The lower height is preferable. Make sure that the hose is not kinked. The machine is delivered ready-fitted with a plug and is intended for connection to an ASKO Dryer, which is equipped with a matching receptacle.

If the washer is used separately or with another dryer, it must be on a separate V single-phase circuit. If the machine is to be used in a wet area, the supply must be protected by a residual current device. Connection to a permanently wired supply point must be made only by a qualified electrician. This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.

This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

We believe ASKO washers clean better than any other washer available on the market. With proper attention to how you prepare your laundry items for washing and drying, your wardrobe and linens will look like new for years. Properly sorting your laundry is a very important factor in ensuring that your clothing and linens look new for a long time.

Another important factor is properly following the care label instructions see next page. Delicates should be washed separately. You should also consider separating fabrics that tend to shed lint e. If the care label says "Wash Separately," the fabric is likely to lose color excess dye for the first few washings.

To minimize the possibility of the color transferring to white or lighter colored items, wash new colored garments with items of similar color or separately. Bright reds and oranges on cottons are the dyes most likely to transfer colors to the wash load. Fluorescent colors should always be washed separately. To reduce wrinkling, you should determine the load size based on the type s of fabrics being washed.

The chart below gives recommended load sizes for different fabrics. These items should be washed in full loads because the tumble action of the tub along with the gentle rubbing and lifting and falling movement of the clothes gives the best cleaning result. These items need more room to move freely during washing for the most wrinkle-free results.

Therefore, fill the machine only half full for permanent press loads. These items should have only a brief spin cycle and they should be removed promptly from the washer and put directly into the dryer or hung to dry. More delicate fabrics, such as machine washable wool and silk, should only be washed in one-third size loads for the best results. ASKO washers are ideal for people allergic to detergent. Our Heavy, Normal and Light wash programs have five rinse cycles and a Super Rinse option that adds two more rinses.

This ensures that all the detergent residue is rinsed out of your laundry. As an extra precaution, you should use mild detergents and be careful not to use too much. Most clothes and other washable items have permanent care labels. Read these labels carefully! Care label instructions and warnings should be followed for the best cleaning results.

The table below defines the symbols used on fabric care labels. NOTE: Some manufacturers may use slightly different symbols. As an example, the symbols in the label illustrated below mean: wash in warm water on permanent press setting. Do no bleach. Dry on permanent press setting. Iron on low temperature setting. The detergent drawer on ASKO washers automatically dispenses the detergent and fabric softener at the appropriate times.

Simply pour the measured amounts of detergent and softener into the proper compartments as illustrated and close the drawer. NOTE: To avoid oversudsing, do not put detergent in the prewash compartment unless you are using one of the Heavy wash programs which has a prewash cycle.

The tumbling wash action, temperature control options, extended wash times and proper amount of detergent are sufficient to remove most stains. All ASKO series washers have a child-safe catch on the detergent drawer that can be engaged to prevent a child from opening the drawer and possibly coming into contact with the detergent or fabric softener. The safety catch is the red plastic piece on the back right side of the pull-out handle.

To engage the catch, open detergent drawer a little then pull the catch forward and release it. Once the catch is engaged, you must push it to the left each time you open the detergent drawer. Laundry detergents are available in low-, normaland high-sudsing formulas. Excess suds in a front-loading washer actually interfere with the cleaning because they cushion the tumbling action. Also, high-sudsing detergents are more difficult to completely rinse out.

The use of anything other than a low-sudsing detergent can cause severe oversudsing, which could cause suds to backup through the detergent compartment and run down the front of the washer onto the floor.

If oversudsing occurs, run the wash through one or more rinse programs until all items are thoroughly rinsed. Remove the laundry then run the washer through a Normal wash program to get rid of any remaining detergent. If you should try a liquid detergent, start with a very small amount, such as 1 to 2 tablespoons. Also, liquid detergent can be used for all programs without prewash, so add it into the main wash compartment. Should you prefer to use a liquid detergent, we have provided a partition piece with the detergent drawer specifically for use with liquid detergents.

Insert the partition in the slot at the back of the main wash compartment before you pour in the liquid detergent. NOTE: The partition piece is packaged on the bottom of the detergent drawer. This is because of their low water consumption and the fact that all the wash water is repeatedly circulated through the laundry, ensuring that all the detergent is fully utilized. We recommend that you use powder detergents made specifically for frontloading washers.

These are sometimes called HE High-Efficiency detergents. Listed below are some low-sudsing powder detergents that have been successfully tested in ASKO washers:. The amount of detergent needed varies among the different brands, but for most detergents, you need only one or two tablespoons. Using too much detergent can result in detergent residue being left in your clothes, which can cause them to appear gray or dingy.

You should start with a small amount of detergent and increase it only if the cleaning results are unsatisfactory. Additionally, you should never put detergent in the prewash compartment unless you are using a wash program that has a prewash cycle. This could cause excess foaming, which could damage the machine. Resetting an Asko washing machine is easy. The washer will drain water so that the door opens. Now, close the door again and the washing machine will start in the same place it left off in the cycle.

Running a diagnostic cycle is one of the first things you should do if your Asko washing machine is acting oddly. For instance, P1 is the inlet valve 1 which is the prewash compartment while P2 is the inlet valve 2, relating to the main wash compartment. The list goes on to test inlet valve 4, the door pull, and the heater relay. Draining an Asko washing machine is similar to other types of machines. You arm yourself with a bucket and maybe some pliers. Turn off the power and water to the machine.

Now, look in the back and find the drain hose. Detach it from the drain and lower it into the bucket. Always keep the hose lower than the water level so gravity works in your favor.

Asko washing machines are some of the more expensive washers on the market and are considered some of the best out there as well. Even though they are smart units, you can still do some of the basic diagnostic and repairs on your washer yourself rather than call a service technician.
