Automatic Features...

Unbalanced load warning

Your machine has an inbuilt feature to prevent it spinning with an unbalanced load. This will minimise excessive vibration and

prolong the life of the machine. Before each spin the machine ‘senses’ the load within the drum and if the machine considers the

load to be unbalanced, it will not automatically spin. Instead the machine will try to redistribute the load to achieve balance by

tumbling backwards and forwards. If it is unable to balance the load after the fifth attempt the machine will abort the spin process

and the load will still be wet at the end of the programme.

If this safety feature is encountered you can spin the load after first opening the door, redistributing the load and selecting a fast or

slow, spin only programme. In the case of small loads or single items you may try adding some extra items of a comparable size to

help balance the load.

Variable Spin Speed

Use this control to reduce the programme spin

speed only.

If you leave this dial in the maximum position,

the spin speed will be the maximum which is

appropriate for whatever wash programme you

have chosen.

When the programme has finished, return the

dial to the original setting.

Note: You cannot alter the spin speed while

the machine is spinning.

●Only available on model W220VW.

Washcare Tips: Indicator Lights:

●Do not overload the machine

(maximum load 5.5kg).

In addition to reducing the

quality of the wash, this may also

damage your laundry and the

machine.

●We strongly recommend that you

do not wash in underwired bras

this machine. Should the wires

become detached it could cause

damage to your clothes and the

machine. If the washcare label

states that the bra is machine

washable, then we advise placing

it in a sealed pillow case or a

similar washbag. Remember, you

will be charged for a service call

resulting from a detached bra

wire.

●Do not use the machine if the

item to be washed does not have

a wash label.

Before washing laundry we

recommend that you do the

following:

●Pre-treat awkward stains with

washable treatments.

Do not wash any items that have

previously been treated with

solvents.
