How to turn on the Indesit washing machine
New equipment always brings not only the joy of purchasing, but also new questions about how to use this new “device”. Not everyone can immediately figure out how to turn on an Indesit washing machine. Today we will tell you in detail how to activate the machine, it is better to load laundry with powder, and we will also look at the preventive measures that need to be carried out after each wash. The first step is to prepare the washing machine for starting the working cycle.
Let's deal with the powder box first.
First of all, you need to study and prepare the powder receptacle, also known as a hopper for washing powder. The tray in Indesit household appliances is designed to be rectangular, with a comfortable protrusion for the hands, so that the drawer can be easily taken out and put back in place. The tray has four compartments, three that are stationary and cannot be pulled out, and one that is removable. The purpose of the departments is as follows:
- the first compartment, if you look at the tray from left to right, is needed for pre-washing, which is also considered soaking;
- the second compartment is designed for regular washing. This is the main compartment that is used during almost every work cycle. You just need to add washing powder and start the wash;
- the third compartment is provided for the air conditioner. If after washing you want to get soft, pleasant-to-touch clothes that smell amazing, then pour 30-45 milliliters of any fabric softener into the third section;
- Finally, the last section is installed in the dispenser only when you need to turn on the whitening mode. To do this, the fourth compartment must be placed directly in the very first compartment.
Carefully read the instructions for the Indesit washing machine, because in addition to useful tips, it also states that the fourth compartment should be kept inside the dispenser while the washing machine is operating only if you need the “bleaching” mode. In any other case, this compartment will only interfere with the normal functioning of the device.
We put the equipment to work
It seems that turning on the Indesit washing machine is simple, so there are no subtleties or peculiarities in this process. However, this is not true, because even starting a wash has its own nuances, which are described below.
- Connect the “home assistant” to the power supply.
- Click on the technology power button.
After activating the machine, all program indicators should light up for a few seconds and then go out, while the power light should blink - this will be a signal that the household appliance is working and ready to work.
- Add laundry if this is not the very first wash. If this is the first time you start the washing machine, then you should use the standard washing program without adding clothes so that the insides of the machine are washed from factory dirt and do not stain your laundry.
- Select the required program using the selector.
- We turn the handle responsible for selecting the water temperature.
- Add detergent and conditioner to the powder tray.
- And only now you can click on the “Start” button, which will start the work.
After these manipulations, all that remains is to wait for the end of the cycle, after which other procedures await you aimed at preserving the laundry and the washing machine.
What to do after washing?
It’s not enough to just start the wash, do the laundry, take out the laundry and forget about the “home assistant”.The Indesit washing machine is a very useful device in the household, which, like any other high-tech equipment, requires special careful care. We list a number of actions that should be performed after each work cycle.
- To prevent moisture from remaining inside, be sure to wipe each elastic band inside the laundry compartment, the inside of the hatch and drum, and all compartments of the powder tray with a dry cloth.
- Do not close the hatch door and the powder receptacle for several hours after the cycle is completed, because they must be ventilated and dry.
- It is advisable not only to turn off the water after washing, but also to turn off the power to household appliances for safety.
- From time to time, clean the garbage and flow filters of the machine, and also rinse the powder dispenser to remove any residual detergent.
When operating an Indesit washing machine, it is very important to listen to its operation. If you notice any extraneous noise or crackling noises during washing, this is a reason to seek help from a service center specialist. Problems with smart devices are always easier to prevent in time than to fix later.
