Possible cause
– The four feet are
not resting evenly

is too low.

detergent additives
tend to clump.
The siphon tube is
either incorrectly
positioned or
clogged.

Solution
– Level the machine (see
Installation Instructions).
– It is recommended that
the machine is installed
on a concrete base.
– Check and clean the
filters in the water inlet
hoses.

drawer. In the future add
the detergent first and
then the water softener
to the compartment.

drawer".
