Possible cause/Solution
Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent (creates too
much foam) has been used.
• Reduce the detergent quantity or use another one.
Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet
hose fittings. It is not always easy to see this as the wa‐
ter runs down the hose; check to see if it is damp.
• Check the water inlet hose connection.
The drain or inlet hose is damaged.
• Change it with a new one.
Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been
used.
• Increase the detergent quantity or use another one.
Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing.
• Use commercial products to treat the stubborn stains.
The correct temperature was not selected.
• Check if you have selected the correct temperature.
Excessive laundry load.
• Reduce the laundry load.
The programme is still running.
• Wait the end of washing cycle.
The door lock has not been released.
• Wait until the indicator light for door locked has gone
out.
There is water in the drum.
• Select drain or spin programme to empty out the wa‐
ter.
The transit bolts and packing have not been removed.
• Check the correct installation of the appliance.
The support feet have not been adjusted
• Check the correct levelling of the appliance.
The laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.
• Redistribute the laundry.
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
• Load more laundry.
The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in be‐
cause the laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.
The laundry is redistributed by reverse rotation of the
drum. This may happen several times before the unbal‐
ance disappears and normal spinning can resume. If, af‐
ter 10 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed
in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case ,redis‐
tribute the load manually and select the spin programme.
• Redistribute the laundry.
The load is too small.
• Add more items, redistribute the load manually and
then select the spinning programme.
Machines based on modern technology operate very
economically using very little water without affecting per‐
formance.
