There will be a delay to allow water to flow through washbowl drain holes into the outer bowl. After the delay, the drain pump will start pumping water out through the drain hose and then the pump will stop.

The drain pump will cycle ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’ in this manner several times, waiting each time for water to move from the washbowl to the outer bowl before starting again.

You will hear the drain pump switching on and off during draining stages of the wash program.

Detergent and fabric softener dispensers

Model 806 has a dispenser drawer that will automatically add detergent and fabric softener to your wash load, dispensing them at the correct time in the wash program you have selected. You will find the dispenser drawer in the top panel of your washing machine, above the washbowl. The dispenser can be used with powder or liquid detergents by following the instructions on pages 5 and 6.

If you prefer not to use the dispenser to add detergent, mix the detergent in one litre of hot or warm water and add pre-mixed detergent to your wash load in the washbowl.

You must use the dispenser drawer if you select the Delay start option.

Model 606 does not have a dispenser drawer. You add detergent mixed with water directly to the washbowl.

It does have a dispenser for fabric softener in the filter column at the top of the agitator. The fabric softener will be automatically dispensed at the correct time in the wash program. For instructions, refer page 6.
