User warnings
Your washer is capable of diagnosing a number of its own problems. In most cases,
your washer will sound a continuous series of beeps and display a code when it has a
problem that you can correct yourself. All control panel lights will turn off and the code
will be displayed to inform you what the problem is. To stop the beeps, press any button
on the control panel. Do not try to continue washing once you stop the noise. You must
address the problem the washer is alerting you to.
Check this chart before you call for service.

WHAT TO DO
Touch and hold the 'Keylock' button for 2 seconds.
Clear the pump filter (refer to page 37).
Check the taps have been turned on.
If there is no hot water connection the machine will
heat the water itself, but there must be a cold water
connection to the cold valve.
Check the hose connections. If the cold water
supply is connected to the hot valve and there is no
connection to the cold valve the machine will not fill.
Check the inlet hose filters are not blocked, the hoses
are not kinked and are attached correctly.
Check that the drain hose is not too low or pushed
into the standpipe too far. This will cause the water to
siphon out of the machine.
Check the cold water temperature does not exceed
the 35°C temperature requirement.
Check the water flow rate. It maybe too low.
