- Do not wash or dry articles that have been cleaned, washed, soaked in or dabbed with combustible or explosive substances (such as oil, paint, gasoline, degreasers, dry cleaning solvents, kerosene etc). This may result in fire or explosions.
- Before using the machine for the first time, check that the transit bolt at the rear of the machine has been removed (refer topic Safety Guidelines for installation).
- Turn OFF the stopcock if the machine is to be left for any length of time (eg holidays) especially if there is no floor drain (gully) in the immediate vicinity.
- This appliance can be used by children aged 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instructions concerning the use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
- Children should not play with the appliance.
- Cleaning and user maintenance should not be performed by children without supervision.
Caution
- The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between the machine and an effective earthing system, which complies with local and national regulations. It is most important that a qualified electrician regularly tests this basic safety requirement. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system.
- For safety reasons do not operate this appliance on an extension cable. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance. There is danger of overheating.
The machine is built in accordance with current safety requirements.
Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user, for which the manufacturer cannot accept responsibility. Only authorised IFB personnel should undertake repairs. - The machine is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when it is switched OFF at the wall socket and the plug is taken out, or it is switched OFF from the main source, or the main fuse is taken out or the MCB switched OFF. This machine must only be connected to the onsite water supply using a new hose kit. Old hoses must not be reused. Only genuine IFB original spare parts must replace faulty components. Only when these parts are fitted can the safety standards of the machine be guaranteed.
If the connection cable is faulty it must be replaced only by an IFB approved service technician to protect the user from danger. - A washer and dryer should never be stacked without using the proper stacking kit. Doing so is extremely dangerous, as the dryer may vibrate off the washing machine during use.
Warnings
- Do not pull the cord to disconnect the plug. Hold the plug itself. Do not insert or remove the plug with damp hands.
- Do not drag or move the washing machine if it contains the wash load or when in operation.
- Do not spill water over the machine. In case of spillage, wipe dry. Avoid the machine coming in contact with floor cleaning chemicals.
- Do not wash or spray water over the switch or control panel.
- Do not wash shoes or utensils in the machine.
- Use detergent recommended for washing machines.
- Keep your machine dry to avoid corrosion/rusting. Take special care to wipe the machine after cleaning coin trap.
- Check label on garments for determining conditions under which fabrics are to be washed.
- The machine is tested with water during assembly for performance checking. Condensed droplets of water may remain inside the drum. It is advisable to run the machine without a wash load in Cotton maximum temperature program with detergent for the first time after installation. Ensure that the machine is connected to a 3 pin socket with good earthing and 1 6 Amp MCB or other automatic short circuit protection devices.
- Textiles that have been pre-treated in solvent-based cleaning agents must be thoroughly rinsed in clean water before being washed in the machine.
- Never use solvent-based cleaning agents in this machine, as this may result in damage to component parts and create toxic fumes. Such detergents also pose a threat of fire and explosion hazards.
- Only use dyes specified by the manufacturer as suitable for use in a domestic washing machine. Always read the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
- Colour run and dye removers contain sulphur compounds, which can cause damage such as corrosion. Do not use such products in this machine.
- For machines with a porthole door, remember that the porthole glass will be hot when washing at very high temperatures. Do not let children touch it.
- Always make sure that the drum is stationary before removing clothes. Reaching into a moving drum is extremely dangerous.
Flooding danger
- While hooking the drain hose into a wash basin, check that the water drains OFF quickly to prevent the sink from overflowing. Make sure the drain hose is secure so that the force of the water flowing out of the hose does not dislodge it. Otherwise this will result in flooding.
- Take care to ensure that foreign objects (eg nails, pins, coins, paper clips etc) do not find their way into the machine with the washing. These may damage components of the machine (eg suds container, drum etc), which in turn can result in damage to the washing.

Getting Started With Your Machine
Installing your machine & safety guidelines
Select the right spot
Unpack and place the new washing machine in proximity to both water and electrical connections. Ensure that the floor is properly levelled.
Removing the transit bolts
- Use a spanner to remove the transit bolts.
- Insert plastic caps provided.
- Keep the transit bolts carefully as they will be required in case you need to shift the machine again.
- Please do not operate the machine until the transit bolts have been removed.
Leveling
- Level the machine by using the adjustable screws provided at the bottom for levelling.
Make sure that the machine rests on all four feet on a level surface.
Connection to the water supply
The water inlet of the machine has a collar with parallel internal threads.
- The water supply point with an external thread/parallel thread should be available within 1 metre of the machine location.
Do not stretch the water supply hose.
Connection to the drain hose
- The machine drains via a drain pump.
- Direct the end of drain hose into a sink or a basin.
The drain hose should not be placed higher than 1 00 cm and not lower than 60 cm above the floor.

Tips for best results
Before washing
- Empty all pockets.
- Remove metals parts.
- Close any zips and fasten hooks etc before washing.
- Do not wash anything in the machine that is specified as non-machine washable on the wash care label.
While sorting
- Separate polyester fabrics from cotton fabrics.
- Try to have a mix of large and small clothes in each wash load.
- Dark clothes should be washed separately and not with whites.
While loading
- Load large items first, preferably half the total wash load.
- Do not wash single items-add one or two similar items.
- Place small items such as infants' socks, nylon stockings, handkerchiefs etc in a laundry bag, pillow case or something similar, as they may get caught around the door. This will also save your laundry from getting lost.
Water softening
- Use water softening agents or adjust detergent dosage as recommended by the detergent manufacturer in case of hard water.
Easy tips to remove stains
- Ensure you use warm water for soaking or pre washing stained laundry.
- Fresh stains are easier to remove.
- Knowing what kind of stain it is, how old it is, what kind of fabric it is, and whether the fabric is color fast (check the care label) always helps treat a stain better.
- Always start with cold or warm water as hot water can set in stains. Washing and drying can sometimes set in stains.
- When bleach is recommended, always use a fabric-safe one. Put the stained area face down on a paper towel or white cloth. Apply the stain remover to the back of the stain. This forces the stain off the fabric instead of through it.
