Frequently Asked Questions - L-511 EDESA

How do I install the Edesa L-511 washing machine?

Remove all packaging, adjust the feet to level the machine, connect the water inlet hose to a cold water tap, and insert the drain hose into a standpipe or sink. Ensure the machine is on a stable surface and the power cord is plugged into a grounded outlet.

What should I do if the machine does not start?

Check that the door is properly closed, the water supply is turned on, and the power cord is connected. Also, ensure the program selector is turned to a valid cycle and the Start/Pause button is pressed.

How can I clean the lint filter?

Open the filter cover at the bottom front, unscrew the filter by turning it counterclockwise, remove any lint or debris, rinse under running water, and reassemble. Perform this every 1-2 months.

Why is the machine not draining?

Check if the drain hose is kinked or blocked. Clean the filter (see previous question). If the issue persists, the drain pump may be faulty. Refer to the manual for pump inspection.

What does error code E01 mean?

Error E01 indicates a door lock issue. Try reopening and closing the door firmly. If the error persists, the door lock assembly may need replacement.

How do I use the quick wash program?

Select the 'Quick' program on the dial; this cycle typically lasts 30-45 minutes. It is suitable for lightly soiled clothes. Adjust additional options like spin speed if needed.

Can I wash delicate fabrics like silk?

Yes, use the 'Delicates' program with a low spin speed (400 rpm). Place silk items in a laundry bag and use a gentle detergent. Avoid overloading.

How often should I descale the machine?

Descaling is recommended every 3 months, especially in hard water areas. Use a commercial descaling agent or a mixture of citric acid and water; run a hot empty cycle without clothes.

What is the maximum load capacity?

The maximum dry load is 5 kg. Overloading may cause poor washing results and excessive vibration.

How can I replace the water inlet hose?

Turn off the water supply and disconnect the old hose. Attach the new hose, ensuring the rubber washers are in place, and tighten the connections by hand. Test for leaks before use.

2 CONNECTION TO THE WATER MAINSLEVELATION

You will find the water-input pipe inside the drum:

a Connect the bent end of the pipe at the screw entrance of the electrically operated valve situated at the back of the machine.

b Connect the other end of the tube to the water supply. Tighten the connection nut well.

We recommend you have a fixed drainage exit at a distance of between 50 and 70 cm from the floor.

Ensure that the drainage pipe is not too tight and that there are no folds or bottlenecks.

IMPORTANT

It is important that the elbow of the pipe is properly fixed at the exit so that it doesn't fall, with the consequent risk of flooding.

If your washing machine has an input for hot water, connect the tube with the red threading to the hot water tap and to the electrically operated valve with the red filter.

3 LEVELLING

Level the washing machine by using the adjustable feet. This will reduce the noise level and ensure that the machine will not move when in operation.

WASHING MACHINE

HOW TO USE THE MACHINE. PRACTICAL TIPS

1 PREPARING THE LAUNDRY BEFORE A WASH

Before putting the laundry in the drum, ensure that all the pockets are empty. Small objects can obstruct the motor pump for water discharge.

Close-up of a black fabric garment with a magnified inset showing hand holding small objects (no text or symbols visible)

Sort your laundry according to material or make-up. We

recommend you use delicate programmes for delicate garments. Woollens may be wa- hed in a special wool programme.

IMPORTA

Please ensure that your woollen garments are machine washable before running the wool programme.

Sort your laundry according to how soiled it is.

a Lightly soiled garments should preferably be washed in a short, cold programme.

b Normally soiled garments should be washed in a programme without pre-wash.

c Heavily soiled garments may be washed in a long programme with pre-wash.

Sort your laundry according to the colours. Wash whites and coloureds separately.

Diagram showing a washing machine with two circular insets of a basket containing clothes, no text or symbols present.

IMPORTANT

We remind you to load the washing machine at its maximum capacity. This will save water and energy.

IWe recommend that you wash garments of different sizes in the same wash programme, if possible, in order to reinforce the washing effects. This also favours the distribution of the laundry inside the drum at the spinning stage, which will mean the machine will work more silently.

2 USE OF DETERGENT AND ADDITIVES

Before you start the wash programme, introduce the detergent or additive in the detergent drawer. The detergent drawer of your washing machine has three compartments.

IMPORTANT

The liquid level should never exceed the MAX reference mark on the side of the drawer.

You may also use liquid detergents with this washing machine, using the optional drawer that may be acquired through the Technical Support Network.

The optional drawer should be placed in the wash compartment.

Remember that the dose of detergent to be used always depends on

● The amount of laundry to be washed.
● How soiled the laundry is.
● The hardness of the water (You can request information on the water hardness from the competent local entities).

Close-up of a white plastic bag with internal compartments, shown in two views: one close-up and one magnified inset (no visible text or symbols)

ECOLOGICAL NOTE

Remember that there are concentrated detergents that are more careful with nature and the environment.

Using more detergent than is needed does not improve the wash results and as well as being a waste of money, it has a negative effect on the preservation of the environment.

Therefore, please follow the instructions supplied by the manufacturer of the detergent.

3 SELECTING THE WASH PROGRAMME

There are four types of programme:

a Normal pro- grammes
bDelicate pro- grammes
©Wool programmes
dAuxiliary programmes

To select a wash programme, proceed as follow:

1. Switch the washing machine ON by pressing the master switch (the pilot light above the master switch will come on).
2. Select the wash programme by turning the Programme Selector Dial.

When this is done the spin speed light for this programme will come on.

If your washing machine has a display, it will light up for a few seconds when the programme is selected, showing P + programme number (P01, P02, etc.). It will then show the approximate duration in minutes.

The time shown on the display will vary according to the stage the programme is at.

Close-up of a hand pressing a button on a white surface, with no visible text or symbols.

ECOLOGICAL NOTE

We recommend you choose a wash programme without pre-wash whenever possible. This will save you money and help protect the environment.

* Check if the machine maximum load capacity is 5 or 6 on the guarantee certificate that appears on the front page of this manual. (*) Energy label data based on this programme, in accordance with EN60456.NOTE: The kWh and litre consumption, as well as the programme duration given are for the maximum load case. They may vary depending on the type and amount of laundry, mains water pressure, etc.

The wash options should always be selected after the wash programme has been chosen. If the programme is changed during the selection, the options previously selected will be cancelled out.

After switching on the washing machine by pressing the master switch, select the desired options. When these are selected the corresponding light will go on next to each selection switch.

The following options are available:

Button: Extra rinse

This increases the final rinse given to the clothes. It is suitable for large loads and for washing clothes for people with sensitive skin. It increases water consumption!

Button: wash time reduction

When this option is selected the programme time is reduced by up to a third (see programme table). If your washing machine has a display, the new time will appear when it is pressed.

Button: anti crease

This stops the cycle after the last rinse and the clothes remain wet. When the function is deactivated the washing machine continues the programme, draining and spinning. You can use it for example when you are not at home and you want to delay the spin dry until you arrive, to prevent the clothes becoming creased after spinning and being left in the drum.

Button: Spin speed select

The programme selected goes together with a certain spin speed. This can be seen on the row of pilot lights at the bottom.

If necessary, the spin speed can be changed or the spin-dry can be skipped completely.

To do this, press the spin speed select button one or more times until the desired option lights up.

Option: spin suppression

With this option the programme will run leaving out the final spin dry. It is used to prevent creating when washing special fabrics.

Button: delay selector

This option is only available if your washing machine has a display. It can be selected after choosing the wash programme.

To select the hours of delay time, press or hold down the button until the desired number of hours of delay time appear on the display.

Cancelling the delay

To cancel the delay, either press the delay button repeatedly or hold it down. When it reaches 24 hours delay, if it is pressed one more time it will cancel the delay and the approximate programme duration will appear on the display.

IMPORTANT

If the programme is changed or the master switch is switched off while the additional functions mentioned up to here are being selected, all the functions chosen up to this point will be cancelled.

Selecting the safety lock

Safety lock function

The safety lock ensures that the programme and wash options selected will not be affected if any of the buttons are accidentally pressed (by children, for example).

Activating the safety lock

The safety lock is activated by pressing the Extra Rinse and Wash Time Reduction buttons at the same time and holding them down for at least 3 seconds.

The On button light will then start to flash, showing that the safety lock is on, and the washing machine will start up. The safety lock should be activated after selecting the wash programme and all its options plus the desired time delay.

Deactivating the safety lock

The safety lock is cancelled out when the wash programme ends and when the STOP light comes on.

If you wish to deactivate the safety lock before the programme has finished, press the Extra Rinse and Wash Time

Reduction buttons and hold them down for at least 3 seconds. The light will then go off and remain in pause status.

Turning off the master switch will not cancel the safety lock. When the washing machine is started up again the programme will continue to run from where it has left off.

5 COMMISSIONING

In order to switch on the washing machine, press the on/off button.

The display situated over the button will light up and the washing machine will start the selected programme with the options.

If your washing machine has a display, you will be able to see how many minutes are left until the end of the wash.

Switching on the delay

This consists of pressing the on/off button after selecting the programme, the wash options and the delay time.

When pressed, the display will flash in cycles of 2 seconds ON and 2 seconds OFF during the whole of the period selected as the delay,

whereas the time shall be discounted by the hour, until the last hour, when it will show the minutes left until the programme begins.

IMPORTANT

If you need to add or remove a garment, select pause and ensure that the water level is not over the door and that the inside temperature is not high. If you press the ON button, the wash will recommence at the same stage of the cycle where it stopped.

6 STAGES IN WASH PROGRAMME

The active phases at each point of the programme shall appear as the programme progresses.

Any option button may be selected as long as the phase in the programme in which it takes effect has not ended and as long as the programme allows this option. Pressing the delay button during the wash has

no effect on the washing machine.

IMPORTANT

If you use the selector to change programmes while the machine is working, it will enter the PAUSE mode. The on/off light will go off and the programme will be annulled.

If you press the On/ Off button during the wash, the washing machine will enter the PAUSE mode and this button's light will turn off.

7 POWER CUTS

If there is a power cut, when the electricity comes back the washing machine will continue to run from where it left off

(it has a memory of several hours). The same happens if the master switch is switched on and off.

8 TIPS

● To reduce spin-drying noise: level the washing machine using its adjustable legs.
- Whenever possible, wash different-sized clothes together in the same wash programme, as this helps the distribution of the clothes in the drum when spinning.
● All models have a spin safety system which prevents spin-drying from taking place if the clothes are out of balance in the drum. This prevents excessive vibration or thumping. If the clothes should come out too wet, redistribute them uniformly in the drum and spin-dry again.

ECOLOGICAL NOTE

To protect the environment, your washing machine is provided with a system which enables it to adapt to the different conditions of use (load and fabric types). This means that during the wash process the amount of water you can see through the door will appear rather low, but this is nothing to worry about, as the degree of wash and rinse efficiency will be optimum.

WASHING MACHINE

MAINTAINING AND CLEANING THE MACHINE

After each wash, leave the porthole door open for a while to let the air circulate freely inside the machine.

Depending on the hardness of the water, we recommend running a complete wash cycle using a decalcifying product. This will prolong the life of your washing machine.

IMPORTANT

Before any cleaning or maintenance operations, we recommend you disconnect the washing machine from the electricity mains.

1 CLEANING THE DETERGENT DRAWER

You should clean the detergent drawer whenever you notice residues of any product inside it.

a Fully extract the detergent drawer by pulling out the flap.
b Clean the compartments in the drawer. Use warm water and a brush.
c Also, clean the sip-hons in the additive drawer.

Replace the drawer in the washing machine.

2 CLEANING THE ACCESSIBLE FILTER

Clean the accessible filter whenever the drainage pump is blocked by foreign bodies.

a Loosen the base by gently pulling on the sides and turning downwards. Then undo the fasteners. If there is no side access, introduce a small screwdriver in the three slots on the upper part of the base, in order to lever it and loosen the hooks.
b Use a plate or other container under the filter to collect the water that will be released when it is loosened.
cTurn the filter a quarter- or halfway sideways towards the left. Water will start to come out.
When you are finished taking the water out of the washing machine, turn the filter around several times until you can take it out fully.
e Remove any objects or fluff that may be in the filter.
f Replace the filter and the base in their places.

IMPORTANT

In order to avoid burns, this operation should not be carried out when the wash water temperature is over 30°C.

3 CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE MACHINE

In order to clean the outside of the washing machine, use warm soapy water or a soft, non-abrasive cleaning agent that does not contain solvents.

Then dry it well with a soft cloth.

WASHING MACHINE

SAFETY AND TROUBLESHOOTING

If you detect a problem when using your washing machine, you may be able to solve it after consulting the following troubleshooting tips. If you cannot find the solution, disconnect the machine and contact the TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICE

IMPORTANT

Please do not open the machine under any circumstances. There is no fuse or similar component inside that may be replaced by the user.

- Why doesn't the washing machine start working?

Perhaps

– There is no voltage in the electricity mains.
– The fuses of the electrical fittings are blown.
- The washing machine is not connected to the electricity mains.

- You didn't press the on/off button(this button's light should be on)

– The programme selector dial is not out.

- The door of the washing machine isn't closed properly. When this is detected, the displays that show "pre-wash" or "end" flash and F04 appears on the display of the washing machine. Then you should check if the door is open and close it properly.

- Why does the washing machine vibrate or make too much noise?

Perhaps:

– The internal fastening screws were not removed.
– The washing machine is not level.

- Why doesn't the washing machine fill with water?

• When this fault is detected, the Wash and Rinse displays will flash in turn. If your washing machine has a display, it will show F01.
• This water input fault could be due to an interruption in the water supply, water input tap or because the water input filter on the washing machine is blocked.
• Therefore, you should take the following steps: wait until the water supply starts again, open the water input tap or loosen the water input pipe and clean its filter.

- Why doesn't the washing machine drain or spin?

• When this fault is detected, the Rinse and End displays will flash in turn. If your washing machine has a display, it will show F02.
• Possible reasons for this fault may be: obstruction in the drain motor pump in the washing machine, obstruction in the drainage piping of the building or incorrect electrical connection of the motor pump.
  – Action: if the reason for the fault is an obstruction in the motor-pump, follow the steps in section 2. Maintaining and cleaning the machine.

- Why doesn't the washing machine spin the clothes?

- When this fault is detected, the Pre-wash and Wash displays will flash in turn. If your washing machine has a display, it will show F03.

- This fault occurs because the laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum, which can cause too much vibration.

– Solution: return to the spin stage.

- Is it better to put the detergent in the drawer or directly in the drum?

The use of “detergent tablets” that go directly into the drum is increasingly common. These tablets wash well and do not damage the laundry. However, other powder and liquid detergents contain aggressive components that may damage clothes if applied directly to the garments. In this case, we recommend you use the drawer

- Why can't I see water in the drum?

This could be because the washing machine has a system that allows it to adapt to the laundry load and the type of material, adjusting the water level and the energy used with a view to preserving the environment. This means that during the wash process, although the amount of water you can see through the porthole door may seem low, there is no need to worry. The wash and rinse will be highly efficient.

• Why is water coming out of the drawer?

Perhaps the drawer or dispenser needs cleaning. This simple operation is described in Maintaining and cleaning the machine;

1- Cleaning the detergent drawer.

- Why can't I open the porthole door immediately after the wash ends?

Modern washing machines are equipped with safety systems to protect users. One of these is that it is not possible to open the washing machine until the drum has come to a complete halt. That is why it takes about 2 minutes before you can open the porthole door.

- Other faults

- The washing machine is able to detect other faults. When this happens, all the displays for the various wash stages will flash or different errors will appear on the display, F05, F06.....,F10.

– These faults may be due to very diverse causes.

– Solution: call the OFFICIAL TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICE
