Instructions for washing machine Indesit WISL 103
If you need instructions for the Indesit WISL 103 washing machine very urgently, then by opening our publication, you have come to the right place. Here you will find not only the original document from the manufacturer, available for download, but also an adapted version of it, which we have retold especially for you.
Installation Tips
The operating instructions for a washing machine of this brand describe in some detail the process of installing and connecting the “home assistant”. Each stage of work is accompanied by clear schematic images, so we will not rewrite these provisions, but we will add to them a list of tips formulated by experts. These tips will be a great addition that will help you complete the installation of the machine without errors.
- Do not rush to unscrew the bolts intended for transporting the machine and remove the hoses from the mounts before you put the “home assistant” in place. This makes it easier to drag it from place to place.
- Firmly strengthen the base under the washing machine body. If you have a plank floor, then place additional joists under it where the washing machine is installed. It would be ideal to pour a concrete pedestal under the flooring and level the floor surface as much as possible.
- Remove floor coverings that are unsuitable for installing a washing machine: regular (not moisture-resistant) laminate, carpet, carpet, woven rugs, etc.
Leveling and strengthening the floor will double the service life of the washing machine. In addition, it will work much quieter, even when spinning at high speeds.
- If it was not possible to make the floor perfectly level and there are obvious differences, it doesn’t matter, you can level the body of the machine by tightening the legs. To do this, place a building level on the upper part of the machine body and begin to twist the legs alternately until the washer can be installed level.
- Install a tee tap in advance on the outlet of the cold water pipe at the installation site of the machine. This way you will create a connection point to which you only need to screw the inlet hose.
- Install a siphon with a side outlet to connect the drain hose. If there is no sink near the installation site of the machine, but there is a sewer pipe outlet, make a tie-in and install a tee. In general, about how to connect the drain hose of a washing machine to the sewer, we've already told you about it, so we won't repeat it.
- Pay special attention to the new socket for the washing machine. We have already talked about this a lot before and we will repeat it again: you cannot connect the washing machine to an outlet with other appliances, much less use an extension cord. A washing machine is a large consumer; it needs a separate, protected, moisture-resistant outlet. If you can also organize grounding, then that will be great!
- There should not be more than 1 m from the connection points of the washing machine to various communications to its body. This is especially true for sewage systems. The longer the drain hose, the sooner the pump will fail.
- Before connecting the machine to the water pipe, make sure that the water pressure in it is sufficient.If, after opening the cold water tap fully, you were unable to fill a glass of water in 6 seconds, the pressure in the water supply is insufficient to connect the Indesit WISL 103 automatic washing machine.
Buttons, knobs, indicators
On the Indesit WISL 103 control panel there are three large rotary knobs, each of which performs its own, very important function. So, let's stand facing the washing machine and pay attention to the far right handle. With its help, we can select any washing program from the list that is given in the instructions or on the cover of the powder receptacle. Each program is assigned a number. To select one program or another, simply turn the knob.
To the left of the program selection knob there is a thermostat switch. With its help, you can easily set the temperature of the water in which you will wash your clothes. The leftmost handle will serve us if we need to adjust the spin speed. You can set the “no spin” mode, you can set it to 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900 or 1000 rpm.
There are six buttons above the switches. The far right one allows you to turn the machine on and off. Second from the right is the program stop/start button. The third one from the right is an additional rinse. Fourth from the right - light ironing. Fifth from the right – whitening. And finally, the sixth one is delaying the launch.
By the way! You can delay the start of the washing program for Indesit WISL 103 by 9 hours.
There are also indicators on the control panel of this brand of machine. Some of them indicate the progress of program execution, and some indicate the activation of a particular function. In any case, you need to pay attention to them.
Approximately 1/3 of the control panel of the Indesit WISL 103 washing machine is occupied by a powder receptacle.This is a special drawer of relatively small size in which detergent should be placed before washing. It contains:
- washing powder;
- air conditioner;
- starch;
- salt;
- liquid detergent;
- bleach, etc.
The powder cuvette is divided into three parts. Let's pull it out and take a look. The middle part is reserved for the main wash, and will have to be used most often; the remaining compartments are optional. The left one is for soaking programs, and the right one can be used to add softener. Sometimes you have to turn on the “bleaching” mode and users, in this regard, ask which compartment to pour the bleach into. As you can see in the figure, the bleach requires a special compartment, which is inserted into the leftmost section of the powder receptacle.
Starting the washing process
If everything is installed and connected correctly, starting to wash using the Indesit WISL 103 washing machine is as easy as shelling pears. First, press the large button, which is located immediately above the program switch. We sort the laundry and put the first batch of it in the machine. Use the program switch to select the desired washing mode. Then, turning the remaining knobs, set the water temperature and spin speed. Open the powder receptacle tray and add to it the products that are needed to ensure high-quality washing.
Next, press the button, which is located from right to left immediately behind the on/off button. All we have to do is wait until our beloved “home assistant” does the laundry and then unlocks the hatch so we can pick up the clean laundry.
Features of care
Take proper care of your Indesit WISL 103 washing machine, especially since it does not require any special care, just minor things.We wipe with a cloth wherever we can reach, since excess moisture can cause mold and an unpleasant odor. Sometimes we clean the filters: garbage and flow.
Often you don’t need to climb into these filters, but you shouldn’t throw them away at all. It would be optimal if you clean the garbage filter after 6 months of using the “home assistant”, and the flow filter after a year.
Here are the instructions. Some may think it is too short, but in fact it has everything you need. If you need more information, download the instructions from the manufacturer. Good luck!

Thank you
Good afternoon, as I understand it, there are two types of wisl103. There are only two twists in one instruction, but I have 3 of them.
Hello, why doesn’t it automatically switch from washing to rinsing and waits for 4 hours? Is she going to do laundry for 4 hours?
I have the same bullshit. Unclear. I set it for 30 minutes. And she worked for more than 8 hours. And I had to turn it off
