INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION

Remove all packaging. When removing the packaging, make sure not to damage the appliance with a sharp object.

Removing the blocking rods

Before the first use of the appliance, transport rods must be removed. A blocked washing machine may be damaged when it is switched on for the first time. Warranty shall be void in cases of such damage!

Odstranitev_transportnih_varoval

1Move the hoses and undo the screws on the back of the washing machine.

Remove the two angular pieces.

2Slide the angular pieces onto the grove in the blocking rod; before doing so, rotate the right angular piece to the opposite side.

3Use the angular pieces to rotate the blocking rods by 90°and pull them out.

4Cover the two holes through which the blocking rods were inserted with plastic plugs, and redo the screws that you undid in step 1.
The plastic plugs are supplied in the bag with the washing machine instruction manual.

Moving and transport after installation

If you wish to move the washing machine after it has been installed, the angular pieces and at least one blocking rods have to be re-installed to prevent vibration damage to the washing machine during transport (see chapter »INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION/Removing the blocking rods«). If you lost the angular pieces and the blocking rods, they can be ordered from the manufacturer.

Selecting the room

Floor on which the washing machine is placed must have a concrete base. It should be clean and dry; otherwise, the washing machine may slide. Also, clean the bottom surface of adjustable feet.

The washing machine must stand level and stable on a solid base.

If the washing machine is placed on an elevated stable base, the washing machine has to be additionally secured against tipping.

Adjusting the washing machine feet

Use a water scale and spanner No. 32 (for feet) and 17 (for the nut). The spanners are not supplied.

Namestitev_vaservaga_PS22_C_in_Cplus_in_E

1Level the washing machine in longitudinal and traverse direction by rotating the adjustable feet.

2After adjusting the height of the feet, firmly tighten the jam nuts (counter nuts) using a spanner No 17, by turning them towards the bottom of the washing machine puscica_siva_gor (see figure).

Incorrect levelling of the washing machine with the adjustable legs may cause vibration, appliance sliding across the room, and loud operation. Incorrect levelling of the washing machine is not subject to warranty.

Sometimes, unusual or louder noise may appear during appliance operation; these are mostly the result of improper installation.

Positioning the washing machine

If you also have a Gorenje dryer of corresponding (same) dimensions, it can be placed on top of the Gorenje washing machine (in this case, vacuum feet must be used) or next to it (figures 1 and 3).

If your Gorenje washing machine is smaller (minimum depth 545 mm), than your Gorenje dryer, then the dryer support has to be purchased extra (figure 2). The supplied vacuum feet must be used; they are designed to prevent the dryer from slipping.

Additional equipment (dryer support (a), vacuum feet (b) and wall fixing bracket (c)) can be purchased at the service centre.

The surface on which the appliance is placed should be clean and level.

Gorenje washing machine onto which you intend to place the Gorenje dryer should hold the weight of the Gorenje dryer (see chapter »WASHING MACHINE DESCRIPTION/Technical information«).

Maximum spinning rate

Add powder or liquid detergents according to the manufacturer's instructions, considering the washing temperature, washing program, how soiled the laundry is, and water hardness.

When excessive foaming occurs in the washing machine or foam spills through the dosing container, the washed laundry must be thoroughly rinsed. Choose a washing programme with a large amount of water without using detergent.

Maximum amount of laundry in kg (for the Cotton programme) is indicated on the washing machine rating plate (see chapter »WASHING MACHINE DESCRIPTION/Technical information«).

Maximum or nominal load applies to laundry prepared pursuant to the IEC 60456 standard.

For better washing effect, we recommend loading the drum to 2/3 when using the cotton programmes.

Low water temperature, low mains voltage and different washing loads may affect the washing time; the remaining time displayed is adjusted accordingly during the washing process.

Time optimization during the programme progress

In the early stage of the washing programme, the washing machine uses advanced technology to detect the amount of laundry. After load detection, the washing machine adjusts the programme duration.

Washing programs with steam

Adding steam during the last washing step loosens the laundry, slightly disinfects it, and eliminates some allergens. After using such a program, the laundry will be soft, supple, and fresh, and it will require less ironing.
The use of steam (press the position 8) also allows omitting or reducing the amount of conditioner.
For a better steam effect on the laundry, we recommend half load.

AirDry function

(depending on the model)

AIRDRY is a function intended for drying the washing machine interior and dispenser without any laundry in the appliance. The purpose of drying is to reduce and prevent the conditions for occurrence of mould and development of microbes that cause unpleasant odours of the washed clothes.
We recommend running this function once per week. The drying procedure takes several hours but uses little electricity.
When the AIRDRY process is completed, water droplets may still be present in the appliance or parts thereof. This is completely normal. Efficiency of appliance interior drying depends on the relative humidity in the room, amount of humidity remaining from the most recent wash, amount of clothes in the most recent wash etc.
AIRDRY function can only be activated using the ConnectLife ConnectLife app on your phone. (See chapter »WASHING PROCESS, STEP BY STEP (1–7)/Step 3: Remote control of wash using the app«.)

Remote control of wash using the app

See chapter WASHING PROCESS, STEP BY STEP (1–7) and observe steps 1 and 2.

Remote control is available for the next 24 hours, even when the appliance enters standby mode. The door is locked during this time, so it cannot be opened. Remote control can be cancelled by pressing (9) START/PAUSE simbol_Start_Pause_SP22_C.

Continue operating the appliance in the ConnectLife app, where you can choose from several options (selection, launch, and monitoring and stopping of the programme, amongst other additional settings)

The washing process can be controlled/monitored from the app.

Washing machine operation can be paused or stopped by choosing STOP/ADD CLOTHES/PAUSE ...

Some options can be implemented remotely in full, and some require your physical presence, such as adding laundry during a washing cycle (ADD CLOTHES).

You can also control your appliance from your phone if you are not connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your appliance (the phone only needs an active internet connection). This means you can also control your appliance when you are away from home.

You can operate the appliance with multiple devices. You can also control and monitor the operation of the appliance with any phone connected to the appliance, regardless of which user has initiated the washing cycle. The appliance can be connected to/controlled simultaneously with several ConnectLife ConnectLife user accounts.

After you have started the appliance from your phone, a person located next to the appliance can take over and manually turn off or control the appliance; the app will notify you in such case. In such case, controlling the appliance remotely from your phone is no longer possible. If you wish to control the appliance from your phone again, all required steps must be repeated.

Step 4: Choosing the settings

Most programmes feature basic settings, but these settings can be changed.

Adjust the settings by pressing the relevant function button (before pressing the (9) START/PAUSE simbol_Start_Pause_SP22_C button). Functions that cannot be changed with the selected washing programme are partly lit.

Certain settings cannot be selected with some programmes. Such settings will not be lit, and the button will flash when pressed (see FUNCTION TABLE).

  3. Close the washing machine door!

  4. Press the (9) START/PAUSE simbol_Start_Pause_SP22_C button.

The washing program will resume.

If you add a considerable amount of laundry during the wash, the laundry could be washed less effectively, since the washing machine initially sensed a lower weight of the load of laundry and added a smaller amount of water. Insufficient amount of water relative to the amount of laundry could also cause damage to the laundry (rubbing of dry laundry), and washing time can be longer.

Washing time will resume from the point at which the washing programme was interrupted.

Errors

In case of an error or fault, the programme will be interrupted.

An acoustic signal will warn about such occurrence (see TROUBLESHOOTING AND ERROR TABLE), and the error will be indicated on the display unit (E:XX).

Power supply failure

In case of a power supply failure, the washing programme is interrupted. When power supply is restored, the washing programme is resumed from the point at which it was interrupted. Upon completion of the washing cycle, E_End/ E_PF will alternate on the display unit. This informs the user about a power supply failure and on the effect on the execution of the washing programme.

Washing time will resume from the point at which the washing programme was interrupted.

Opening the door (pause/cancel/change programme)

Washing machine door can be opened, if the water level in the machine is low enough and if the water temperature is not excessively high.

If the washing machine is not connected to the power mains or in case of a power supply failure during the programme execution, then the washing machine door cannot be opened. In such case, the washing machine has to be properly connected, or a service technician should be contacted.

Displaying the number of completed wash cycles

Preparation for unlocking the door

Signal lights will flash on the display unit.

Wait for the process to finish. If no errors are shown after the process, a new cycle can be run.

Water has to be drained. Wait for the door to unlock.

The appliance cannot be controlled remotely

Appliance remote control is not activated or enabled.

Check if the Wi-Fi symbol simbol_Connect_WiFi_P22_C on the appliance is lit, and set the program selector knob (1) to position REMOTE CONTROL (ConnectLife) simbol_RemoteControl_WiFi_P22 (Remote control) .

The appliance will not connect to the Wi-Fi network

The appliance cannot find your Wi-Fi network.

Check whether 2.4 GHz network is activated on your router and whether the Wi-Fi signal at the appliance is strong enough.

Noise and vibration – make sure the appliance is levelled using the adjustable legs and that the jam nuts are securely tightened.

Unevenly distributed laundry or lumps of laundry in the washing machine drum can cause problems such as vibration and noisy operation. The washing machine detects such problems and the UKS* (*stability control system) will be activated.
Smaller loads (e.g. one towel, one sweater, one bathrobe etc.) or clothes made of materials with special geometrical properties are virtually impossible to distribute evenly across the washing machine drum (slippers, large items etc.). This results in several attempts to redistribute the laundry, which in turn leads to longer programme duration. In extreme cases of unfavourable conditions, the programme can be completed without the spinning cycle.
The UKS* (*stability control system) allows stable operation and a longer washing machine useful life.

If the problems persist despite observing the advice above, call an authorized service technician.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR WASHING AND ECONOMIC USE YOUR WASHING MACHINE

Wash new coloured garments separately the first time.

Wash heavily soiled laundry in smaller amounts, with more powder detergent or with a pre-wash cycle.

Apply a special stain remover on stubborn stains before the wash.

With slightly soiled laundry, we recommend a programme without a pre-wash cycle, use of shorter programmes (e.g. FAST) and a lower washing temperature.

If you often wash laundry at low temperatures and with liquid detergents, bacteria may spawn which can cause odour in the washing machine. To prevent such odour, we recommend occasionally running the Drum clean (Self-cleaning programme) (see PROGRAMME TABLE).

We recommend avoiding washing very small amounts of laundry as this will lead to excessive use of energy and poorer washing machine performance.

Loosen any folded laundry before putting it into the drum.
Only use detergents for machine washing.

If water hardness exceeds 14°dH, water softener should be used. Heater damage resulting from incorrect use of water softeners shall not be covered by the warranty. Check the information on water hardness with your local water supply company or authority.

Use of chlorine-based bleaches is not recommended as they can damage the heater.

Do not add hardened lumps of powder detergent into the detergent dispenser as this may clog the piping in the washing machine.

When using thick liquid laundry care products, we recommend diluting them with water to prevent clogging the dispenser tray drain.
Liquid detergents are intended for washing programmes without a prewash cycle.

At higher spinning rates, there will be less residual moisture in the laundry. As a result, drying in a tumble dryer will be more economical and faster.

We recommend adding powder detergent immediately before the washing cycle. If you add it sooner, make sure the detergent compartment in the dispenser tray is completely dry before adding the powder detergent: otherwise, the powder detergent may cake before the start of the washing process.

Pour the conditioner into the dispenser tray, into the compartment with the symbol simbol_softening. Observe the recommendation on the conditioner packaging.

Do not fill the conditioner compartment over the max. indication (maximum indicated level). Otherwise, the conditioner will be added to the laundry too soon, leading to poorer washing effect.
