This washing machine checks
the condition of the clothes at
6min left to evaluate if they are
dried or not. If the clothes are
not dried, the washing machine
will further dry for 30min. The
6min display will then continue
to count down after 30min.
The bowl will tumble for 3
seconds and then pause for 50
seconds repeatedly for part of
the wash cycle. This is normal
during the Hand Wash & Wool
cycles.
Solution
Clean and straighten the drain hose.
Clean the drain filter.
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 clothes
washer begins to spin. The door
must lock before spin can be
achieved.
Once started, the door can not be
opened for safety reasons.
Wait one or two minutes before
opening the door to give the electric
locking mechanism time to release.
Check the weight of clothes.
The weight of the clothes should be
less then 6kg.
This action allows the more delicate
clothes to soak which assists in stain
removal.
