Instructions for the Indesit WIUN 82 washing machine
The Indesit WIUN 82 washing machine manual is quite lengthy, so it's no wonder most people either don't read it at all or only read it selectively. However, this document contains a significant amount of valuable information that users should understand before using the washing machine. That's why we've decided to present an abridged version of the manual, which contains only the most essential information.
Where to put it, how to connect it?
After carefully unpacking your brand new Indesit WIUN 82 and setting the box aside, inspect the unit. Be meticulous, inspect every inch of the front panel, lid, and side panels for damage, and if you find any, contact the seller. If everything is in order, you can move the machine to its installation location. The location where the WIUN 82 washing machine will be installed must meet the following requirements.
No carpeting directly under the machine body. Firstly, this will hinder heat exchange, and secondly, it is impractical, because liquid may leak onto the carpet or rug, which will ruin it.
In the immediate vicinity of the installation site of the machine (within 1-1.5 meters), there must be all the necessary communications for its connection: a socket, a water pipe outlet, a sewer pipe outlet or a siphon.
You can do without a siphon and sewer pipe, but then the drain will have to be organized directly into the bathtub, sink or toilet.
The Indesit washing machine body must fit into the intended installation location. There must be at least 1 cm of clearance between the side walls and any surrounding objects, as well as the lid and any surrounding objects. There must be a 10 cm gap between the rear wall and any object, and there must be no obstructions in front of the front panel, as this will interfere with the door opening.
The floor beneath the machine must be very strong and ideally perfectly level. In any case, the machine will need to be leveled using a spirit level. A level concrete base is ideal, but even a wooden floor will do. Speaking of which,installing a washing machine We already wrote about wooden floors in one of our earlier publications.
If the installation location is ideal for your Indesit washing machine, you can move it there using With someone's help, then, after removing the shipping bolts and plugging the holes, level the body and begin connecting. Let's start with the simple: screw the drain hose to the trap or insert its end into the sewer pipe. Next, screw the inlet hose to the water pipe outlet through the tee, remembering to insert the sealing rings.
Lastly, connect the power cord to a moisture-resistant outlet. Pay special attention to the outlet, as the washing machine is a major consumer, placing a significant strain on the electrical network. Therefore, the electrical network must be reliably protected and capable of withstanding the load. If voltage fluctuations are frequent, connect the washing machine through a special stabilizer.
Powder tray device
Don't start washing without understanding how the detergent drawer works. The dispenser, detergent drawer, and powder compartment are all names for the same part of an Indesit washing machine. The dispenser has four compartments:
No. 1 – for pre-wash;
No. 2 – for main wash;
No. 3 – for air conditioning;
No. 4 - inserted into No. 1, for bleach.
By the way! Count the compartments from left to right as you stand facing the front of the washing machine.
The prewash compartment should be used only in the rare cases where you're running a program that requires a prewash. Otherwise, don't add detergent to this compartment. The main wash compartment, on the other hand, should always be used, as should the fabric softener compartment. The fourth compartment should only be used when running the bleach cycle (also in rare cases).
Let's start washing
Now that we understand the design of the detergent drawer, let's explore the control panel. The Indesit washing machine's control panel has only a few buttons and dials that you'll use regularly, so it's worth listing them.
Various indicators and function selection buttons. They are labeled on the panel, so you can always see what's selected.
The button that turns on the washing machine.
Button to start or reset the program.
Washing mode selector.
Water temperature selector.
So, in order to start the very first wash, we need to use these elements of the control panel. By the way, the first wash is carried out “empty”, that is, without laundry, in order to flush the system. Then you can wash as usual.
Turn on the washing machine. Open the detergent drawer and add some detergent. Select a long wash cycle, then set the temperature to 90 degrees Celsius. Close the drawer and press the "Start" button to begin the program. Once the program is finished, the machine is ready.
Under normal conditions, preparation for washing is carried out in a similar manner. Before loading the laundry into the drum, the fabric type is sorted and the program is selected taking into account.
Necessary care
If your Indesit WIUN 82 washing machine breaks down, the manual will help prevent this from happening, as it contains information on how to properly operate your "home helper." About a third of breakdowns occur because washing machine owners neglect simple maintenance rules. What are we talking about?
If you are not using the washing machine, it is better to unplug the power cord from the socket and turn off the water.
After each wash, use a dry cloth to wipe the door seal, the inside of the drum, and the detergent drawer. This will prevent mold from forming.
After each wash, leave the machine open; do not seal it, as this will cause a musty smell.
Do not use aggressive cleaning agents for cleaning, they may damage the rubber seals and the machine will start to leak.
After 3-4 washes, remove the powder container and rinse it under running warm water to remove any remaining powder.
Clean the debris filter every six months and check the inlet valve flow filter about once a year. It can also become clogged with debris.
Also, check the inlet hose for any damage at least once a year. A hose with microcracks, and especially with ruptures, cannot be used.
