  Max. Overall drain hose length: 2.50m
