Solution
• Make sure plug fits tightly in wall outlet.
• Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse. Do not
increase fuse capacity. If problem is a circuit
overload, have it corrected by a qualified
electrician.
• Turn on water supply tap.
• Close the door and press the Start/Pause
button. After pressing the Start/Pause
button, it may take a few moments before
the washing machine begins to spin. The
door must be locked before spin can be
achieved. Add 1 or 2 similar items to help
balance the load. Rearrange load to allow
proper spinning.
• Once washing machine has started, the
door cannot be opened for safety reasons.
Check if the 'Door Lock' icon is illuminated.
You can safely open the door after the 'Door
Lock' icon turns off.
• The washing time may vary by the
amount of laundry, water pressure, water
temperature and other usage conditions.
If an imbalance is detected or if the suds
removing programme is on, the wash time
will increase.
• Follow softener guidelines to ensure
appropriate amount is used. Do not exceed
the maximum fill line.
• Close the dispenser lid slowly. Do not open
the lid during the wash cycle.
• Do not overload. Check that the washing
machine is draining properly to extract
adequate water from the load. Clothes load
is too small to tumble properly. Add a few
towels.
