14.1 Inspect the interior of the machine

Inspect the interior of the machine to ensure that no leaks are noticed.
During an actual wash cycle; disconnect the power to the machine and proceed as follows:
• Remove the top panel, the front and rear panel.
• Verify that all internal hoses do not leak.
• Check that water does not leak onto the floor.
• Inspect the belt. Adjust the tension or replace if necessary.
• If the heating time is unusually long, check the heating elements. If the water is very hard, check whether there
are lime deposits on the heating elements. Decalcify the elements if necessary. Adapt the amount of deliming
agent to the manufacturer's guidelines.
• Never switch on the heating elements when there is no water in the machine. This will cause the thermal fuse to
trigger.
• Inspect the shock absorbers and coil springs.
