Frequently Asked Questions - STR-FLW80W Stirling

How do I clean the detergent drawer?

Remove the drawer by pressing the release tab. Wash it under warm water with a soft brush. Ensure the fabric softener compartment is clear. Dry thoroughly before reinserting.

My washing machine won't start, what should I do?

Check that the door is properly closed and the child lock is off. Ensure water supply is on and the plug is connected. Press the Start/Pause button again. If the issue persists, contact support.

How do I perform a drum clean cycle?

Run a hot water cycle (90°C) with a washing machine cleaner or a cup of white vinegar. Do not add laundry. This removes bacteria and odours. Repeat monthly.

What does error code E10 mean?

Error E10 indicates a water supply issue. Check that the taps are fully open, hoses are not kinked, and the water inlet filter is clean. Restart the cycle.

How to install the washing machine?

Remove all transport bolts from the back. Level the machine using the adjustable feet. Connect the inlet hose to a cold water tap and the drain hose to a standpipe. Plug into a grounded outlet.

How do I use the delay start function?

Select your wash program, then press the Delay Start button repeatedly to set the desired delay (1-24 hours). Press Start/Pause to begin countdown.

Why is my washing machine making a loud noise?

Check if the machine is level. Objects like coins or buttons may be caught in the drum or pump filter. Also, ensure transport bolts are removed. Overloading can cause noise.

How to clean the filter?

Locate the filter at the bottom front panel. Place a towel, unscrew the filter, and remove debris. Clean under running water. Reinsert and tighten. Do this every 3 months.

How to remove lint from clothes?

Use a lint roller or sticky tape. For heavier lint, run a short rinse cycle with fabric softener. Clean the machine's filter and ensure no overloading.

What is the maximum load capacity?

The maximum dry load capacity is 8 kg for cotton. For other fabrics, reduce load by half (e.g., synthetics 4 kg, delicates 2 kg). Do not exceed the drum's fill line.

Installation

Removing the transit bolts

WARNING!

Before installing the washing machine, you must remove the transit bolts from the back of the housing and cover the holes with the transit hole caps provided.

The bolts hold the drum in place during transport but they must be removed before use so the drum can move during the wash and spin cycles. Leaving the bolts installed will result in strong shock and noise during use, malfunction and serious damage to the machine.

• Dismantle the four transit bolts from the back of the washing machine using an appropriate tool (Fig. 2).
• Keep the bolts in a safe place; you will need them again when moving the machine, if you move house, for example.
  • Cover the holes with the supplied caps.

Selecting the location

Before installing the appliance, make sure the location meets the following requirements:

• A concrete floor is the most suitable installation surface for a washing machine, being far less prone to vibration during the spin cycle than wooden floorboards or a carpeted surface.
• The machine must be level and securely positioned. It must be protected from direct sunlight, water and weather.
• The distance between the machine and wall must be more than 10 cm (Fig. 3).
• To avoid vibrations during spinning, the machine should not be installed on soft floor coverings. If the appliance must be placed on a carpeted surface, place a plastic mat underneath and ensure any ventilation openings in the base are not obstructed.

WARNING!

Stability is important to prevent the washing machine from moving during operation. Make sure that the machine does not stand on the power cord.

Installation (Cont.)

Levelling the machine

WARNING!

It is very important to level the washing machine carefully, especially if your floor is uneven. Failure to do so may result in the machine shaking and moving during the spin cycle, or out-of-balance problems.

Place the machine on solid, dry and level ground. The machine must stand perfectly level on all four feet to ensure safe and proper operation. Incorrect installation may cause vibrations and noise and may cause the machine to move about.

To determine whether levelling is necessary, place a spirit level on top of the washer and hold it upright against the housing to identify any inclinations. If the machine needs levelling, proceed as follows (Fig. 4):

• Loosen the lock nut with a spanner, turning it anticlockwise to loosen.
• Adjust the foot by hand until it makes close contact with the floor. Turn it clockwise to lower the foot or anticlockwise to raise it.
• When the machine is level, use a spanner to turn the lock nut in a clockwise direction to tighten.

WARNING!

The lock nuts on all four feet must be screwed tightly against the housing, otherwise the machine may vibrate noisily during operation.

Installation (Cont.)

Installing the drain hose

WARNING!

Do not kink or protract the drain hose.

Position the drain hose properly in order to prevent water spillage onto the floor and potential damage.

Never immerse the end of the drain hose in water.

The drain hose is installed at the back of the machine. For drainage of the washing water, you can install the other end of the hose two different ways: either directly into a laundry sink or into a standpipe.

Drain hose connection into a sink (Fig. 5)

Diagram of a plumbing sink with pipe fittings and a valve (no text or labels)

Fig. 5

• If the spigot outlet has not been used before, remove any blanking plug that may be in place.
• Push the drain hose onto the spigot and secure with a clip, if required.
• Ensure a loop is formed in the drain hose to prevent waste from the sink entering the washing machine.
• If required, the drain hose may be extended to a length of 4 m.

Installation (Cont.)

Drain hose connection into a standpipe (Fig. 6)

• Firstly, form a hook in the end of the drain hose using the supplied drain hose elbow.
• Place the drain hose into your standpipe, which should have an internal diameter of approximately 30 mm, thus ensuring there is an air break between the drain hose and standpipe.
• When discharging into a standpipe, ensure that the top of the standpipe is no more than 90 cm and no less than 60 cm above floor level.

WARNING!

Never lay down the drain hose as water will be discharged. Be sure the drain hose is properly routed so it will not kink or lift off the sink. Leave the drain hose affixed to the back of the machine.

FROST PROTECTION

Do not install the washing machine in places where temperatures drop to below 0^ . The reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below freezing point, and the machine's inlet valve and draining systems may get damaged as frozen hoses may burst or split.

If temperatures drops to below 0^ C, transfer it to an area with a warmer ambient temperature before use and ensure no residual water is frozen in hoses and pipes.

Installation (Cont.)

Connecting the water supply hose

WARNING!

To prevent leakage or water damage, make sure to follow the instructions in this section when connecting the washing machine to your water supply.

Do not kink, crush, modify or sever the water inlet hose.

- Connect the supplied cold water supply hose to an ordinary laundry tap with a 3/4" thread (Fig. 7). Installation should comply with all requirements and regulations of your local water and building authorities.

- When there is a inlet valve at the back of the machine, it must be connected to a cold water supply. (If there are two inlet valves, one must be connected to a cold water supply and the other to a hot water supply.) Follow the pictorial instructions below (Fig. 8) to complete the connection.

- Turn on the tap and check for leaks. In case of leakage, repeat the connection steps above, or tighten the nut more firmly. If your water pressure is strong, close the water tap completely, then open it slightly.

CAUTION!

When tightening the coupling nut, take care not to damage the water inlet valve joint. Apply force evenly and do not twist the water inlet valve.

Use only the new (supplied) hose with your new appliance. Do not use a hose from an existing machine, or one that has been used previously.

Installation (Cont.)

Electrical connection

WARNING! This appliance must be earthed.

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, earthing will reduce the risk of an electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current.

This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and an earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and earthed in accordance with all local standards and requirements.

Do not modify the plug under any circumstances. If the plug does not fit your outlet, consult a licensed electrician and have the outlet changed.

Power supply system

• Make sure the power supply system (current, power voltage and wire) at your home can meet the normal loading requirements of electrical appliances. The electrical voltage and circuit frequency are listed on the appliance rating label.
• WARNING! Only connect the washing machine to a single, grounded (earthed) electrical outlet. Do not overload the outlet, as overloading can result in fire or electric shock. Insert the power plug securely. Do not use a power adaptor or extension cord.

Electrical installation advice

• To avoid electric shock, fire and malfunction, do not install this machine in a damp place. Do not pull out or insert the plug with wet hands or bare feet. Do not expose the appliance, cord or plug to rain, moisture or other liquid.
• Do not kink or damage the power cord, and position it out of the way so no one steps on or places anything on the cord or against it.
• Ensure the washer is unplugged from the power supply before installation. The plug must be accessible after installation.
• CAUTION! Do not use a power adaptor or extension cord.
• Unless your home is already fitted with a residual current device (safety switch), we recommend installing an RCD with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30 mA to provide additional safety protection when using electrical appliances. See your electrician for professional advice.
• All electrical connections must be made by qualified personnel, and all instructions in this manual as well as local safety regulations must be observed.

Make sure the washing machine is properly and securely installed before using it. Before using the washing machine for washing clothes, run a complete washing cycle without clothes, using the drum clean program.

Before using the washing machine for the first time, please review the following important points and make sure that:

• All transit bolts are removed.
- The washing machine is stable and level. If necessary, adjust the levelling feet to stabilise the machine (see page 13).
- The water supply hose is properly installed (see page 16) and the water tap is open.
- The power plug is firmly inserted into a nearby power point and power is switched on to the outlet.
- The drain hose is properly installed and secured into the laundry sink or a standpipe (see pages 14–15).
- Before using the washing machine for the first time, run a complete drum clean program without laundry items and without any detergent.

Door lock

- The door of the front load washing machine locks automatically when the machine is working. It cannot be opened without first pausing the wash program. To unlock the door, press the Start/Pause button. Then turn the program dial (knob) to the [O] position: the door will unlock after two minutes.

- The door will not unlock when the temperature inside the drum is above 60^ C, and/or when the water is above a certain level.

- At the end of a wash program, the door will unlock after two minutes.

- Suds may flow out of the open door if it is opened during the wash cycle. Beware of suds escaping from the machine and have a cloth/towel ready for catching spills.

CAUTION!

For your safety, do not turn the program dial to the position [O] position and remove your wash load while the machine is running, or when the power supply is cut off. The water temperature may be high and it may scald you. The door will automatically unlock at the end of a wash program when the temperature of the drum has cooled down.

Do not attempt to open the door forcibly. Doing so is unsafe and will cause damage to the locking mechanism.

Detergent recommendations

WARNING!

Do not use flammable and explosive or toxic solvents, petrol, alcohol or other chemicals in the machine.

Keep detergents and clothing care preparations out of reach of children.

• Only use low-sudsing detergent and clothing care preparations that are suitable for use in a front load washing machine, or in a top and front load machine. Detergents for top load machines are unsuitable because they tend to produce too much suds, which may cause overflowing from the detergent drawer.
• Use detergent in the amounts recommended on the detergent packaging. Dosage depends on your amount of washing, the degree of soiling, water hardness and the washing performance of your detergent. Using too little detergent will give poor washing results, but too much will affect rinse performance and may cause overflow of suds, which could interfere with machine operation. Do not overfill detergent!
• Pull open the detergent dispenser drawer and add detergent, as illustrated (Fig. 11) and described below.

or II The detergent compartments on the left and right side of the drawer are for low-sudsing detergent for the main wash (left) and prewash (right). If you are using powder detergent, we recommend you dissolve it in some water before adding it to one of the two compartments.

or The middle compartment is for fabric softener. It will be dispersed through the washing during the last rinse cycle. Concentrated fabric softeners should be diluted as required. Do not exceed the maximum level mark.

Instructions (Cont.)

Before each wash

• Before loading the washing machine

• Ensure that the washer is stable, level and properly connected to the power supply.
• Check that no young child or pet has climbed into the drum.
• Ensure that the water inlet hose and the drain hose are properly connected.
• Ensure that the drain hose is securely connected into the drain spout or sink.

- When loading the machine

- Empty all pockets of clothing to be washed. Hard, sharp objects such as coins, safety pins, paper clips, bra wires, nails, screws or stones can cause extensive damage to the appliance and block the pump. Any damage or malfunction resulting from foreign objects is not covered by your warranty and may lead to expensive repairs.

- Turn items with zippers inside out, close zippers, hooks and eyelets, fasten buckles and tie fabric belts. This will also help reduce impact noise when the items hit against the turning drum.

- Brush dirt, sand or pet hair off clothes and turn pockets inside out. Pretreat stains

- Turn items that pill easily inside out.

- Sort your washing into appropriate loads: whites, darks, cottons, synthetics, woollens, etc. Place small or delicate items into a wash bag for protection.

- Put your washing in the machine, loading items uniformly in the drum. For best results, include both larger and smaller items in a wash.

- Do not overload the washer; the maximum dry washing capacity is 8 kg.

- When closing the appliance door prior to starting the unit, ensure that items are not jammed in the door.

• CAUTION: Do NOT wash the following items in the washing machine:

• Jackets, raincoats, sleeping bags, fishing coats and similar clothes.
• Carpets or floor rugs.
• Underwire bras – instead, ensure these are placed in a closed garment bag before washing in the machine.
• Clothes that have any residues of flammable materials, as this may result in fire or explosion. For example, articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or dabbed with industrial chemicals, or combustible or explosive substances (such as wax, oil, paint, petrol, alcohol, degreasers, dry-cleaning solvents, kerosene, etc.). Items containing such substances must be washed by hand or rinsed thoroughly before machine-washing them.

- Single items, as this can cause unbalance problems during the wash or spin cycles. We suggest you always add a few more items to the wash to avoid such problems.

- Items such as ties, suits, evening attire; silk or fur attire; or anything else labelled unsuitable for machine-washing. Always check the garment label (see page 32).

Step-by-step washing instructions

1. Connect: Plug the machine in, switch on the power to the outlet and open the water tap.

2. Load: Open the door of the washer and load the machine following the guidelines on the previous page.

Mixing both large and small items gives better wash results and also helps distribute the load evenly during spinning. You will achieve the most efficient energy and water use when washing a full load. However, do not overload the machine as this causes creases and reduces cleaning efficiency.

When your washing is properly loaded in the machine, close the door and ensure that no items are caught in the door (Fig. 12).

2. Select a program: Rotate the Program dial to switch on the washing machine and select the required program. Always check your clothing labels for recommended wash and care instructions (see page 32).

3. Start: Press the Start/Pause button.

4. Finish: At the end of the wash program, the buzzer will sound to alert you that the program has finished. The machine will change into standby mode after 10 minutes of inactivity. Turn the dial back to the [O] position. Unplug the washing machine from the power supply and close the water tap.

5. Unload: Open the door and unload the washing machine. We recommend you leave the door slightly ajar so the drum can dry properly and to prevent mould and odour development.

Other Useful Information (Cont.)

Cleaning and care

To prolong the service life of the washing machine, keep it in good condition and perform regular maintenance.

WARNING!

For any type of cleaning and maintenance, make sure the washing machine is disconnected from the mains power supply and the water tap is closed.

Cleaning the cabinet (when required)

• Use a soft cloth to wipe any water or dirt off the washer housing.
• To remove dirt and stains, use a mild detergent solution and a damp cloth. Squeeze it almost dry to avoid leaving water residues.

WARNING!

Do not use any solvents, alcohol, harsh chemicals, alkaline or abrasive cleaning agents, or sharp objects, to avoid damaging the surface. Do not spray water directly onto the washer housing.

Cleaning the drum (every three months)

• Make sure all laundry items are removed from the drum, then wipe it clean with a soft dry or damp cloth.
• If you notice any rust residues left inside the drum from washing items with metal parts (such as buttons or zippers), wipe the residues off immediately with chlorine-free detergent. Never use steel wool.
• To remove dirt and/or detergent residues and scum build-up from the inside and outside of the washing machine's drum, run the Drum Clean program without any clothes or detergent.

CAUTION!

Cleaning the inside of your washing machine regularly is particularly important if you frequently use a cold wash cycle, especially if you also use a fabric softener. Liquid detergents can cause detergent scum to build up around the outside of the drum, which cold water will not remove and which can cause bacteria, unpleasant odours, and eventually soiling of your wash load.

Other Useful Information (Cont.)

Cleaning the detergent drawer (when required)

Remove detergent residues regularly. The detergent dispenser may be removed for cleaning.

• Pull open the dispenser drawer until you feel a resistance. Press down the release catch and at the same time pull the drawer right out of the machine (Fig. 14).
• Remove the siphon from the compartment and clean it.
• Clean the drawer using a brush and warm water (Fig. 15).
• Use a bottle brush to remove detergent residues from inside the housing (Fig. 16).
• Wipe all parts dry with a clean cloth, then reinstall the drawer back into its space.

NOTE: Do not use any solvents, alcohol, harsh chemicals, alkaline or abrasive cleaning agents, or sharp objects, to avoid damaging the surface.

Cleaning the water inlet filter

To avoid blockage of the mesh filters at the water tap or hose after long time use, we recommend you clean these filters every 6 months, or more often if there are frequent interruptions to the water supply.

CAUTION!

Before cleaning the water inlet filter, make sure you have turned off the water supply at the tap.

• Use pointed nose pliers to withdraw the plastic filter from the water inlet valve at the back of the washing machine (Fig. 18).
• Clean the filter with a soft brush, then assemble the cleaned filter back into the valve.
• Reconnect the water supply hose to the water tap on your wall and to the water inlet valve at the back of the washing machine. For more detailed connection instructions, please refer to page 16.

Freezing conditions

If the washing machine is exposed to temperatures below 0^ C, you should take certain precautions to prevent water freezing in the pipes.

1. Turn off the water tap.
2. Unscrew the water inlet hose.
3. Unhook the drain hose from the rear support and position the end of this hose and that of the inlet hose in a bowl. Run the spin program.
4. Disconnect the appliance.
5. Reconnect the inlet hose and reposition the drain hose.
6. When you intend to start the machine up again, make sure that the room temperature is above 0^ C.

If the temperature drop was unexpected and water has frozen in the water supply hose, proceed as follows:

1. Wrap a hot towel around the water tap and the water supply hose joint.
2. Disconnect the water supply hose and soak it in a tub of hot water of approximately 50^ C.
3. Pour about 2–3 litres of hot water (approximately 50^ C) into the drum of the washing machine.
4. When all frozen water has thawed, reconnect the water supply hose, open the tap and start the machine to check whether all blockages have been removed.

WARNING!

For any type of cleaning and maintenance, make sure the washing machine is disconnected from the mains power supply and the water tap is closed. Do not open the pump filter cover during the course of a wash program. If you are checking the drain pump after a hot water wash, take particular care as any residual water in the machine may be hot. Wait until the water has cooled down to avoid burns.

Drain pump maintenance

In order to avoid blockages created by excess lint, threads or items such as bobby pins, coins, etc., check the drain pump filter regularly, especially if the machine fails to drain the water or spin properly, or if you notice any unusual noises during the drain or spin cycles. We recommend you clean the filter every two months, or when there is a fault and the error code [E03] is displayed on the screen.

CAUTION: If you are checking the drain pump after a hot water wash, wait until any residual water has cooled to a safe level.

1. Open the lower cover using a screwdriver (Fig. 19).
2. Place a container underneath the drain pump filter when removing it, and always keep a rag nearby to dry up any water spillage.
3. Remove the plug. Any residual water will drain out (Fig. 20).
4. Remove any foreign objects. Clean the filter carefully with water and a soft brush (Fig. 21).
5. Screw the filter plug back into position.
6. Close the pump filter cover and secure it with the screw.
