2. Press the Power button.
3. Select the required Program. Set Water Level, Temperature and Ultrasonic, if required.
4. Press the Preset button to select the desired time (in hours) for the wash to finish.
5. Add any detergents.
6. Close the washer lid and press the Start/Pause button.
7. After setting the Preset, the corresponding light will illuminate, and all other lights will be switched off after a minute. If you set the child lock, the Child Lock light will be on.
8. To check the preset program, press any button (except for the Power button); the program will be indicated for 5 seconds. During these 5 seconds you can press the Water Level button and set the water level.
9. To cancel the preset, shut off the power.
10. To change the preset time, first cancel the preset, then set it again.

Adding Detergent to a Preset Wash When using the preset wash, we recommend you use powder detergent. Do not add detergent directly to the wash tub ahead of the wash time. Follow the instructions below:
� Washing detergent: Either put detergent into the detergent box or if you prefer to put it directly into the wash tub, wrap the powder in a small cloth.
� Fabric softener: Dilute the softener with twice the amount of water, then pour the solution into the softener dispenser.
Other Functions Hot / Cold / Warm Water Wash This top load washing machine must be connected to both cold and hot water tap. You can then set it to use either cold water for a cold-water wash or hot water for a hot water wash or both hot and cold water for a warm water wash. To select the wash temperature, press the Temperature button.
� Cold wash: The corresponding indicator light is on. � Hot wash: The corresponding indicator light is on. � Warm wash: Both the Cold and Hot wash indicator lights are on.

Water Power
The water power affects the pause time of the pulsator and hence the intensity of the wash. It is automatically selected for the wash and rinse process; however, you can also adjust it yourself (except for the Delicate and Blanket programs). To adjust the water power level:
1. Press the Start/Pause button, then press the Soak/Variable Wash button. The display will show "H0".
2. Press the Soak/Variable Wash button again, repeatedly, to increase the water power level from "H1", "H2", "H3" to the strongest "H4".
3. Press the Soak/Variable Wash button again, repeatedly, to decrease the water power level from "L1", "L2", "L3" to the weakest "L4".
Setting the Water Level and Other Processes
You can set the water level for wash and rinse processes. For example, if you are sensitive to detergent residues in your washing, you may want to select a higher water level for rinsing.
1. Press the Wash button until the Wash light flashes. Press the Water Level button to choose the appropriate water level. Press the Wash button to set the wash time.
2. Press the Rinse button until the Rinse light flashes. Press the Water Level button to choose the appropriate water level. Press the Rinse button to set the number of rinses.
3. Press the Spin button until the Spin light flashes. Press the Spin button to set the Spin time.
4. Press the Start/Pause button. The washer will start operating according to the set values for wash and rinse water levels, number of rinses and spin time.
Fuzzy Control
� For certain wash programs, the machine automatically detects the weight of your wash load and selects the appropriate wash cycle processes.
� For the Normal and Heavy-Duty programs, the machine will automatically select the correct water power and level, wash and spin time and rinse type.
� For the Custom and Wool programs, the machine will automatically select the correct water level. Other wash cycle processes must be manually set.

Ultrasonic Function
� This top load washing machine is equipped with an ultrasonic pump, which generates thousands of vibrations per second into the wash tub. These vibrations help remove stains and dirt without chemical stain removers, thus reducing the required detergent amount and wash time.
� To select this feature, press and hold the Preset/Ultrasonic button for four seconds until the corresponding light is on and a buzzer sound is heard. Repeat the steps to cancel. When selecting the Ultrasonic wash, please use less detergent than usual.
Memory Function When you run the Normal, Custom or Heavy-Duty program, the machine memorises your settings (except for preset time and water level) for the next time use.
Note: This function is not available for the Wool, Blanket and Delicate programs.
Child Lock
� With the child lock activated, the machine will stop working automatically and sound an alarm if the washer lid is kept opened for 4 seconds.
� To set the child lock, press the Power button to switch on the power. Press and hold the Program button for 4 seconds until a buzzer sound is heard. Press the Start/Pause button, the child lock will be activated. Repeat the steps to cancel.
Early Start of Washing Washing will start when the water inside the tub has reached two levels below the set level, while the water will continue to flow in. This early start of washing will increase the wash time and allow the detergent to dissolve fully before the start of the set wash time. This function will be ineffective:
� When water level 1 (28L) or 2 (35L) is selected.
� When the Delicate or Blanket program is selected.
� When Soak function is selected, after the soaking process.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem The drain hose is leaking water during the first use.
There is still some water intake during the wash or rinse cycle.
At the beginning of the spin cycle, the tub turns first and then it stops.
During the spin cycle, the machine spins, then stops suddenly and takes in water again.
There is a sound like water flowing after spinning.
The control panel is still warm after the power is switched off.
The washer does not work at all.

Possible Solution
This is normal. It is residual water from the performance test in the factory. This is not a cause for concern.
When the water level is low, the washing machine will automatically refill during the washing or rinsing process. This is not a cause for concern.
This is intermittent spinning, and it results in better spinning performance.
If the washing is piled up at one side of the tub during the spin cycle, the washing machine automatically takes in more water to redistribute the load. Once the load is balanced again, the spin cycle will continue.
This is the sound of the balancing liquid in the balance ring. This helps reduce vibration during spinning.
This is caused by the memory circuitry still working.
� Check and ensure that the washer is connected properly to the power supply and power is switched on.
� If the power supply is on, first press the Power button, then press the Start/Pause button and then press the Preset button.
� If the machine still does not start the set program, check whether there has been a power failure or whether the fuse or circuit breaker has been activated.

Note: If none of the solutions help you solve the problem, then contact Kogan.com for support and maintenance.

Error Messages
When the following problems occur, the microcomputer inside the washer will detect the abnormal condition. An electronic buzzer will sound for approximately 10 seconds, an error message will flash, as shown below and the washer will stop operating.

CLEANING & CARE
To prolong the service life of the washing machine, keep it in good condition and perform regular maintenance. For any type of cleaning and maintenance, make sure the washing machine is disconnected from the mains power supply.
Cleaning the Washing Machine (when required)
� Use a soft cloth to wipe any water or dirt off the washer lid and housing. If using a damp cloth, squeeze it almost dry to avoid leaving water residues.
� The detergent box may be pulled out for cleaning, if required. Other inside parts should be wiped with a damp cloth, if necessary.
� Do not use any chemical, alkaline, or abrasive cleaning agents to avoid damaging the surface. Do not spray water directly onto the washer housing.
Important Tips
� If you frequently use a cold wash cycle, you will need to clean the inside of your washing machine regularly (every three months), especially if you use a fabric softener. Liquid detergents can cause detergent scum to build up around the outside of the inner tub, which cold water will not remove and which can cause bacteria, unpleasant odours and eventually soiling of your wash load.
� To remove scum build-up from the inside of a washing machine, run a cleaning cycle without clothes using the Heavy Duty program and hot water.
� As a cleaning agent, use a commercially available washing machine cleaning product (such as Trimat Washing Machine Cleaner) according to the instructions on the product or use a mix of bicarbonate of soda (1/2 cup) and white household vinegar (2 cups).
Cleaning the Lint Filter (suggested interval: every week) 1. Remove the lint filter as Illustrated below. 2. Open the filter and rinse it clean under running water, taking care not to damage any parts. 3. Reinstall the filter, making sure it fits securely behind the cover clasp and latches and locks securely into place.

Cleaning the Water Inlet Valve (suggested interval: every 6 months) To avoid blockage of the mesh filter at the water inlet after long time use, follow the below instructions:
1. Detach the water inlet hose, making sure you have turned off the water supply at the taps beforehand.
2. Take the mesh filter out of the water inlet valve and clean the filter with a soft brush.
3. Assemble the mesh filter back into the valve and reconnect the water inlet hose.

Cleaning the Hose Filter (suggested interval: every 6 months) To avoid blockage of the hose filter after long time use, follow the below instructions:
1. Detach the water inlet hose, making sure you have turned off the water supply at the taps beforehand.
2. Turn the nut anticlockwise to take off the hose. Clean the filter under running water or with a soft brush. Reconnect the hose.

Drain Pump Maintenance We recommend that you clean the drain pump filter regularly (at least once a month) to avoid blockages created by bobby pins, coins, and excess lint. Follow the below instructions:
1. Disconnect the washer from the power source. 2. If necessary, wait until the water has cooled down. 3. Place a container underneath the pump opening to collect any spillage. 4. Turn the filter cap anticlockwise to take it out gently. Always keep a rag nearby to
dry up water spillage when removing the pump filter.
5. To remove any objects from the filter, wash it thoroughly in a basin or under running water.
6. Put the cap back and place the filter back in its seat.
