INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE WASHER

1.Before placing the items in the washer, sort the laundry by type of fabric and care label instructions (see page 8).

2.Make sure nothing is in the garment pockets to avoid damage to clothes, the machine or the filter.

3.Close zippers and hooks to prevent snagging.

4.Open the door (Fig. 8).

5.Load the laundry and close the door securely.

6.Pour detergent and fabric softener into the appropriate compartments in the detergent drawer (Fig. 9). Use only low sudsing detergent made for front- loading washers and follow label instructions.

The amount of detergent varies among the different brands, but for most detergents, you need only one or two tablespoons. Too much detergent could leave a residue on your clothes and possibly damage the washer.

NOTE: When using a liquid detergent, insert the special container supplied with the washer into the main wash compartment (Fig 9a). Pour the manufacturer’s recommended dosage of liquid detergent into the container (Fig 9b).

NOTE: Do not add detergent to the prewash compartment unless you are using a wash program that has a prewash cycle; otherwise, the machine could oversuds and spill onto the floor. Also, do not use liquid detergent for a prewash program because the detergent will be washed out the back of the drawer.

NOTE: It is not recommended that you use bleach in your Eurotech washer. If you need extra whitening, we recommend that you use a low-sudsing powder detergent with bleach additive.

NOTE: Excessive use of fabric softener can damage garments.

7.Close the detergent drawer securely (Fig 9c).

Caution! To avoid water spillage, do not open the detergent drawer while the machine is operating.

8.Select program options (see pages 9 and 10).

9.Turn the Temperature knob to the desired temperature (see pages 9 and 10).

10.Set the Program knob to the desired program (see pages 9 and 10).

11.Press the On button (see page 9). (The power indicator light should come on.)

NOTE: For safety reasons, there will be a two to three minute delay at the end of the program before you can open the door.

RECOMMENDED LOAD SIZES

To reduce wrinkling, you should determine the load size based on the type(s) of fabrics being washed.

Cotton and Linen Fabrics— These items should be washed in full loads because the tumble action of the tub along with the gentle rubbing, lifting and falling movement of the clothes gives the best cleaning result.

Permanent Press Fabrics—These items need more room to move freely during washing for the most wrinkle-free results. Therefore, fill the machine only half full for permanent press items.
