  • Install the machine in a room with adequate ventilation. Avoid a room with no windows. The back of the machine should be at least 4 inches (100 mm) away from the wall Note If the appliance is housed in a built-in cabinet, proper ventilation must be ensured.

• Do not install the machine in a damp area or bathroom with exposure to a direct shower.
• Protect the machine from direct sunlight and rainfall.
• Do not place the machine on a slanting, uneven or unstable surface.
• Your product uses higher spin speeds to remove water at the end of wash cycle.
• In order to ensure that the product operates more silently and vibration free, it must be levelled and balanced on its feet such that all four washer feet presses with equal pressure against the floor.
• 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.

Risks of Improper Handling of eWaste

eWaste usually includes components which, if disposed of improperly, hold environmental consequences such as air, water and soil pollution and also pose risks to human health. By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will

potential negative consequences for the environment and human health. Components and materials used in the

manufacture of this washing machine are fully compliant with provisions of hazardous substances outlined in eWaste Management Rules, 2016.

For Detailed Information and Disposal Request

During the drying process, if the program is interrupted by pressing the Start/Pause button, starting any other program will display 'Hot' on the display, provided the temperature inside the drum is above 50°C.

Note With Cotton Eco 60** program, the actual wash temperature attained will be lower than 60°C, although the wash performance will be at par with the cotton 60°C program.

• Depending on water pressure, water hardness, water inlet temperature, quantity and type of textile, detergent used, foam detection, unbalance detection, degree of soiling, ambient condition, selected additional function and power supply fluctuations, the actual values given in the user manual, or with the machine, can deviate from the declared standard values as they are tested according to laboratory conditions.
• Program time can also skip or extend due to above mentioned conditions.
  • The last run program is selected by default.
• Machine detects the weight of the laundry during the program run and automatically adjusts the Time/Rinse Water. Press and hold the Options button once during the program run to check the total number of wash cycles completed by your washing machine.

Note The design and specifications (includes colour/shades/aesthetic/features etc.) are subject to change without prior notice due to continuous improvement and product development.

Some of the wash programs are designed to rotate with different drum movements and RPMs. It should not be interpreted as a fault. Do not close the tap during drying phase.

WASHING MACHINE CARE

High-Low Voltage Protection

A smart microcontroller continuously monitors the online voltage fluctuations and temporarily stops the program to protect the machine in case the voltage drops below 150 ± 10 V or rises above 270 ± 10 V. The program will resume once the voltage is within safe operating range.

Program Memory Backup

The program resumes from where it left off in case of power failure. No repetition of cycles saves time, water, power and adds longevity to the machine.

USER CONVENIENCE

Auto Imbalance System

This system automatically determines the unbalanced clothes in the machines and redistributes the clothes, making the machine extremely stable in the spin cycle.

Child Lock

Prevents children from tampering with machine settings.

Laundry Add

Lets you add laundry even after the wash cycle has started.

Anti Crease

Reduces wrinkling of clothes after the final spin, making them easy to iron.

Auto Foam Control System

Extra foam generated in the machine is detected by special sensors and is controlled.

Tub Clean

Eliminates any impurities, scaling, bacteria and unpleasant smells from the washing machine.

CradleWash®

India's first wash program for delicate fabrics provides gentle care that uses a soft to-and-fro, rocking movement.

Drum Lamp

Tips for best results

Before washing

• Empty all pockets.
- Remove metal parts.
- Close any zips and fasten hooks etc before washing.
- Do not wash anything in the machine that is specified as non-machine washable on the wash care label.

While sorting

• Separate polyester fabrics from cotton fabrics.
• Try to have a mix of large and small clothes in each wash load.
• Dark clothes should be washed separately and not with whites.

While loading

• Load large items first, preferably half the wash load.
• Do not wash single items—add one or two similar items.
• Place small items such as infants' socks, nylon stockings, handkerchiefs etc in a Wash Care bag., pillow case or something similar as they may get caught around the door. This will also save your laundry from getting lost.

Water softening

- In case of hard water, use water softening agents or adjust detergent dosage as recommended by the detergent manufacturer.

Easy tips to remove stains

• Ensure you use warm water for soaking or pre washing stained laundry.
• Fresh stains are easier to remove.
• Knowing what kind of stain it is, how old it is, what kind of fabric it is and whether the fabric is colour-fast (check the care label) always helps treat a stain better.
  • Always start with cold or warm water as hot water can set in stains. Washing and drying can sometimes set in stains.
• When bleach is recommended, always use a fabric safe one.
• Put the stained area face down on a paper towel or white cloth. Apply the stain remover to the back of the stain. This forces the stain off the fabric instead of through it.

Maintenance and cleaning of your washing machine

Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer

• Remove detergent residues regularly.
  • Pull out the detergent dispenser drawer.
• Clean the detergent dispenser drawer with warm water.
• Clean the siphon. Remove the siphon from the compartment and wash under running warm water.
• Detergent residues can build up in the water jets on top of the detergent dispenser drawer housing.
• Before fixing the detergent dispenser drawer, use a bottle brush to clean them out.

Cleaning the water hose mesh filter

• Turn OFF taps. Disconnect power supply to the machine. Unscrew the inlet hose from the machine and tap. Drain water from the hose.
• Remove the filter mesh from the tap end of the inlet hose and clean under running water with a brush.
• Pull the sieve out of the magnetic valve with a pair of flat nosed pliers. Clean the sieve under running water with a brush. Then fit the sieve back into the valve.

- Screw the inlet hose back to the machine and the tap. Ensure that the sieve and filter are in place. Turn ON the water tap to check if the connection is watertight.

Note Presence of excess dirt/sediments/sand in water can affect the wash quality as well as the reliability of water inlet valve.

Cleaning the filter

- Filter should be cleaned frequently in order to increase the life of the drain pump.

• Open the detachable bottom door by using a coin or key.
• Place a shallow container near the bottom door. Pull out the drain hose and open the drain plug to drain the water from the machine into the container.
  • After draining the water through the drain plug, open the filter by rotating it anti-clockwise and remove foreign objects like coins, pins or hooks, if any.

• Tighten the filter and drain plug to their original positions and close the bottom door.
• Do not open the filter during a program run.

Use of Descalant

• Use Descale minimum after 24 months of installation.
• Do not use Descale with Tub clean. Tub clean does not need any additive.
• Use Descale after 6 months or more as per hardness of water in your water supplies.
• Use only one Descale packet one time. Do not use more.
