About installation location and connection

If you previously had an automatic washing machine and instead purchased a new Indesit WISL 102, then there will be no problems with the installation location or with the connection. But if you purchased an automatic washing machine for the first time, you should equip a place for it in accordance with the following requirements.

The installation location of the washing machine must be free from interior items and there must be a convenient approach to it.
There should be nothing in front of the washing machine hatch.
Within 1-1.5 meters from the machine body there should be connection points to all necessary communications.

The place where the washing machine is connected must be equipped with: a moisture-resistant electrical outlet, a tee tap embedded in the water pipe, a siphon with an outlet for the drain hose.

The floor under the machine body must be level and strong; there should not be rugs, rugs, carpeting, etc. laid on it.
The gap between the machine and surrounding objects must be at least 1 cm. Between its back wall and objects - 10 cm.

Let's start connecting our new machine. For the Indesit WISL 102 washing machine, the manufacturer's instructions describe this process in some detail, so we will limit ourselves to only the general procedure. And if you also want to learn the nuances of such a connection, read the article Installing and connecting a washing machine with your own hands.

First, remove the shipping bolts, plug the holes for them, and then drag the washer to a previously prepared place. We align the body, disconnect the inlet hose from the mountings, insert the O-rings and screw one end of this hose to the water inlet of the machine, and the other to the tee tap. Make sure the connections are tight enough.

Next, connect the free end of the drain hose to the siphon outlet. The drain hose must not be pressed together; it must be bent so that sewer odors do not penetrate into the washing machine and a “siphon effect” does not occur. Connecting to the mains is simpler, just insert the power cord into the socket and you can do a test run.

Dispenser device

The powder tray of the Indesit WISL 102 washing machine has a rectangular shape, a convenient protrusion that you can grab to remove it and push it back. There are 4 compartments, 3 of which are stationary and one mobile, removable. What is the purpose of these compartments (numbered from left to right)?

The first compartment is needed for soaking. The instructions for the indesit WISL 102 washing machine call it a pre-wash compartment. In principle, this is the same thing, only our version is clearer.
The second compartment is used for the main wash. Everything is simple here, I wanted to wash it as usual, poured the powder into the second compartment and wash it for your health.
The third compartment is needed to pour air conditioner into it. The conditioner will make things soft and pleasant to the touch, and they will also emit a wonderful aroma.
The fourth compartment is not permanently in the dispenser. It is installed, if necessary, directly in compartment number one. This compartment is needed in order to activate the whitening mode.

For the WISL 102 machine, the instructions for use indicate that compartment No. 4 should not be left inside the dispenser during washing, unless you are going to turn on the “bleaching” mode. In other cases, it will interfere.

How to start a wash

For the WISL 102 machine, the operating instructions describe how to launch the “home assistant” as follows.
First we turn on the machine. If all the indicators light up for a couple of seconds and then go out, and the power light blinks, then everything is in order, the machine is ready for use. Article on the topic: How to choose a 40-inch LED TV

Next, load the laundry. By the way, the first time you need to wash it without laundry, so that the insides of the machine are washed from the factory dirt, and then everything is as usual. Using the mode selector, we determine the washing program we like. Turn the “Temperature” knob to set the desired water temperature. Open the dispenser and add powder, and if necessary, also add conditioner. Next, “key to start” in the sense, press the Start button, and, as they say, you can wait until the machine does the rest for you.

Washing machine care

An Indesit brand automatic washing machine is too useful a household appliance to just throw it to the mercy of fate. It, like any other equipment, needs to be monitored and looked after, otherwise sooner or later it will let you down.

When you finish washing, take a dry cloth and wipe all the rubber bands, the inside of the hatch door, the inside of the drum and the powder receptacle. There should be no excess moisture.
After finishing washing, do not lock the “home assistant”. For at least the first 2-3 hours, the hatch and dispenser should be open for ventilation.
When you finish washing, always turn off the water and unplug the power cord from the outlet for your own safety.
Clean the powder tray, debris filter, and fill valve flow filter at least occasionally. Read about how to clean the filter in an Indesit washing machine in the article of the same name.

Well, here we have outlined the shortest version of the instructions for the washing machine of this model. We hope that its provisions will be clear to you, and you will not make typical user errors, and accordingly, you will not have to repair the machine. Good luck!

Reviews from real users

The Italian washing machine Indesit wisl, in whatever modification it is produced, has approximately the same reviews. This is not surprising, because in many respects, the owners’ opinion about household appliances depends on the degree to which they perform all the declared functions, strength, reliability and such specific characteristics as noise and rattling.

Among the advantages of the wisl series machines, the owners emphasize their compactness, good ironing function, ease of operation, high performance characteristics - nothing breaks even after 5-6 years of constant operation.

Indesit wisl washing machine - tray

Flaws

Unfortunately, there are much more negative comments about these seemingly reliable house cleaning companions at first glance. Here are some of them:

after 1-2 years of use it may begin to receive an electric shock;
bearings wear out quickly;
water remains in the rubber cuff after washing;
noisy like a helicopter;
expensive repairs due to design features - non-removable parts;
strong vibration and, as a consequence, opening of the hatch during washing;
inconvenient tray for powder.

The disadvantage of Indesit wisl is water in the hatch cuff.
To be fair, it must be said that there are users who are absolutely satisfied with their machines. Yes, they agree that the model is noisy and vibrates a lot, but they give quite adequate arguments that this is a budget equipment and it is strange to expect silent operation from it, like machines costing 30-40 thousand rubles. For satisfied consumers, the machine worked on average for about 6-7 years without any breakdowns. During all this time, they had no complaints about the quality of washing and the operation of certain programs.

It is difficult to say what is the reason for this discrepancy in opinions. Most likely, the place of assembly and the year of manufacture of a particular model played a role. It is quite possible that these two factors directly affect the internal configuration of the machines. Somewhere they added something, replaced a part with another, removed it, changed the location of internal elements, etc. Therefore, whether or not to purchase Indesit wisl equipment is up to you to decide.

Additional functions

The Indesit wisl 102 washing machine is equipped with additional and very convenient options that make it easier to care for things:

Whitening – this function is available both for independent use and as part of some programs. Suitable for whitening strong and stubborn stains. To use it, additional use of a bleaching agent is necessary.
Light ironing is useful for reducing wrinkles in fabrics, making it easier to iron items by hand later. When this option is selected, rinsing is interrupted without draining the water and the “rinse” indicator light comes on. Next, you must manually confirm the selection of the function by pressing the “start/reset” button.
Additional rinsing significantly improves the quality of washing clothes with particularly heavy soiling. It is recommended to use this mode only when the drum is fully loaded, or when using a large amount of powder.
Elimination of spin - this function is necessary to reduce the creasing of things, as well as for washing delicate fabrics. The machine does not spin, but immediately drains the water after the wash is completed. Eliminating the spin cycle is especially useful if further ironing of things is difficult for some reason.
