Products That Might Damage Your Smart Drive®

Concentrated bleaches, nappy sanitisers and hydrocarbon solvents (eg petrol and paint thinners) can cause damage to the paintwork and components of your autowasher. (Be careful when washing garments stained with solvents as they are flammable. DO NOT put them in your dryer).

Do not use pre-treatment sprays or liquids on or near your autowasher as they can damage your machine’s control panel.

Use of dyes in your autowasher may cause staining of the plastic components. The dye will not damage the machine but we suggest you thoroughly clean your autowasher afterwards. We do not recommend the use of dye strippers in your autowasher.

Smart Drive® Sounds and Beeps

Your Smart Drive® will make sounds that you will not have heard from other autowashers.

During drain you will hear the pump in your machine turn off and on quickly about every 10 seconds. This is part of your Smart Drive® automatic lint removal system.

While draining your machine may give several low thuds. Your machine is checking that the water has drained before spinning.

Your Smart Drive® will beep at the end of the cycle and if you have used Spin Hold or Soak.

If your machine is beeping continuously or giving a musical series of beeps refer to page 33.

Automatic Lint System

Your Smart Drive® has a self cleaning lint system. It automatically separates the lint from the wash water, trapping the lint between the inner and outer bowls and flushes it out at the end of the wash.
