After 10-12 years of use, the brushes, pump, and drain hose begin to wear out in the machine. These parts are easy to replace and inexpensive.
The owners report that the manufacturer was a success with this model. It's quiet, comfortable, easy to drive and overall well thought out. The entire connection of the machine is neatly hidden under the canopy of the lid, nothing sticks out or protrudes anywhere, unlike machines from other manufacturers.
There are many positive reviews about the compact dimensions of the model. Some owners managed to place it even in a three-meter bathroom.
Getting ready to turn on the machine
So, if your unit is already plugged in and your laundry is ready to be loaded, don't rush into loading it. Please ensure that the following rules are followed first.
- Don't overload the drum, but don't put too few things in the machine either. There must be moderation in everything. The amount of laundry must correspond to the nominal capacity of the machine, otherwise the drum will quickly fail.
- Wash white and dark fabrics separately. This, of course, will not affect the operation of the machine, but it will very much affect the laundry.
- Don't wash silk and wool together; one will invariably be damaged (at best). You can only wash items made from the same type of fabric at the same time.

Additional features
Changing settings during the wash process
When developing the model, the manufacturer tried to make life as easy as possible for future owners. On the machine, you can change the washing cycle even after starting the mode. The user just needs to press the pause button, and he will be able to change both the washing mode and adjust this or that cycle. For example, you set a program with a spin speed of 900 rpm and suddenly remembered that among the things there are clothes that you do not want to spin. Do not rush to pull the plug from the network and put the unit on forced drainage. Press the pause button and simply change the spin to your desired value.
Opening the hatch while the machine is running
The hatch of this model can also be opened after the cycle has started. To do this, you need to pause the machine and the door will open. But there are some nuances here. Unlocking the hatch will work if:
- the water level in the drum did not rise too high;
- the unit is not in the process of heating above 55 degrees;
- The drum is not rotating at the moment.
