Instructions for washing machine Indesit WISL 85
The instructions for the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine, as well as for other machines, are very extensive and contain a large amount of useful information for all occasions. On the one hand, this is good, but on the other, the user gets lost in this array of information, unable to isolate the main thing. We decided to rewrite the instructions, thus creating a short and succinct version, leaving only the main thing. This is what we got.
Installation without errors
Only a master can install the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine quickly and professionally. Preferably a specialist from an authorized service center. But if you carefully read the instructions, then you have a chance to do it no worse, although it will take more time.
Improper installation of the Indesit washing machine can cause breakdowns that will be impossible to repair without a professional.
Let's start by unpacking the washing machine, checking it externally and removing the transport bolts. We will not describe this in detail, especially since we have already done this as part of the publication Instructions for washing machine Indesit WISL 82. Let's install the washing machine. Immediately before installing the machine, it is necessary to seriously prepare the place for it.
- Remodel the floor so that it becomes stronger and smoother, remove all soft coverings.
- Move the surrounding interior items apart so that the machine stands up and there is still some gap left.
- Invite an electrician to make a new socket for the washing machine. We take a moisture-resistant socket housing, a copper wire of 1.5 sq. mm, difavtomat per phase, grounding is required.
- Make an insert into the water pipe and install a tee tap or install a similar tap directly between the inlet and the mixer.
- Install a siphon with the ability to connect the drain hose of the washing machine, or organize a sewer pipe outlet.
As soon as you manage to prepare everything, feel free to drag the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine into place and start connecting it. When moving the washing machine, be careful, because it weighs a lot, it is better to get someone’s help.
Remove the hoses from the special fasteners and straighten them. Avoid creases and kinks. We install rubber seals on the inlet hose, and then screw the hose on one side to the body of the machine, and on the other to the tee tap.
The pressure in the water supply must be sufficient, otherwise the machine will not function.
We screw the drain hose to the siphon and secure the connection with a clamp. Check the integrity of the power cord and plug. If everything is fine, you can connect the machine to the power supply for the first time and check its operation.
Where should I put the powder?
When you turn on the washing machine, do not rush to press any buttons. First, let's get acquainted with the powder receiver device. If you load detergents correctly, the quality of your wash will increase noticeably. The powder tray consists of four compartments.
- The first compartment is necessary for pre-washing. If you do not turn on the mode that provides pre-wash, you should not pour powder into compartment No. 1.
- The second section is universal and very popular. In most cases, powder or gel is placed in it, because this is the compartment for the main wash.
- The third compartment is not intended for powder; conditioner is poured into it.
- The fourth compartment can be removed and put back.In most cases it is not required, so it is removed and put aside. As soon as you need to start the bleaching mode, put this compartment in compartment No. 1, and then pour bleach into it.
There is a regular bleach that is designed for durable fabrics and delicate ones. The scope of the latter is somewhat wider.
Starting the wash
It’s easy to start the wash, but first you need to get acquainted with the control panel of the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine. In the figure below you can see a schematic image of this panel. There are six buttons in the top row. The first button, counting from right to left, is the power button. The second button is responsible for starting or resetting the washing program. The third and subsequent buttons are responsible for various additional functions that are activated by the user as needed.
Directly below the buttons are three knobs. The instructions for the indesit WISL 85 washing machine contain a description of the purpose of these handles.
- The rightmost knob is the most important; it is responsible for selecting washing modes.
- The middle handle will help you select the desired water temperature.
- The last knob is for selecting the spin speed.
To the left of the buttons and handles there are indicators, and on the lid of the powder receptacle there are icons that tell about the washing programs available in the arsenal of the indesit WISL 85 washing machine. Now we will describe the procedure for starting our “home assistant”.
- We find the top row of buttons on the control panel and press the far right one, thereby turning on the washing machine.
- We sort the laundry and put it in the drum, not exceeding the maximum load value. It is best to load the machine halfway, no more, but no less.
- Next, we begin to turn the rightmost knob, selecting the desired washing program.
- Use the central handle to select the water temperature.
- Turn the leftmost knob to set the spin speed.
- Open the powder tray and add detergent and conditioner.
- Press the “start” button and start washing.
Then the machine will do everything itself, we just need to wait for the result, and then hang out the laundry to dry. For the first time, it is better to run the wash without laundry, so that the insides of the new machine are washed out of debris and machine oil. Then you can wash as usual, without restrictions.
Taking care of the “home helper”
The instructions for the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine contain clear recommendations regarding the care of your “home assistant”. After finishing washing, it is necessary for the machine to dry thoroughly inside. If you can remove moisture from all accessible internal surfaces by wiping them with a cloth, then the pipes, inner walls and bottom of the tank will remain wet. Accordingly, if they stay wet for too long, fungus will grow there and the machine will begin to emit an unpleasant odor.
In general, we act like this. If there is high air humidity in the room where the machine is located, then after washing it is necessary to open the hatch wide, and generally pull out the powder receptacle and put it aside. If the humidity is moderate, just open the hatch slightly. This way the machine will dry out quite effectively. Sometimes clean the debris filter from dirt and check the flow filter and the inlet valve mesh about once a year; it can also become clogged.
If your Indesit WISL 85 washing machine already emits an unpleasant odor, and traces of mold are visible inside, run a wash with a special anti-fungal cleaning composition for washing machines.
Well, we have outlined everything that we wanted to outline in the shortened instructions for the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine. As promised, we included the most basic provisions in it. If anything is unclear or the information provided seems incomplete to you, please read the original instructions below. Good luck!

During operation, the machine stops and indicators 2 and 4 (green) begin to flash, and the lock quickly flashes red.
During the spin cycle, the drum does not spin quickly and does not squeeze out completely. The timer goes off immediately and you wait a long time for the lock to open.
