First Wash - Russell Hobbs RHBI75140WD1 Instruction Manual

First wash

Before using the machine for laundry, ensure you run the machine on a
cycle of 90°C, with detergent and without laundry.
Important note
If the power is turned off at any stage of the washing programme and then
turned on, your machine will continue the programme from the point
where it was interrupted. This is not harmful for your machine.
Recommendations
• Ensure you run the machine empty (without any clothes) on a full cycle
at 90°C with detergent before using the machine properly for the first
time.
• Put detergent into the drawer at the beginning of each wash.
• It is recommended that you wash only extremely dirty/soiled
laundry in a pre-washing programme.
• The amount of laundry that you put in your washing machine should not
exceed 7kg or 8kg depending on your model
• If your machine is not going to be used for a long period of time you
should unplug the appliance, turn off the water inlet and leave the door
slightly open. This is so that the inside of your machine will remain dry
and will not cause an unpleasant odour.
Before Use
• Plug in the machine
• Ensure the inlet hose is connected correctly and turn the inlet valve
from its closed position to the open position.
• Check that the drainage hose is connected correctly.
• Open the machine door.
• Place your laundry in your machine.
• Close the door of your machine until you hear the locking sound.
• Select the programme you require.
• Put detergent and softener in the detergent drawer, (if required).
• Press the Start/pause button.
