Testing the installation

Refer to the programme guide for details of how to select programmes.
1. Turn on the water supply and check for leaks from fill hoses.
2. Switch on the electricity supply.
3. Select a spin programme and then press the on/off button to start the
machine.
Allow the programme to continue for one minute and then switch off the
machine via the on/off button. This will remove any water remaining in the
machine from factory testing.
4. To check for cold water filling to the machine:
Select a rinse programme and press the on/off button to start the machine.
Allow the tumble action to continue until the water has pumped out.
Check that the drain outlet is not leaking or overflowing.
5. Switch off the machine via the on/off button at the end of the cycle.
6. To check for hot water filling to the machine:
Select programme 1 and press the on/off button to start the machine.
Allow the wash action to continue for one minute, then switch the machine off
via the on/off button.
Alternatively, both inlets can be connected to the cold water supply by using a
suitable adaptor.
7. Select a spin programme and press the on/off button to switch the machine
on. If the machine takes longer than one minute to empty check the drain
hoses for kinks.
Installation testing is now complete.
To ensure the drum is thoroughly clean after testing and storage, select
programme 1 and run the machine for a complete cycle using only wash
detergent and water.
If the machine is not to be used immediately, switch off the mains power supply
and remove the plug from the power socket. We also recommend that the water
stop taps are turned off.
Note: it is advisable to isolate the washing machine
from the water and electricity supplies after each wash.
