Asko Washer Features

Your new energy-efficient ASKO washer is designed to give you maximum cleaning performance using less water, energy and detergent. To make the most of the washer’s functions and features, we recommend that you read this manual carefully before using your machine for the first time. For operating instructions, refer to pages 10 through 20.

Below is an illustration of the external parts and features of your ASKO washer.

ENZYME STEP

To successfully remove all dirt and stains from fabric, the enzymes in your detergent need to work at a temperature between 105° and 140° F for a longer time period. This longer wash cycle gives the enzymes in the detergent ample time to remove stains, eliminating the need for stain sprays and spot removers.

five rinses and a Super Rinse option that adds two more. ASKO washers get the soil and detergent out of your laundry that most other washers leave in. That’s why your whites will remain white and your colored fabrics will remain bright.

SENSOR LEVEL CONTROL (SLC)

ASKO washers do not need high, medium, or low water level settings to compensate for different sized loads. ASKO units have a consumption sensor— Sensor Level Control— that ensures the correct amount of water is pumped into the machine for any size load. It even compensates for fabric saturation, letting in more water if needed. This eliminates worry about selecting the right water level setting for each laundry load.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Because wash water temperature is a major factor in getting laundry clean, ASKO washers have built-in heating elements and a sensor that keeps the temperature to within +/-1° F of the selected program temperature.

ASKO washers are programmed not to advance in a cycle until the selected water temperature is reached, so the length of the cycles may vary, depending upon the household cold water temperature, the amount of laundry in the washer, and the wash temperature setting.

SUPER RINSE OPTION

This option is designed for people with sensitive skin or who are allergic to detergents. It can also be used for large, heavily soiled loads.

SPIN OPTIONS

ASKO washers have faster spin speeds than most other washers, which may decrease the time it takes to dry your laundry. The spin speeds range from 400 rpm to 1600 rpm, depending on the model. You can also turn the spin cycle off.
