Rapid Reading Of Alarm Codes; Cancelling The Last Alarm - Electrolux EWM25 series Service Manual

5.3

Rapid reading of alarm codes

The last three alarm codes can be displayed even if the programme selector is not in the tenth position
(diagnostics) or if the appliance is in normal operating mode (e.g. during the execution of the washing
programme):
→ Press and hold down START/PAUSE and the nearest option button (as to enter the
DIAGNOSTICS), for at least two seconds: the LEDs initially switch off, and then display the flashing
sequence indicating the last alarm.
→ The alarm continues to be displayed for the amount of time required, and then the display returns to its
normal operation.
→ The alarm reading system is as described in paragraph 5.2.
→ While the alarms are displayed, the appliance continues to perform the cycle or, if in the programme
selection phase, maintains the previously-selected options in memory.

Cancelling the last alarm

It is good practice to cancel the last alarm:
•
after reading the alarm code, to check whether the alarm re-occurs during diagnostics.
•
after repairing the appliance, to check whether it re-occurs during testing.
