Switching on and washing in the DEXP washing machine

Each SMA model has its own characteristics. However, a person who has previously dealt with machines of another brand can easily turn on the DEXP washing machine. A beginner only needs to carefully study the instructions for the equipment and understand the principle of operation of the machine.

We'll tell you how the machine turns on and the desired mode starts. What household chemicals are best to use for SMA? Let's figure out what washing programs DEXP machines have.

Trying to wash for the first time

First, the new washing machine needs to be connected to the water supply and sewerage system, leveled, and the shipping bolts removed from the tank. Next, the test cycle starts, without any laundry in the drum. A dry wash is necessary to check the operation of the machine, make sure that all elements are in working order and wash the internal parts from dirt and technical oils.

We will not dwell on the process of installing the SMA, but will tell you how to activate washing with laundry in the drum. Newbies are often confused by the numerous inscriptions and buttons on the DEXP dashboard. Before the first start, read the instructions for the equipment - it will help you understand the functions and capabilities of the washing machine.

The control panel of each washing machine is individual, so it is better to understand in advance what the symbols on the “dashboard” mean and what the corresponding buttons are responsible for.

Let's look at the process of starting the DEXP washing machine step by step:

• turn on the machine;
• open the shut-off valve at the inlet to the SMA;
• Place a load of laundry into the drum (check the pockets of each item before loading);
• close the drum door;
• add detergents to the dispenser: washing powder or gel, conditioner;
• use the programmer to select the appropriate washing mode (you need to focus on the type of items loaded into the drum), for example, “Cotton” or “Synthetics”;
• use the “Start/Pause” button to start the cycle.

As you can see, starting a wash on a DEXP machine is very simple. The duration of the cycle will depend on the selected program. When you hear a sound signal notifying you that the SMA has finished operating, do not rush to open the door. The hatch will unlock only after a couple of minutes.

Programs recorded in the intelligence memory can be further customized. For example, adjust the water heating temperature and spin speed, add additional steps: soaking or rinsing. Over time, an understanding comes of which mode is best to run in a particular situation in order to get the maximum result.

About laundry detergent

In order for clothes to be washed, detergent must be added to the machine. You can use powder, gel, capsules or laundry wipes. The method of use is indicated on the packaging - if the granules are poured into a dispenser, then the tablets are placed directly in the drum, under the laundry.

Depending on the intensity of contamination and the completeness of loading the machine, the amount of detergent added is determined. It is important not to make a mistake with the dosage. If you pour powder, too much foam will form, and this is harmful to the SMA. If you don't get enough sleep, your clothes may not wash.

The DEXP automatic machine dispenser has three compartments - for the main wash, rinsing and soaking.

The main detergent is added to the left compartment of the dispenser. On the right is the pre-wash composition (if necessary). Conditioner and rinse aid is poured into the central compartment.Simple instructions apply to all DEXP models.

Set of programs and functions

The software “stuffing” of DEXP washing machines may differ slightly depending on the model. However, standard modes are available on all machines of this brand. A description of the algorithms is available in the instructions for the SMA - so be sure to read the user manual.

Why is it so important to choose the right program? Firstly, this will prevent things from getting damaged. Secondly, it will help achieve maximum washing results. Let's figure out what modes are in the memory of DEXP machines.

• Cotton. Standard algorithm designed for washing cotton and linen clothes. The temperature can be adjusted from 20°C to 95°C.
• Cotton Eco. The only difference from the previous program is that washing occurs with maximum savings of water and kilowatts.
• Silk/Delicate wash. Gentle algorithm for cleaning “fastidious” fabrics. This mode is recommended for caring for blouses, satin shirts, dresses, and other items made from thin materials.
• Blanket. This program can be used to wash bulky, heavy items with filling. Various bedding, down jackets, etc.
• Sportswear. A special mode for washing items made of supplex, nylon and other synthetic fabrics used in sewing uniforms. Also in this program it is allowed to “twist” sneakers, sneakers, and shoes.
• Dark fabrics. Separate mode for washing black, brown, gray, blue cotton or synthetic items.
• Kids' things. Among the features of this program: steam treatment of laundry to combat allergens and bacteria, additional rinsing to completely remove powder from clothes. Water temperature 40, 60 or 95 degrees.
• Synthetics. Mode for removing stains from synthetic and mixed fabrics.Heating temperature from 20°C to 60°C.
• Hypoallergenic. Algorithm for washing things for people with allergies. An additional rinse is activated, which allows you to completely rinse the detergent from the fabric fibers. The clothes are also steam treated.
• Wool. Another delicate program. The algorithm is designed specifically for washing woolen clothes. Since such products are subject to shrinkage, spinning is performed at minimum speed.
• Express 15. Mode for lightly soiled items. The clothes “spin” in the drum for 15 minutes.
• Mixed fabrics. A universal program that can be used for washing both natural and synthetic items.
• Cleaning the drum. The algorithm starts without laundry, but with detergent. During the cycle, all dirt and bacterial residues are washed out of the washing machine.

If necessary, the user can adjust the settings of the selected program. For example, reduce the spin speed or disable this function altogether. You can change the water heating temperature (within acceptable limits).
