Instructions for the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine
The Indesit WISL 85 washing machine's manual, like other machines, is quite extensive and contains a wealth of useful information for all occasions. While this is a good thing, it can also make it difficult for users to pinpoint the essentials. We decided to rewrite the manual, creating a concise and concise version that focuses on the essentials. This is what we came up with.
Installation without errors
Only a qualified technician can install the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine quickly and professionally. Ideally, a technician from an authorized service center. However, if you carefully read the instructions, you have a good chance of doing it just as well, albeit in a slightly longer time.
Incorrect installation of an Indesit washing machine can cause breakdowns that cannot be repaired without a technician.
Let's start with unpacking the washing machine, inspecting it externally, and removing the shipping bolts. We won't go into detail, especially since we've already covered that in the publication. Instructions for the Indesit WISL 82 washing machineLet's get started with installing the washing machine. Before installing the machine, it's important to thoroughly prepare the area for it.
Re-do the floor so that it becomes stronger and smoother, remove all soft coverings.
Move the surrounding interior objects apart so that the machine fits and still leaves some space.
Invite an electrician to install a new outlet for the washing machine. We use a moisture-resistant socket housing, 1.5 mm2 copper wire, a residual-current circuit breaker per phase, and grounding is required.
Make a cut into the water pipe and install a tee tap or install a similar tap directly between the supply line and the mixer.
Install a siphon with the ability to connect the drain hose of the washing machine, or arrange for a drain pipe.
Once you've got everything ready, feel free to move the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine into place and begin connecting it. Be careful when moving the washing machine, as it's quite heavy; it's best to have someone help you.
Remove the hoses from their special fasteners and straighten them. Avoid kinks and bends. Install the rubber seals on the inlet hose, then screw the hose to the machine body on one end and to the tee valve on the other.
The water pressure in the water supply must be sufficient, otherwise the machine will not function.
Attach the drain hose to the siphon and secure the connection with a clamp. Check the integrity of the power cord and plug. If everything is OK, you can connect the machine to the power outlet for the first time and test its operation.
Where to put the powder?
After turning on the washing machine, don't rush to press any buttons. First, let's get familiar with the detergent drawer. Loading detergent correctly will significantly improve the quality of your wash. The detergent drawer consists of four compartments.
The first compartment is for prewash. If you don't use a prewash cycle, don't add detergent to compartment #1.
The second section is versatile and in high demand. It's where you'll usually put your washing powder or gel, as it's the main wash compartment.
The third compartment is not intended for powder; conditioner is poured into it.
The fourth compartment can be removed and replaced. In most cases, it's not needed, so it's removed and stored away. Whenever you need to start the bleach cycle, place this compartment back into compartment #1 and then pour in the bleach.
There's a regular bleach designed for heavy-duty fabrics, and a delicate bleach. The latter has a slightly wider range of applications.
Starting the wash
Starting a wash cycle is straightforward, but first, you need to familiarize yourself with the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine's control panel. The image below shows a schematic diagram of the panel. The top row contains six buttons. The first button, counting from right to left, is the power button. The second button starts or resets the wash cycle. The third and subsequent buttons are responsible for various additional functions that the user can activate as needed.
Directly below the buttons are three knobs. The Indesit WISL 85 washing machine manual describes the purpose of these knobs.
The far right handle is the most important; it is responsible for selecting washing modes.
The middle handle will help you select the desired water temperature.
The last handle is used to select the spin speed.
To the left of the buttons and knobs are indicators, and on the powder compartment lid are icons that describe the wash programs available in the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine. Now let's describe how to start our "home assistant."
We find the top row of buttons on the control panel and press the far right one, thereby turning on the washing machine.
We sort the laundry and place it in the drum, not exceeding the maximum load. It is best to load the machine halfway, no more, but no less.
Next, we begin to turn the far right handle, selecting the desired washing program.
Use the central handle to select the water temperature.
Turn the far left handle to set the spin speed.
Open the powder tray and add detergent and conditioner.
Press the “start” button and start washing.
The machine will do the rest automatically; all we need to do is wait for the results and then hang the laundry out to dry. It's best to run the first wash without any laundry to flush out any debris and machine oil from the new machine's interior. After that, you can wash as usual, without any restrictions.
Caring for a "home helper"
The Indesit WISL 85 washing machine manual contains clear recommendations for caring for your "home helper." After washing, it's important to thoroughly dry the inside of the machine. While you can wipe off all accessible interior surfaces with a cloth, the hoses, interior walls, and the bottom of the drum will remain wet. If these remain wet for too long, mold will grow, and the machine will begin to emit an unpleasant odor.
Basically, here's how to proceed: If the room where the machine is located has high humidity, after washing, you should leave the door wide open and remove the detergent drawer and put it aside. If the humidity is moderate, simply opening the door slightly will allow the machine to dry effectively. Clean the debris filter occasionally and check the inlet valve mesh filter about once a year; it can also become clogged.
If your Indesit WISL 85 washing machine is already emitting an unpleasant odor and traces of mold are visible inside, run a wash cycle with a special anti-fungal cleaning agent for washing machines.
Well, that's all we wanted to cover in this abbreviated manual for the Indesit WISL 85 washing machine. As promised, we've included the most basic points. If anything remains unclear or the information provided seems incomplete, please read the original instructions below. Good luck!
During the spin cycle, the drum doesn't spin quickly and doesn't squeeze out all the laundry. The timer goes off immediately, and you have to wait a long time for the lock to open.
