CHAPTER -2: BEFORE USING YOUR WASHING MACHINE SAFETY WARNINGS

  • Do not use a multiple socket or extension cord.
  • Do not insert a plug with damaged or broken cord into the socket.
  • If the cord is damaged it should be replaced by the manufacturer or appointed service agent in order to avoid a hazard.
  • Always pull the plug from the socket when disconnecting, do not pull on the electrical cable.
  • Do not plug the power supply with wet hands.
  • Never touch the machine with wet hands or feet.
  • Never open the detergent drawer while the device is running.
  • Never force open the door of the machine while the machine is running.
  • Since the machine can reach high temperatures while running, do not touch the drain hose and water during draining.
  • In case of any failure, first unplug the device and close the water tap. Do not attempt to repair .Please apply to the nearest authorised service station.
  • Do not forget that the packing material of your machine may be hazardous for children.
  • Do not let your children play with the washing machine.
  • Keep your pet away from your machine.
  • Your machine should only be used by adults within the information written in this manual.
  • Your machine is designed for use in house environment.

CHAPTER -2: BEFORE USING YOUR WASHING MACHINE RECOMMENDATIONS

  • The detergent or softener in contact with air for a long time will dry and stick to your detergent drawer. To avoid this put your detergent and softener into the detergent drawer just before washing.
  • It is recommended that you use pre-washing programme for only very dirty clothes.
  • Please do not exceed the maximum loading capacity.
  • The appliance is not intended for use by people (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
  • If you do not need to use your machine for a long time, unplug it, close the water supply and leave the door open. This will keep the inside dry and prevent unpleasant odour building up.

CHAPTER -3: SETTING UP REMOVING TRANSPORT SAFETY SCREWS

As a result of manufacturing quality control procedures, a certain amount of water may remain in your machine, this is normal and not harmful.

You must pay attention to the following issues before using your washing machine.

Transportation screws, which are located at the back of the machine, must be removed before running the machine.

The transportation screws that have been removed should be kept for future use if the machine needs to be transported elsewhere.

CHAPTER -3 SETTING UP ADJUSTING FEET FOR BALANCE

  • Do not install your machine on rugs or similar surfaces.
  • For your machine to work silently and without any vibration, it should be positioned on a flat, non-slippery and durable floor.
  • You can adjust the feet of your machine to stabilise the balance.
  • First, loosen the plastic adjustment nut.
  • Adjust by rotating the feet upwards or downwards.
  • After the balance has been reached, tighten the plastic adjustment nut again by rotating it upwards.
  • Never put cartons, wooden blocks or similar materials under the machine to achieve balance.

SMEG LBW148E - CHAPTER -3 SETTING UP ADJUSTING FEET FOR BALANCE - 1

SMEG LBW148E - CHAPTER -3 SETTING UP ADJUSTING FEET FOR BALANCE - 2

CHAPTER -3: SETTING UP ELECTRICAL CONNECTION / WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

  • Your washing machine works with 220-240V and 50Hz.
  • An earthed plug has been attached to the power cable of your washing machine. It is essential to connect this plug to an earthed 10 ampere socket. The fuse flow value of the electricity line attached to this should also be 10 ampere. If you have no such sockets and fuses in your house, call a qualified electrician.
  • The guarantee will be invalidated by any damage that could occur as a result of usage without earthing.
  • Insert the machine's plug to an earthed socket within easy reach.

WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION

  • Depending on the features of your machine, there may be single water inlet (cold) or double water inlet (cold/hot). The white headed hose is for cold water inlet and red headed hose is for hot water inlet (valid for machines with hot and cold water inlet).
  • To prevent leakage from the connection joints, 1 (valid for cold water inlet) or 2 (valid for machines with hot and cold water inlet) seals are included in the hose packing. Fit these seals at the end of water inlet hoses on the tap side.

The following table provides the information in English:

WATER DRAIN CONNECTION

  • Be sure that water inlet hoses are not folded, twisted, crushed or elongated by stretching.
    • Water drain hose should be mounted at a height of minimum 60 cm, maximum 100 cm from the ground.
  • The end of the water drain hose may directly be fitted to the dirty water outlet hole or a special apparatus mounted on the outlet bracket of the wash-stand.
  • Never attempt to extend the water drain hose by adding extra parts.

CHAPTER-4: PRELIMINARY PREPARATION FOR LAUNDERING SEPARATING LAUNDRY

  • Sort your clothes according to their types (cotton, synthetic, sensitive, woollen, etc.), washing temperatures and level of dirtiness.
    • Never wash your white and coloured clothes together.
  • Since your new coloured clothes may shed dye on the first wash, wash them separately.
  • Be careful that no metal parts are found on or in the pockets of your clothes, remove if there are any.
  • Zip up and/or button up your clothes.
  • Remove plastic or metal hooks from curtains or place them inside a washing bag and tie.
  • Pull items like trousers, knitted fabrics, t-shirts and sweat shirts inside out.
  • Wash small clothes like socks and handkerchiefs in a washing bag.

  • Shut the door of your machine tightly otherwise your machine will not start the washing process.

CHAPTER-4: ADDING DETERGENT INTO MACHINE

The quantity of the detergent that you will put in your machine depends on the following criteria:

  • Your detergent consumption will change according to the dirtiness of your clothes. For slightly dirty clothes, do not pre-wash and put a small amount of detergent in the compartment no.2 of the detergent drawer.
  • For excessively dirty clothes, select a programme with pre-washing, fill 1/4 portion of the detergent you will put in compartment 1 in the detergent drawer and the remaining portion in compartment 2.
  • Only use detergents developed especially for automatic washing machines. The quantities that will be used for your clothes are written on the detergent packaging.
  • As the hardness of your water increases, the amount of the detergent to be consumed will also increase.
  • As the amount of your clothes increases, the amount of the detergent to be consumed will also increase.
  • Put softener in the softener compartment in the detergent drawer. Do not exceed the MAX level. Otherwise, the softener will diffuse in the washing water via the siphon.
  • Concentrated softeners should be diluted with some water before filling in the drawer. This is because the softener with a high density can obstruct the siphon and prevent the correct flow of the softener.
  • You can use fluid detergents in all programmes without pre-

CHAPTER 6: OPERATING YOUR MACHINE

Half-load detection system

Your machine features a half-load detection system. In case you put approximately half or less amount of Laundry of maximum laundry capacity in your machine, your machine will run so as to save washing time, water consumption and energy in some programmes(White cotton 95°, Colourfast cotton 60°, Non colourfast cotton 40°). When half-load function is active, the machine can complete the programme you have set in a shorter time.

Twinjet system

Detergent water in your machine will be circulated with 2 water injection mechanisms and a mixing system via twinjet system. Circulated detergent water will be injected over your laundries, which allows a better washing performance.

Twinjet system will help you wash higher amount of laundries in a shorter time with a better washing performance, guaranteeing less energy and water consumption.
