Cause and remedy
The water pressure is too low.
 Clean the water inlet filter.
 Please note that the water pressure must be at
least 100 kPa (1 bar).
Powder detergent used in conjunction with water
softeners tends to become sticky.
 Clean the detergent dispenser drawer and, in the
future, add washing powder to the dispensing
drawer first, and then add the water softener.
The siphon tube is not correctly positioned or is
clogged.
 Clean the siphon, see "Cleaning and care - Clean-
ing the detergent dispenser drawer".
The small pipe in the detergent dispenser drawer onto
which the capsule is placed is blocked.
 Clean the small pipe.
This is not a fault.
For technical reasons a small amount of water will re-
main in the capsule.
The  sensor was not activated or an empty cap-
sule was not removed at the end of the last wash pro-
gramme.
 Activate the  sensor when a capsule is next
used.
 Remove and dispose of the empty capsule at the
end of each programme.
The small pipe in the detergent dispenser drawer onto
which the capsule is placed is blocked.
 Clean the small pipe.
