The first launch of a newly purchased washing machine is called a test run and is carried out in order to check how the device works.

In addition, during the experimental launch, we get rid of technical contaminants in the form of grease, oil and solvent residues, as well as foreign odors.

Since a test run is practically independent of the brand of unit you use, we will share some universal recommendations for its implementation.

You can read about the small details in the instructions that come with the device.

So, the first thing you should do is connect the machine to the water supply and sewerage system, and then plug it into the network.

Then place the detergent in the specially designed tray. Please note: only half the dose recommended for normal use is needed.

Select the “Cotton” program or another one with a temperature of 90 degrees, while the number of revolutions for spinning should be minimal – 400 or 500.

Close the door and, when you hear a distinctive click, press the “Start” button.
