PERFORMANCE CHANGES

The introduction of model GWL10 sees changes to the way the Smart Drive wash cycle is
composed.

ECIRCULATING MART RIVE YSTEM
The machine will start to fill with the temperature selected by the user. The bowl will only fill until
the clothes load is 100 per cent saturated with water. The machine will stop filling and begin the re-
circulating phase (for every cycle except Permanent Press, which features a traditional full bowl
fill). The water in the bowl is pumped up through the re-circulating hose and back into the bowl
onto the clothes, with a fan-like spray pattern. As the water recirculates, the bowl will stir, pausing
every 16 seconds. Short top-ups may occur, as garments absorb water, keeping the water level
constant. Recirculating this small amount of water dissolves detergent, activates enzymes plus
bleach that will then penetrates dirt at fibre level, accelerating the wash process.
After 3 minutes, the bowl will begin to fill with cooler water (cold controlled to 16°C/61°F) to the
level selected by the user, or, if auto is selected, to the level chosen by the machine and will begin
to agitate. Because the wash cycle has already been boosted, less agitation time is needed.
The default rinse setting for the regular cycle of the GWL10 consists of a series of multiple shower
rinses and spins that flush water through the clothes, assisted by the specially designed nozzle.
Fabric Softener cannot be dispensed during this rinse. If fabric softener is required, the Softener
Rinse Option must be selected. This will convert the machine to a spray and deep rinse, which will
allow the fabric softener to be dispensed correctly.
The Smart Driveä washing machine has 2 load sensing methods to ensure the right wash action is
used for the type and size of wash load.
