Frequently Asked Questions - NA-D106X1 PANASONIC

How do I install the washing machine?

Ensure the machine is placed on a solid, level floor. Remove all transport bolts. Connect the inlet hose to a water tap (cold water only) and attach the drain hose to a suitable drain. Plug into a grounded outlet. Level the machine by adjusting the feet. Consult the user manual for detailed steps.

How do I clean the detergent drawer?

Remove the detergent drawer by pulling it out and pressing the release lever. Wash it under warm water using a brush. Clean the compartment inside the machine with a damp cloth. Reinsert the drawer. Regular cleaning prevents detergent buildup.

What should I do if the machine does not start?

Check that the machine is plugged in and the power supply is on. Ensure the door is fully closed. Verify the water tap is open. Check if a delay start is set. Refer to the manual for specific error codes.

How do I use the delayed start function?

Select the desired wash program, then press the Delayed Start button repeatedly to set the delay (e.g., 3, 6, 9 hours). The display will show the delay time. Press Start to activate. The machine will begin the cycle after the delay.

What does error code E01 mean?

Error code E01 typically indicates a water inlet problem. Check that the water tap is fully open and the inlet hose is not kinked. Also ensure the water pressure is sufficient. If the issue persists, contact Panasonic support.

How do I clean the drain filter?

Unplug the machine. Open the lower access panel. Place a shallow container under the filter. Slowly turn the filter counterclockwise to drain water. Remove the filter and clean it under running water. Replace and tighten. Do this regularly to avoid drainage issues.

Can I use a different detergent than recommended?

You can use any high-efficiency (HE) detergent suitable for front-loading machines. Avoid using too much detergent to prevent oversudsing. For best results, follow the dosage instructions on the detergent package and the machine's label.

How do I balance the load for optimal performance?

Distribute items evenly around the drum. Avoid washing a single heavy item (like a rug) alone. Add a few small items to balance. Overloading can cause excessive vibration and noise. The machine will attempt to redistribute the load, but manual adjustment helps.

What is the energy consumption of this machine?

The energy consumption depends on the program and load. The NA-D106X1 has an A+++ rating, consuming approximately 0.75 kWh per cycle for a standard 6 kg load at 60°C. Actual usage varies. Refer to the energy label for detailed figures.

How do I activate the child lock?

Press and hold the Child Lock button (usually marked with a padlock icon) for 3 seconds until the indicator lights up. This locks the buttons to prevent children from changing settings. To deactivate, press and hold again for 3 seconds.

Pre-treatment for tough stains

Collar and cuff stains

· Apply detergent for collar and cuffs

Dirt containing mud

- Apply detergent for partial stains or bathing soap, and wash by rubbing.

Stains

Apply detergent for stains or oxygen liquid bleach. (For blood, tea, juice stains, etc., pre-wash with water.)

To prevent darkening of colour and colour transfer

Due to less water used for drum type washing machines, stain or dye concentration may become high, resulting in noticeable darkening or colour transfer of clothes.

Note the following

• Separately wash new coloured clothes or clothes that easily lose colour or are heavily soiled. (If the lost colours transfer to white clothes, darkening of clothes may occur.) ● Warm wash program in particular tend to cause colour transfer. Check care labels of clothes carefully. (P.17)
• Use the correct amount of detergent. (P.21) (Using too small amount of detergent may cause once-removed soil to stick to the clothes again, resulting in darkening of clothes.)
• Do not put in excessive amount of softener. (Softener residue on clothes may cause darkening of clothes.) When using in combination with liquid detergent in particular, darkening of clothes may be noticeable. If it worries you, use powder detergent.

■ How to check loss of colour

Dip white cloth in undiluted mild liquid detergent and rub a hidden part of clothes.

→ If the lost colour transfers, wash separately.

■ If darkening or colour transfer of clothes occurs (P.36)

To prevent creases and shrinkage caused by drying

Note the following

• Select the dry mode that best suits your clothes. (P.29)
• Decrease the amount of clothes for drying at a time.

Recommended guideline: Approx. 3 kg

- Open the door in the middle of drying operation, take out the half-dry clothes. Then, hang the clothes to dry.

● Smooth out creases formed during spin, and then dry.

● After drying operation is complete, take out clothes made of chemical fibre, etc. as quickly as possible that easily dry.

- Clothes that shrink by drying - Some clothes may shrink just by soaking in water, washing or drying. (Because tension generated in fabric processing is restored to the original level by washing)

- Some may shrink more by mechanical force in drying. - Knit products made of cotton, linen, etc.

- Underwear shirt • T-shirt. - Polo shirt • Sweat shirt, etc.

■ If shrinkage worries you (P.36)

To prevent damage of clothes, drainage failure and malfunctions

Reverse fluffy clothes.

Using a brush, remove hairs of pet and person, sands, etc.

Remove metallic fragments and coins.

Fasten buttons. Close zippers.

Tie strings, etc.

Use washing nets for delicate underwear and small items

• Be sure to put only delicate underwear and small items in the net for washing. (Do not put in items in the net other than these.)
• Pantyhose and brassiere (Put wired brassieres in a commercially sold "brassiere-dedicated net".)
• Clothes and lingerie decorated with lace

(As of January, 2019)

Laundry volume	Detergent indicator	Standard powder detergent	Liquid or concentrated powder detergent
10 kg or less	1.7	1.7	1.0
4.5 kg or less	1.3	1.3 0.8
2.5 kg or less	1.0	1.0	0.6
0.5 kg or less	0.6	0.6	0.4

■ For "Intensive" and "Soak" programs

4.5 kg or less	2.6	▶	2.6 1.6
2.5 kg or less	2.0	▶	2.0 1.2
0.5 kg or less	1.2	▶	1.2 0.8

● A drum type of washer uses small amount of water, so the necessary amount of detergent is displayed based on "Laundry amount" instead of "Water amount". ● The detergent amount is displayed based on the spoon (70 g in full). ● Detergent amount for "Hand Wash" and "Bedding" programs (P.25) - Reduce the amount of excessive foaming detergent.

Attention

- If the powdered detergent is poorly soluble

→ Dissolve it in warm water (approx. 30 °C) and directly put in the drum.

Put in the detergent little by little while stirring to prevent it from remaining in a powder state.

For Better Results

Symptoms Tips for nice finish

Darkening or yellowing of clothes, colour transfer or odour	Use correct amount of detergent. (P.21) (Using too small amount of detergent may cause once-removed stains to stick to the clothes again, resulting in darkening of clothes and odour.)Use correct amount of softener. (P.21) (If excessive softener is put in, the softener residue on clothes may cause darkening of clothes.) When using in combination with liquid detergent in particular, darkening of clothes may be noticeable. In this case, use powder detergent.For clothes that easily lose colour (new coloured clothes or heavily soiled clothes), wash separately. (P.13)If yellowing of clothes is noticeable, the "Soak" program is recommended. (P.17, 26)Yellowing of clothes may occur after drying, due to rust in water. detergent residue, colour transfer, etc. (It may look charred.)Discolouration caused by sunlight cannot be remedied.If darkening of clothes, colour transfer or odour is noticeable...→ Using the spoon that comes with the detergent, add 2 spoonfuls of detergent to warm water of approx. 40 °C, soak clothes overnight and wash.→ If the stains still remain, soak them in solution with bleach dissolved for 2 hours.Use chlorine-based bleach for white clothes, and oxygen-based bleach for coloured clothes.(Follow each bleach instructions.)
Damaged clothes	Put delicates such as lingerie in laundry nets before washing. (P.13)Chemical fi bres (jersey, fl eece, etc.) easily dry and they may be damaged due to rubbing. Shorten the spin time.	Detergent solution
Shrunk clothes	Depending on the material, weaving method, thickness and type, some clothes are not suited for washing or drying.Check the care labels or material labels before washing and drying.Knit products or rough-woven materials may shrink by drying even if they are cotton or linen fi bres.Use sun drying in combination.Use Timer dry, take out the clothes in half-dry condition and dry on a laundry pole immediately.Dry on a laundry pole and perform the "Dry" operation for finish.Chemical fi bres may shrink due to heat generated in drying.If cotton products have shrunk by drying→Moisten clothes with water suffi cliently and stretch them. The shrunk clothes are recovered to some extent.If clothes washed with the "Hand Wash" program have shrunk→(1) Spread the clothes to the desired size with marking pins on an ironing board.(2) Hold the iron above the clothes and steam generously.(3) Leave the clothes until they dry.

Symptoms Tips for nice finish

Excessive creases after drying, or change of texture	● Depending on the material, weaving method, thickness and type, some clothes are not suited for washing or drying.→Check the care labels or material labels before washing and drying.(Thin and fl at-woven, or crape clothes tend to crease.)● Reduce the amount of laundry for better fl nish.● Take out the clothes immediately from the drum after drying.● Increasing the "Wash" time or the number of rinses tends to cause the clothes to tangle and crease more. To prevent this, take out the laundry once after spin, and detangle the clothes.For cotton pants, large sheets, etc.If they are not well-dried, after a 60-minute "Timer" dry, take out the laundry in half-dry condition and hang outside.
Lint on clothes	● Towels, etc. tend to produce lint. Separate wash is recommended.● If lint worries you, increase the number of rinses.● After drying operation in particular, lint tends to accumulate. Clean the appliance.If lint is attached on clothes every time→Wash the drum according to the following procedure and remove the lint in the drum.(1) Turn on the water faucet. (4) Select Programian).(2) On the power on. (5) Start.(3) Write dry ash*.Approx. 11 hours will be taken. (If "Tub Clean" (30 °C) is used, approx. 6 hours will be taken.) Clean the "Drain filter" after this operation. (P.30)
Persistent stains	● Pre-treat stain or dirt containing mud which is difficult to remove. (P.12)● Stains are difficult to remove when left unattended.● Iron rust, mould, black writing fl uid, ink, lipstick, or stain caused by chemical reaction such as permanent wave solution may not be removed.● According to how soiled the laundry is, use the "Cotton" program to make your preferred settings. (P.26)
Rough surfaces	Since drum type washers wash clothes while beating. fl bres of towels, etc.may become fl at and you may feel rough on the surfaces.● If clothes stick to the drum and become rough on the surfaces, enable the sticking prevention. (P.34)● Using softener will give nice fl nish.● If the results are still unsatisfactory, perform the "Dry" operation after washing, or perform the "Timer" dry for 60 minutes after spin and dry on a laundry pole.

● Materials of clothes, sewing conditions or type of detergents may be the causes of problems. Check those descriptions.

Operation sound

The following sound is normal. (This is not a malfunction.)

■ If the drum is moved while stopped

Water sound is heard.

- This sound comes from the liquid inside the drum to balance during spin. (There is no water in the main unit.)

Large vibration or rattling sound

■ Vibration of drum type washer

• Unlike stand type washing machines, drum type washers cause vibration or rattling sound at the beginning of a "Spin" cycle to balance. This is not a malfunction.
• Depending on the floor condition or laundry (when jeans or thick towel sheets are included, or only one sweat shirt or fleece shirt is included), vibration may become large.

→Adjust "Level of spin noise" if it worries you. (P.34)

■ For smooth spin operation

• Do not put too many clothes in the net.
• Do not wash only clothes put in the net.
• Wash towel sheets or Judo uniform separately from other clothes.

■ Check the installation condition.

In the following cases, contact the sales dealer immediately where you have purchased the appliance. ● The appliance rattles. - Fixing bolts for transfer are still attached. (See "Installation" P.48) - If the bolts are not removed, the main unit may move, which is dangerous.

Fixing bolt for transfer (2)

● The appliance is tilted. → Check the leveller of the main unit. (It is level if the bubble is inside the circle.)

Blinking (Water temperature display/Remaining time)

- When the water temperature display blinks... →Water temperature is being increased to the set temperature.

Blinking

- When 'min' blinks... →Water temperature is being detected. Since required time is automatically adjusted according to the water temperature, the displayed time may differ from the actual time.

Remaining "Dry" time does not decrease or suddenly decrease

■ The displayed time is a guideline. (different from the actual time)

• Since remaining time is automatically adjusted according to the type of clothes and drying condition, the displayed time may differ from the actual time.
• If the remaining time does not decrease for 1 hour or more, the dry filter may be clogged or the spin time may be too short. →Maintenance for the dry filter (P.31)

Blinks while controlling automatically.

Clothes are not well dried

■ Drying method of this appliance

This appliance dries clothes with the warm air which is slightly higher than the room temperature.

The clothes after drying may not become warm. This is not a malfunction. The moist air is exhausted while drying.

Attention

- Provide adequate ventilation while drying and after the operation, such as by turning the exhaust fan or opening the window. (To prevent condensation on the window/wall/floor)

- Do not block the exhaust outlet with clothes, etc. while drying. (Drying time may become longer.)

Note

● Air from the exhaust outlet may feel cold. - The drying time may become longer or clothes may not be dried well at low room temperature, or at high humidity.

■ Check the dry filter as below.

• Cotton-like dust is attached on the dry filter. →Remove and clean the dry filter. (P.31)
• The dry filter is clogged. ("Clean Filter" blinks.) →Even if the cotton-like dust is removed, the filter may be still clogged.

Wash well with lukewarm water and dry. Remove cotton-like dust attached on the dry filter (inside) as well and wipe with a wrung-out towel.

The mesh is clogged.

Attention

- When excessive foaming detergent is used or excessive detergent causes excessive foam, the bubbles in the drum may reach the dry filter by spin rotation, causing the filter to be clogged or bubbles to spill over. If the filter is clogged or the bubbles spill over, reduce the amount of detergent.

■ Amount of clothes and the condition

• Too many clothes. -Put in clothes of the upper limit amount or less according to the capacity of each program. (P.18) ● There are many clothes (cotton) that need longer time to dry. →Use Timer to dry more. (P.29)
• There are many thick clothes (jeans, sweatshirt, Judo uniform, etc.). →Use Timer to dry more. (P.29)
• The "Wash&Dry" operation is being performed with many towels in.

→Towels stick to the drum during the "Spin" cycle, which interrupts the drying process. Perform the "Wash&Dry" operation with other clothes (20 to 30%) in.

• Detangle the clothes after spin.
• Do not put clothes in a laundry net.

■ Installation condition

(For details, see "Installation". (P.48)) ● The rear side of the main unit is in contact with wall, etc. ● The appliance is installed in a closed narrow place.

■ Others

● The door is opened or closed many times in the middle of operation, or left open. →Open or close the door only when necessary. - When "Anti-crease" is blinking, the "Dry" operation has finished.

→Open the door and take out the clothes.

Detergent	Detergent remains.	The powder detergent is directly put in the drum or liquid detergent compartment.→Be sure to put it in the powder detergent compartment of the detergent case.(P.20)Depending on the brand, the detergent may be difficult to dissolve when water temperature is low.-Dissolve the detergent completely and put in the detergent case.Water is already in the drum. Or detergent was put in after water supply has fi nished.→Flush a cup of water into the detergent case.Lumps of detergent were put in the case or the detergent was put in the wet detergent case.The water supply fil ter is clogged with dust, interrupting smooth water flow.→Using water containing many impurities such as well water causes dust to accumulate. Clean the fil ter. (P.44)Detergent, softener or water remain in the detergent case.-Clean the detergent case.Turn on the water faucet further, and increase the amount of water supply.Depending on the brand, some softeners may be difficult to flow. Dissolve the softener with the same amount of water completely and put in the compartment. (Softeners of some brands are solidified when mixed with a small amount of water and cannot be used.)In the “Soak” program, small amount of softener may remain. This is not a malfunction.Softener is stuck to the detergent case.Remove the cover and clean the tube of the case with a soft cloth or cotton-tipped stick.→Remove the cover and clean the back side and tube of the cover with a soft cloth or cotton-tipped stick.
	No effect of softener	The softener was put in exceeding the “MAX” level. (P.20)→Do not put in the softener exceeding the “MAX” level.(The softener flows out immediately due to its siphonic structure.)

Symptoms Check		the following.
Bubble	Not many bubbles are formed.	● The powder detergent was directly put in the drum.→Be sure to put it in the powder detergent compartment of the detergent case. (P.20)● Bubble may be less depending on the type of detergent (low suds type), detergent amount, water quality and water temperature.● Bubble may be less when the mount of laundry is large or the laundry is heavily soiled.
	Excessive bubbles are formed.(Bubbles are attached inside the door, etc.)	● Depending on the type of detergent (liquid delicate detergent, etc.), detergent amount, water quality, water temperature and how soiled the laundry is, many bubbles remain on the door. This is not a malfunction.→Reduce the amount of detergent, or increase the number of rinses.
Wash	Water is not supplied	● The water faucet is not turned on.● Water or water supply hose is frozen.● The water supply is cut off .● The fl liter of the connection of the water supply hose is clogged with dust.→Clean the water supply fl liter. (P.44)● If there are excessive bubbles, water supply may temporarily stop.● When using little amount of water, water may not be seen even if it is supplied.
	Water is supplied in the middle.	● When the water level goes down, water is supplied automatically.● With large amount of laundry, water may be supplied several times.
	Water is drained in the middle.	● If there are excessive bubbles, “water discharge → water supply” is repeated and bubbles are removed.● The “Intensive” program drains water in the middle of the “Wash” cycle. This prevents stains from reattaching.● It the “Tub Clean” program is operated using a washer-tub cleaner containing surface acting agent, excessive bubbles may be formed, causing water to drain in the middle of operation.● Do not open the door and pour water or hot water. Water may not be saved and drained instead.● A small amount of water may be drained when the operation restarts.

Troubleshooting (continued)

- Check the following items before requesting service.

In the case of abnormality, contact the sales dealer immediately where you have purchased the appliance.

Symptoms Check the following.
Rinse/Spin	Rinsing water is not supplied.	● If "Rinse" or "Rinse/Spin" is selected, the operation starts with water discharge if water remains in the drum, and starts with spin if there is no water in the drum, and then water is supplied.
