INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION

Remove all packaging. When removing the packaging, make sure not to damage the dryer 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

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«).

If an internal tube or hose is damaged, a shut-off system is activated that cuts the water supply to the washing machine. In such case, the control glass (a) will turn red. Replace the water supply hose.

BREGULAR CONNECTION

For normal washing machine operation, the pressure in the water mains should be between 0.05 and 0.8 MPa (0.5–8 bar). Minimum dynamic water pressure can be determined by measuring the water flow.

In 30 seconds, 1.2 litres of water should flow from a fully open tap.

Tighten the water supply hose by hand, firmly enough for the hose to have a good seal (max. 2 Nm). After connecting the hose, the seal must be checked for any leaks. Do not use pliers or similar tools when connecting the hose as this could damage the nut thread.

Only use the water supply hose supplied with the appliance. Do not use any used or other hoses.

When connecting the water supply hose, make sure to connect it in a way that allows adequate and unobstructed water supply.

Connecting and securing the water discharge hose

Feed the water discharge hose into a washbasin or a bathtub, or connect it directly to a drain (minimum drain connection diameter is 4 cm). The vertical distance from the floor to the end of the discharge hose may be no more than 100 cm and no less than 60 cm. It can be attached in three ways (A, B, C).

Recommendation

znak_ni_možnosti

No recommendation

In terms of energy and water consumption, programmes that operate at lower temperatures and last longer are generally the most efficient.

Noise and residual moisture content are affected by the spinning rate: the higher the spinning rate in the spin cycle, the higher the noise and the lower the residual moisture content.

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.

Step 4: Selecting extra functions

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

Adjust the settings by pressing the relevant function button (just before pressing the (3) START/PAUSE button).

Functions that cannot be changed with the selected washing programme are partly lit (dimmed).

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

Description of function indicators for selected washing programme:

  • lit (Basic/preset setting);

  • dimmed (Functions that can be adjusted) and

  • unlit (Functions that cannot be selected).

Choose the volume level by rotating the programme selector knob (2) to the left or to the right. The lowest setting means that the acoustic signal is switched off.

Pause button

The washing programme can always be paused using the (3) START/PAUSE button. The washing programme is temporarily paused when the time remaining until programme completion is flashing on the display unit. If there is no water in the drum and water temperature is not too high, the door will unlock after a certain period of time, and they can be opened. You can continue the washing programme by pressing the (3) START/PAUSE button; but you first have to close the door.

Adding/removing laundry during washing machine operation

After a certain period of time, the washing machine door can be opened if the water level and temperature are below a predefined threshold.

If the conditions below are met, then the electronic door lock is released and the washing machine door can be opened; E_Add will appear on the display unit:

  • water temperature in the drum has to be suitable,

  • water level in the drum has to be below a certain value.

In order to add or remove laundry from the washing machine during programme operation, proceed as follows:

  1. Press the (3) START/PAUSE button.

  2. If all conditions for release of electronic door lock are met, then you can open the washing machine door and add or remove laundry from the drum.

  3. Close the washing machine door!

  4. Press the button (3) START/PAUSE.

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.

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

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.

Contact details of your authorised service centre are available in the warranty statement supplied with the appliance and on the website by scanning the QR code on the rating plate (see chapter »WASHING MACHINE DESCRIPTION/Technical data«).

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.

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.

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

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

If you wash at low temperatures and/or with liquid detergents, there is a risk of developing microorganisms and an unpleasant odour in the washing machine. Leave the washing machine door open after each wash to allow the appliance to dry. If you detect an unpleasant odour, run the Drum clean programme.

To prevent and remove limescale deposits only use agents with added anti-corrosion protection. Observe the cleaning agent manufacturer's instructions. To remove limescale deposits, we recommend starting the DRUM CLEAN programme. Add spirit vinegar (2 dl).

We recommend avoiding washing very small amounts of laundry as this will lead to excessive use of energy and poorer washing machine performance.
You can save energy and water by filling up the washing machine to the capacity specified by the manufacturer for each programme.

The following information is accessible via the QR AUID code on the rating plate (see chapter »WASHING MACHINE DESCRIPTION/Technical data«):

  • rated capacity in kg;

  • duration of the programme in hours and minutes;

  • energy consumption in kWh per cycle;

  • water consumption;

  • maximum temperature reached in the washing machine drum;

  • residual moisture content after washing cycle and spinning rate.

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.

Loosen any folded laundry before putting it into the drum.

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.

Detergent compartment

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

Detergents

Detergents carrying the environment protection label are less harmful to the environment.

Only add the detergents in compliance with the recommendations by detergent manufacturers. Recommended amount of washing detergent at certain loads and water hardness levels are specified on the detergent packaging.

To correctly dose detergents, especially liquid ones, use the accessories provided by the detergent manufacturer.

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.

Suitable detergents

Only use detergents for machine washing.

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.

See chapter »WASHING PROCESS, STEP BY STEP (1–6)/3. Step: Recommendations for detergents under Regulation (EU) No. 1015/2010«.

You can use all modern detergents intended for household washing machines. The detergent packaging contains instructions for use and dosing, which apply to the maximum amount of filling.

The detergent dosage depends on:

  • how heavily soiled the laundry is;

  • the amount of laundry and

  • water hardness.

Check the information on water hardness with your local water supply company or authority.

Dosing accessories

To correctly dose detergents, especially liquid ones, use the accessories provided by the detergent manufacturer.

Softeners

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.

Stain removal tips

Before using special-purpose stain removers, try using the natural methods that do not harm the environment on less stubborn stains.

However, prompt action is required! Soak the stain with an absorbent sponge or a paper towel; then, rinse with cold (lukewarm) water – but never with hot water!

When using bleaches or stain removal agents, there is danger of rust (corrosion) and discolouration.

To protect the environment, we advise against using powerful chemicals.

Stains

Stain removal

Mud

When the stain is dry, first scrape it off the garment before washing it in the washing machine. If the stain is stubborn, soak it with an enzyme-based stain remover before the wash. If the stain is not stubborn, wash the laundry with liquid detergent or powder detergent and water before the wash.

Antiperspirant
