Frequently Asked Questions - KFWM 6423 I Kernau

How do I install the washing machine?
Remove all packaging and transport bolts. Connect the inlet hose to a cold water tap with a 3/4" thread. Place the drain hose into a standpipe or sink. Level the machine by adjusting the feet. Ensure the power cord is plugged into an earthed socket.
Why is the machine not starting?
Check that the door is properly closed. Verify water supply is turned on. Ensure the program selector is not in a pause position. If error code appears, consult the manual. Common causes: Child lock active or door not closed.
How do I clean the detergent drawer?
Remove the drawer by pressing the release lever. Wash all parts under warm water. Clean the compartment in the machine with a brush. Reinsert fully. For mold removal, use vinegar or a specific cleaner.
What do the error codes mean?
Common codes: E01 (door lock fault), E02 (water not draining), E03 (heating problem). Refer to manual for full list. If code persists, call service. Do not attempt internal repairs.
How often should I clean the pump filter?
Clean the filter every 3 months or when the machine fails to drain. Access via the lower front panel. Place a bowl, unscrew filter anticlockwise, remove debris. Ensure power is off before cleaning.
Can I wash a duvet?
Yes, but use a large duvet program if available (capacity up to 2 kg for duvets). Distribute the duvet evenly. Use a liquid detergent. Avoid overloading - the drum must not be more than half full for bulky items.
Why is the machine vibrating excessively?
Check transport bolts are removed. Ensure machine is level and all four feet are on the floor. Small items may cause imbalance. Redistribute the load. If persists, check floor stability.
How do I use the delay start feature?
Select the desired program. Press the Delay Start button repeatedly to set delay in hours (up to 24h). Start the program. The machine will begin after the set delay. Not all programs support delay start.
What detergents are recommended?
Use high-efficiency (HE) detergents for front loaders. For quick programs, use liquid detergent. Avoid excessive foam. For wool, use specialized detergent. Never use bleach unless specified.
How do I reset the machine?
Turn the program selector to Off. Unplug the machine for 1 minute, then plug back in. Wait 10 seconds and turn on. This resets the electronics. If issues persist, contact Kernau support.

- Make sure the door is fully closed, otherwise the programme will not start.

ADDING DETERGENT TO THE MACHINE

The amount of detergent you will need to put in your machine will depend on the following criteria:

• If your clothes are only slightly soiled, do not pre-wash. Put a small amount of detergent (as specified by the manufacturer) into compartment II of the detergent drawer.

• If your clothes are excessively soiled, select a programme with pre-wash and put 14 of the detergent to be used into compartment I of the detergent drawer and the rest in compartment II.

- Use detergents produced for automatic washing machines. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the amount of detergent to use.

• In areas of hard water, more detergent will be required.

• The amount of the detergent required will increase with higher washing loads.

• Put softener in the middle compartment of the detergent drawer. Do not exceed the MAX level.

• Thick softeners may cause clogging of the drawer and should be diluted.

NOTE

PROGRAMME DURATION MAY CHANGE ACCORDING TO THE AMOUNT OF LAUNDRY, TAP WATER, AMBIENT TEMPERATURE AND SELECTED ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS.

(*) Washing water temperature of the programme is the factory default.
(**) If your machine has the rapid wash auxiliary function, you can enable the quick wash option on the display panel and load the machine with 2 kg or less laundry to wash it in 30 minutes.
(***) Due to the short washing time of this programme, we recommend that less detergent is used. The programme may last longer than 15 minutes if your machine detects an uneven load. You can open the door of your machine 2 minutes after the completion of a washing operation. (The 2 minute period is not included in the programme duration).

According to regulation 1015/2010 and 1061/2010, the programme 1 and the programme 2 are respectively the ‘Standard 60°C cotton programme’ and the ‘Standard 40°C cotton programme’.

The Eco 40-60 programme is able to clean normally soiled cotton laundry declared to be washable at 40^ C or 60^ C, together in the same cycle, and that this programme is used to assess the compliance with the EU ecodesign legislation.

  • The most efficient programmes in terms of energy consumption are generally those that perform at lower temperatures and longer duration.
  • Loading the household washing machine up to the capacity indicated by the manufacturer for the respective programmes will contribute to energy and water savings.
  • Program duration, energy consumption and water consumption values may vary according to wash load weight and type, selected extra functions, tap water and ambient temperature.
  • It's recommended to use liquid detergent for the washing programmes at low temperature. The amount of detergent to be used may vary depending on the amount of laundry and the level of dirtiness of the laundry. Please follow the detergent manufacturers' recommendations for the amount of the detergent to be used.
  • The noise and remaining moisture content are influenced by the spinning speed. The higher spinning speed in the spinning phase, the higher noise and the lower remaining moisture content.
  • You can access the product database where the model information is stored by reading the QR code on the energy label.
