Our washing machine recently is having an issue. Whenever we try to use the washing machine, an error will show up at the control panel. The error code is DC3.
@irmeyhamidi called the service centre and the helpdesk personnel informed her that the error code DC3 is due to a faulty sensor. An onsite personnel will come to our house to inspect the washing machine, and determine which part is actually faulty.
Since there is a full basket of unwashed clothes piling up, we go to the self-service laundry that is nearby our house.
When we reached at the self-service laundry, there were no one there. That is a good sign because I do not have to wait to use the washing and dryer machine.
I change my banknote into the token changer machine, and change USD3 worth of token to be used for washing and drying. After that, I put the unwashed clothes into the washing machine, and put in the token into the token slot. Lastly, I press the start button to start the washing process.
While looking at the laundry, I notice an interesting sticker at the front of the washing machine window. On the sticker, it is stated no carpets, NO ANIMALS, no pillows, and no shoes.
Carpets, pillows and shoes is something that customers sometime do wash at the self-service laundry. The NO ANIMALS parts may sounded funny and should be a common sense.
Sadly, there was a case back in year 2020, where a man put three cats inside the washing machine at a self-service laundry. The headline at the time was
"A Man Was Caught Putting Three Cats In A Washing Machine At A Laundrette In Kepong!" https://en.syok.my/news/a-man-was-caught-putting-three-cats-in-a-washing-m
At the entrance, there is another sign that tell customers, this self-service laundry provide free Dynamo liquid detergent and Downy fabric softener. What funny for me is, the wording is mixed between Malaysian and English word.
I list down the original mixed wording and translated wording below:
Dynamo
| Original | Translated |
|---|---|
| Soft dengan pakaian | Soft to clothes |
| Putih jadi lebih bright | White become brighter |
| Color jadi shiny | Color become shiny |
Downy
| Original | Translated |
|---|---|
| Fresh sentiasa | Always fresh |
| Senang iron | Easier to iron |
Since there are another 30 minutes before our laundry washing is finished, we head to the Mamak restaurant for dinner. By the time we finished our dinner, the laundry washing has complete. I load the laundry into the dryer, and we waited for another 20 minutes before we head home.
