Frequently Asked Questions - IWTE 71282 C ECO EU INDESIT

How do I clean the detergent dispenser?
Press the large button on the front of the dispenser and pull it upwards. Clean under a tap with a toothbrush, especially the siphons in compartments 1 and 2. Reinsert the siphons and click the dispenser back into place.
How do I clean the pump filter?
Unplug the machine. Remove the cover panel on the lower front using a screwdriver. Unscrew the pump lid anticlockwise (a little water may trickle out). Clean inside, then screw lid back on and reposition the panel.
What should I do if the washing machine does not drain?
Check that the drain hose is not bent or clogged. Ensure the free end is not underwater and that the hose is positioned between 65 and 100 cm from the floor. Also check that the drain phase is not manually required (e.g., if Easy iron is activated, press START/PAUSE to complete).
Why is my washing machine vibrating and how can I fix it?
Ensure the machine is level by adjusting the front feet. Check that the transport screws have been removed. Also make sure the machine is not trapped between cabinets or walls, and that the floor is stable.
How do I use the delayed start function?
Select a wash cycle, then press the DELAYED START button repeatedly until the desired delay time appears on the display. The symbol will light up. To cancel, press the button until 'OFF' appears.
What does error code F-01 mean?
Error codes like F-01 indicate a fault. Switch off the machine, unplug it for about 1 minute, then restart. If the error persists, contact an authorized Technical Assistance Centre.
Can I open the door during a wash cycle?
Press the START/PAUSE button to pause the cycle. If the door locked symbol is off, you can open the door. Wait approximately 3 minutes after the cycle ends for the lock to release.
How much detergent should I use?
Follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions. For white cottons and heavy soil, use powder detergent. Do not exceed the 'max' level in the fabric softener compartment. Using too much detergent can cause foam problems.
What is the maximum load for different cycles?
Refer to the programme table: Cotton (7 kg), Synthetics (3 kg), Wool (1 kg), Silk (1 kg), Jeans (2.5 kg), Sport (3 kg), 20' Refresh (1.5 kg). Always check the label for fabric care.
How do I run the first wash cycle?
After installation, run a 90°C programme with detergent but no laundry. This cleans the drum and hoses. Make sure the water and electrical connections are correct and the transport screws are removed.

  • the socket is earthed and complies with all applicable laws;
  • the socket is able to withstand the maximum power load of the appliance as indicated in the Technical data table (see opposite);
  • the power supply voltage falls within the values indicated in the Technical data table (see opposite);
  • the socket is compatible with the plug of the washing machine. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the plug.

! The washing machine must not be installed outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the appliance exposed to rain, storms and other weather conditions.

! When the washing machine has been installed, the electricity socket must be within easy reach.

! Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.
! The cable should not be bent or compressed.
! The power supply cable must only be replaced by authorised technicians.

Warning! The company shall not be held responsible in the event that these regulations are not respected.

The length of cycle shown on the display or in this booklet is an estimation only and is calculated assuming standard working conditions. The actual duration can vary according to factors such as water temperature and pressure, the amount of detergent used, the amount and type of load inserted, load balancing and any wash options selected.
1) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle 60°C with a temperature of 60°C.
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments which can be washed at 60°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
2) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle 40°C with a temperature of 40°C.
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments which can be washed at 40°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.

For all Test Institutes:

2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle 40^ with a temperature of 40^ .
3) Long wash cycle for synthetics: set wash cycle 4; with a temperature of 40^ C.

Wash options

EcoTime

Selecting this option enables you to suitably adjust drum rotation, temperature and water to a reduced load of lightly soiled cotton and synthetic fabrics (refer to the "Table of wash cycles"). "Econides you to wash in less time thereby saving water and electricity. We suggest using a liquid detergent suitably measured out to the load quantity.

! It cannot be used with the 1, 2 (>60°), 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24.

Energy Saver

The Energy Station saves energy by not heating the water used to wash your laundry - an advantage both to the environment and to your energy bill. Instead, intensified wash action and water optimisation ensure great wash results in the same average time of a standard cycle.

For the best washing results we recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.

! It cannot be used with the 1, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 🔘, ∞ programmes.

INDESIT IWTE 71282 C ECO EU - Energy Saver - 1

Extra rinse

By selecting this option, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly useful for sensitive skin.

! It cannot be used in conjunction with the Ⓞ, programmes.

Easy iron

By selecting this function, the wash and spin cycles will be modified in order to reduce the formation of creases. At the end of the cycle the washing machine will perform slow rotations of the drum; the indicator lights for the EASY IRON and START/PAUSE options will flash (the first one green, the second orange). To end the cycle, press the START/PAUSE button or the EASY IRON button. For the 9 wash cycles, the machine will end the cycle while the laundry is soaking and the EASY IRON and START/PAUSE indicator lights will flash. To drain the water so that the laundry may be removed, press the START/PAUSE button or the EASY IRON button.

! This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 8, 10, 12, 13, 14,

Detergent dispenser drawer

Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause build up on the inside of your appliance and contribute to environmental pollution.

! Do not use hand washing detergents because these create too much foam.
! Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for pre-washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C.
! Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.

1 2 3 4

Open up the detergent dispenser and pour in the detergent and fabric softener, as follows.

compartment 1: Detergent for pre-wash (powder)

compartment 2: Deter- gent for the wash cycle (powder or liquid)

Liquid detergent should

only be poured in immediately prior to the wash cycle start.

! Do not use hand wash detergent because it may form too much foam.

compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)

When pouring the softener in compartment 3, avoid exceeding the “max” level indicated.

The softener is added automatically into the machine during the last wash. At the end of the wash programme, some water will be left in compartment 3. This is used for the inlet of denser fabric softeners into the machine, i.e. to dilute the more concentrated softeners. Should more than a normal amount of water remain in compartment 3, this means the emptying device is blocked. The fabric softener should not overflow from the grid.

compartment 4: Do not pour detergent into this compartment.

Preparing the laundry

  • Divide the laundry according to:
  • the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
  • the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.
  • Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.
  • Do not exceed the values listed in the "Table of wash cycles", which refer to the weight of the laundry when dry.

How much does your laundry weigh?

1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1200 g
1 towel 150-250 g

Special wash cycles

Silk: use special wash cycle 9 to wash all silk garments. We recommend the use of special detergent which has been designed to wash delicate clothes.

Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow case or mesh bag. Use wash cycle 9.

Wool: all wool garments can be washed using programme 10, even those carrying the "hand-wash only" label. For best results, use special detergents and do not exceed 1 kg of laundry.

Jeans: Turn garments inside-out before washing and use a liquid detergent. Use programme 11.

Sport Intensive (programma 12): is for washing heavily soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the "Programme table".

Sport Light (programma 13): is for washing lightly soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the "Programme table". We recommend using a liquid detergent and dosage suitable for a half-load.

Sport Shoes (programma 14): is for washing sports shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2 pairs simultaneously.

The 20^ wash cycles ( 20^ Zone) offer effective washing performance at low temperatures, reducing electricity usage and expenditure while benefitting the environment. The 20^ wash cycles meet all requirements:

Cotton Standard 20° (programme 6) ideal for lightly soiled cotton loads. The effective performance levels achieved at cold temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°, are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at varying speed, with repeated and frequent peaks.

Mix Light (programme 7) ideal for mixed loads (cotton and synthetics) with a normal soil level. The effective performance levels achieved at cold temperatures are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at varying speed, across set average intervals.

20' Refresh (programme 8) ideal for refreshing and washing lightly soiled garments in a few minutes. It lasts just 20 minutes and therefore saves both time and energy. It can be used to wash different types of fabrics together (except for wool and silk), with a maximum load of 1.5 kg.

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the washing machine performs the distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage improved load distribution and balance, we recommend small and large garments are mixed in the load.

Your washing machine could fail to work. Before contacting the Technical Assistance Centre (see “Assistance”), make sure that the problem cannot be solved easily using the following list.

Problem:

The washing machine does not switch on.

The wash cycle does not start.

The washing machine does not take in water ("H2O" will flash on the display).

The washing machine continuously takes in and drains water.

The washing machine does not drain or spin.

The washing machine vibrates a lot during the spin cycle.

The washing machine leaks.

The “option” indicator lights and the “start/pause” indicator light flash and an error code appears on the display (e.g.: F-01, F-..).

There is too much foam.

Possible causes / Solutions:

- The appliance is not plugged into the socket fully, or is not making contact. - There is no power in the house.

- The washing machine door is not closed properly. - The ON/OFF button has not been pressed. - The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed. - The water tap has not been opened. - A delayed start has been set.

- The water inlet hose is not connected to the tap. - The hose is bent. - The water tap has not been opened. - There is no water supply in the house. - The pressure is too low. - The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed

- The drain hose is not fitted at a height between 65 and 100cm from the floor (see "Installation"). - The free end of the hose is under water (see "Installation"). - The wall drainage system is not fitted with a breather pipe. If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water tap, switch the appliance off and contact the Assistance Service. If the dwelling is on one of the upper floors of a building, there may be problems relating to water drainage, causing the washing machine to fill with water and drain continuously. Special anti-draining valves are available in shops and help to avoid this inconvenience.

- The wash cycle does not include draining: some wash cycles require the drain phase to be started manually. - The “Easy iron” option has been activated: To complete the wash cycle, press the START/PAUSE button (see “Wash cycles and options”). - The drain hose is bent (see “Installation”). - The drainage duct is clogged.

- The drum was not unlocked correctly during installation (see "Installation"). - The washing machine is not level (see "Installation"). - The washing machine is trapped between cabinets and walls (see "Installation").

- The water inlet hose is not screwed on properly (see "Installation"). - The detergent dispenser drawer is blocked (for cleaning instructions, see "Care and maintenance"). - The drain hose is not fixed properly (see "Installation").

- Switch off the machine and unplug it, wait for approximately 1 minute and then switch it back on again. If the problem persists, contact the Technical Assistance Service.

- The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the text "for washing machines" or "hand and machine wash", or the like). - Too much detergent was used.

Before calling for Assistance:

  • Check whether you can solve the problem alone (see "Troubleshooting");
  • Restart the programme to check whether the problem has been solved;
  • If this is not the case, contact an authorised Technical Assistance Centre using the telephone number provided on the guarantee certificate.

! Always request the assistance of authorised technicians.

Have the following information to hand:

• the type of problem;
• the appliance model (Mod.);
• the serial number (S/N).
This information can be found on the data plate applied to the rear of the washing machine.
