Hi all
I have just taken ownership of one of the above auto washing machines but do not have any paperwork to help me operate it. Can anyone help me to identify the programes and use of the controls.

cheers

Mick.

Hi Mick, congratulations on obtaining a classic machine which was first made in 1978,
Heres the instructions you require, bear in mind if you are using it as a daily driver its an 800rpm spin, if you want to use the dryer if would benefit you to get a spin dryer to extract most of the moisture before "Electric Drying"...

Hi Mick.

Another 850XD owner! So they are still out there then and in Derby too!

Let us know how your machine goes, as I would be interested to hear your opinions.

Myself and tother half acquired one last year but, like with so many of our purchases, havent had an opportunity to try it out.
As and when you get the chance, do post some piccies and an update.

Paul

Hi Paul
Nice to know that there is another local owner.
My M/c is installed in a property that we have just bought and was I understand in regular use by the former owner who had it from new.
I will let you know how we go one once we start using it.
regards
Mick.
