Automatic Features
Auto Half Load
Auto half load adjusts the amount of water in the wash load depending on the absorbency of garments
in the wash load.
Fabric Conditioner Dispensing
Dispensing of fabric conditioner is achieved by energising both the Pre-Wash and Main Wash cold
valves.
Out of Balance Protection
The machine has an inbuilt feature to prevent spinning with an unbalanced load. A calculation via the
motor tacho and control board detects the current drawn by the motor during distribution.
Before each spin, the controls senses the load within the drum and if the load is calculated to be out of
balance the machine will not automatically spin to the full speed.
There are two levels of out of balance, level 1 @ 480 grammes and level 2 @ 1030 grammes.
If the out of balance is below level 1 the machine will spin at full speed, if between level 1 and level 2
the machine will spin at the reduced speed of 600 rpm and above level 2 spin at reduced speed of 400
rpm. There are 15 attempts at level 1 with 57 attempts in total, this being the same for both cotton and
synthetic spins.
The wool spin has one level of out of balance @ 1.8 kg. The controls will make three attempts to
achieve a balance, if after three attempts a balance is not achieved; the spin is reduced to a speed of
90 rpm.
