Instructions for washing machine Indesit WIUN 100
The operating instructions for a washing machine can contain a lot of useful information, but the user only thinks about it after the first test of the equipment. It's better to read the instructions first; if you don't have time to read the printed version, you should at least read the short version of the manual. Below is such a version for the Indesit WIUN 100 machine.
Important Installation Points
After making sure after delivery of the washing machine that it is not damaged, you can begin installing and connecting it. First, unscrew the shipping screws and store them in case of transportation. Then the machine needs to be placed closer to the installation site, which has been prepared in advance according to all standards:
- the surface is leveled if possible;
- if it is a plank floor, then it must be reinforced;
Important! The machine must not be placed on moisture-resistant materials such as laminate flooring or carpeting.
- a water supply with a tap must be connected to the installation site, or a tee tap must be installed on the sink faucet;
- The sink siphon must have an outlet for connecting waste water;
- located near the connection point socket, if possible connected to an energy source through a difavtomat, a plus will be properly organized grounding. Connecting the machine through an extension cord or together with other devices into the same outlet is prohibited.
To connect the washing machine, the kit includes a drain and inlet hose; their length does not exceed 1.5 meters, so take this into account in advance and do not strain the hoses.Docking is also not recommended; if absolutely necessary, you need to purchase a longer hose from a service center.
The inlet hose is screwed to the water pipe of the machine manually, since it has plastic washers. The drain hose is secured to the siphon branch with a clamp or secured to the edge of the bathtub with a special latch. Both methods of draining water have their place, but connecting to a siphon is safer. It is important that the drain point in the siphon is not lower than 65 cm from the floor, but does not exceed 100 cm.
Programs and features
For the Indesit WIUN 100 washing machine, the instructions contain a detailed table of descriptions of programs and functions; we will only briefly list them.
For cotton items, you can select one of the following modes:
- pre-wash for very dirty white items at 90 degrees;
- intensive wash for white items without pre-soaking at 90 degrees;
- normal washing of colored laundry at 60 degrees;
- delicate wash of moderately soiled items at 40 degrees;
- colored fabrics – a mode for refreshing things without heavy soiling at 30 degrees.
For synthetic fabrics there are four modes:
- intensive cycle – washing dirty items at 60 degrees;
- normal washing – washing items at 50 degrees;
- delicate fabrics - wash colored synthetic items at 40 degrees;
- Everyday wash – short wash of uncontaminated items for 30 minutes at 30 degrees.
For delicate items there is a “Wool” mode and a “Silk” mode. Using these modes, you can wash particularly delicate cashmere items, organza curtains, curtains, etc. All of the above modes can be set by turning the selector.
By turning the selector you can also select a separate rinse, delicate rinse, spin and delicate spin, draining the water from the machine drum.
As for additional functions, there are only two of them, they are located on separate buttons on the control panel (from left to right):
- reducing the spin speed from 1000 to 500 rpm;
- Reducing cycle times to save energy and water; wash small amounts of laundry if necessary.
Starting the wash
Commissioning of the machine after connection begins with starting a single wash. This means that you need to select a mode with water heating to 90 degrees, put the powder in the cuvette and run the program without laundry. The question arises, where to put the powder? Everything is simple - into the main compartment of the cuvette located in the center. To the left of it is a compartment for pre-cycles, and to the right is for fabric softeners.
To start washing clothes, proceed as follows:
- Plug in the machine and press the start button.
- Load laundry according to the machine's maximum load, sorting it and checking pockets.
- Turn the selector to the desired program.
- Add detergent to the cuvette.
- If necessary, press the additional function button.
- Press the program stratum button.
If you need to reset the program, hold the Pause button for 2 seconds. - When finished, wait until the hatch unlocks, remove the laundry and press the machine’s shutdown button.
Cleaning and care
Timely cleaning of the washing machine will extend the life of the equipment, and it will look better in appearance. What needs to be done to keep it in good condition?
- Regularly wipe the machine body from dust, water droplets and dirt using a damp and dry cloth. Neither solvents nor cleaning agents can be used, but a weak soap solution can be used.
- Wash the drain filter located behind the bottom plastic panel. It is enough to do this 2-3 times a year.
- Wipe the inner surface of the drum and cuffs from water after washing to prevent mold from forming.
- Keep the hatch slightly open.
- Rinse the cuvette from powder and liquid detergents, removing it completely from the machine. This can be done after 3-4 washes.
- Clean the inside of the machine by running a single wash with a special anti-scale and plaque remover.

What is the reason, tell me? I turn on the machine, the lock icon is on. The door is not sealed. Because of this, the washing machine will not start. Who knows what to do?
The door locking mechanism is loose. If the lock flashes, gently hit the door with your palm or press it. Usually after this the water collection begins immediately.
No matter how much I hit it, it didn’t work.
Should the lock icon light up when washing?
When washing, the red icon is constantly on. What does it mean?
The most important thing I didn’t find is how many kg she is?
