Delayed washing in the washing machine
Most modern automatic machines have a delayed start function, which is very convenient for users. For example, if you don’t want to wait 2 hours before the end of the program before going to bed and hang your laundry at night, you can put off washing in the washing machine in the evening. So, in the morning the equipment will start the cycle and will finish working when the hostess wakes up. Let's figure out how to set up this mode and which washing machine models are equipped with this option.
How to set up this mode?
To find out whether your machine is equipped with this function, carefully read the instructions for the device. If the owner's manual is missing, look at the control panel. You should look for a symbol that resembles a dial; if the icon is found, the machine can delay the start of the cycle. The delayed start function can be activated with any washing program.
To turn on the delayed wash mode on an LG automatic machine, you should:
- load things into the drum, close the hatch door tightly;
- pour washing powder into the dispenser, fill in conditioner-rinse aid;
- select the desired washing mode and, if necessary, adjust its parameters - spin speed, water heating temperature;
- find a button with a dial icon on the panel;
- Press the button several times, observing what information is displayed on the display.
So, in the process of pressing, the time for which the start of the machine is delayed is set. If you stop at 5:00, then the washing machine will start working after 5 hours. On some washing machine models, time is interpreted differently. For example, if you set the same 5:00, you should expect that after 5 hours the cycle will be completed.
And finally, all you have to do is press the “Start” button. The machine will count down the specified hours and after the required time will begin washing.
The delayed start function will be indispensable for users who are accustomed to spending their time as rationally as possible.
The option will also help save the family budget. If your apartment has a day-night counter, it is very convenient to set the start of washing for the morning hours. The amount in receipts for paying for electricity will be significantly less.
