Cause/Remedy
Automatic dosing: Ž i-DOS check the dosage settings and, if required,
■
reduce the basic dosage.
If required, use a different liquid detergent/fabric softener.
Manual dosing: Have you used too much detergent? Use less detergent in
■
the next wash cycle.
Immediate action: Mix one tablespoon of fabric softener with 1/2 litre of
■
water and pour it into the manual dosing compartment (not suitable for out-
door clothing, sportswear or items stuffed with down).
Automatic dosing: Ž i-DOS check the dosage settings and, if required,
■
reduce the basic dosage.
If required, use a different liquid detergent/fabric softener.
Manual dosing: Have you used too much detergent? Add less detergent in
■
the next time you run a wash cycle with the same load.
There is too much detergent/fabric softener in the dispensers. Do not fill the
dispensers above the max. mark.
Ž i-DOS check the dosage settings and, if required, increase the basic dos-
■
age.
Use a different liquid detergent.

Not a fault – when the appliance is switched on, this whirring sound occurs
briefly due to internal testing of the automatic dosing system.
Not a fault – when automatic dosing is activated, a whirring sound occurs after
water enters the drum during detergent dosing and in the last rinse cycle dur-
ing fabric softener dosing. The sound is caused by the Ž i-DOS pump unit and
is a normal operating noise.
Not a fault – the unbalanced load detection system has interrupted the
■
spin cycle because the laundry is unevenly distributed. Distribute small and
large items of laundry evenly in the drum.
Is Easy Iron additional programme setting selected (depending on the
■
model)?
Is S Silent Wash additional programme setting or Silent wash pro-
■
gramme selected (depending on the model)?
Is the selected speed too low?
■
Not a fault – the unbalanced load detection system is adjusting an imbalance.
Not a fault – the unbalanced load detection system is adjusting an imbal-
■
ance by repeatedly distributing the laundry.
Not a fault – the foam detection system is activated – a rinse cycle has
■
been switched on.
Not a fault – the programme sequence is optimised for the specific washing
