What to do if...

Certain problems are due to lack of simple
maintenance or oversights, which can be
solved easily without calling out an engineer.
Before contacting your local Service Centre,
please carry out the checks listed below.
During machine operation it is possible that
the red pilot light of button 5 blinks to indi-
cate that the machine is not working.
6. clean the pump if necessary as previously
described;
7. screw the pump again and close the
door.
Frost precautions
If the machine is installed in a place where the
temperature could drop below 0°C, proceed
as follows:
1. Pull out the plug from the power socket.
2. Turn off the water tap.
3. Unscrew the inlet hose.
4. Place the end of the inlet hose in a bowl
placed on the floor, open the emergency
emptying cup of the filter and let water
drain out.
5. Refit the emergency emptying cap into
the filter and screw the water inlet hose
back.
6. When you intend to start the machine up
again, make sure that the room temper-
ature is above 0°C.
Important! Every time you drain the water
through the emergency emptying hose you
must pour 2 litres of water into the main wash
compartment of the detergent drawer and
then run the drain programme. This will
activate the ECO Valve device avoiding that
part of the detergent remains unused at next
washing.
Once the problem has been eliminated,
press the button 5 to restart the programme.
If after all checks, the problem persists, con-
tact your local Service Centre.
