Possible cause/Solution
The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the
laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redis-
tributed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several
times before the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can
resume. If, after 10 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distrib-
uted in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case,redistrib-
ute the load manually and select the spin programme.
• Redistribute the laundry.
The load is too small.
• Add more items, redistribute the load manually and then select
the spinning programme.
The drying time has not been selected.
• Select the drying time.
The water tap is not turned on. (E10)
• Open the water tap.
The drain filter is clogged. (E20)
• Clean the drain filter.
The machine is overloaded.
• Reduce the laundry load.
The selected drying time was not suitable for the laundry.
• Select the suitable drying time for the laundry.
The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an un-
usual noise compared with other traditional motors. This new mo-
tor ensures a softer start and more even distribution of the laun-
dry in the drum when spinning, as well as increased stability of
the machine.
Machines based on modern technology operate very economically
using very little water without affecting performance.
