Us again. Pen Azen is SM 302, launched June 2000. We had a Thomson Australe washing machine which we are replacing with a similar Candy, here in Spain. The shopkeeper is concerned that the new machine has electronic controls which he says may not work with a generator because of the uncertain voltage supply. I cannot make out if our original Thomson had electronic controls, but I have yet to hear of an Amel having the problem he fears--the Onan has a voltage regulator and all the new Amels will have washing machines with electronic controls.( He probably thinks we have a small portable genset) Has anyone come across this problem?
