If you think your washing machine is not
working properly...
the laundry loading door will not open immediately when the
programme is interrupted?
The door will open after 1-2 minutes (safety lock).
A programme with rinser-hold has been selected.
. my washing machine is not working at all?
Your machine may not be plugged in (the power plug may not be
in the plug socket).
The programme selector switch has not been pulled out.
The loading door is not properly closed.
Have you checked the fuses?
.no water enters?
The water taps may not have been turned on.
One of the filters in the water supply hoses is blocked.
One filter is located in the end of the hose connected to the waler
tap: unscrew the infill hose(s) and clean the filler under running
water.
A second filter is located in the connection between hose and
machine. Unscrew
the infill hose(s) on the machine and clean the
filter.
. there is a delay before the spin sequence starts?
The electronic out of balance monitoring system of your machine
has responded owing to poor laundry distribution.
Your laundry is loosened and distributed by the tumbling action
of the drum and the spin sequence restarted. This may happen
several times until the imbalance
is corrected and the spin
sequence can finally start.
. my washing machine vibrates?
Very small wash loads (e.g. only one bathrobe) may cause your
machine
to vibrate. This does
not affect operation
of your
machine in any way.
The appliance feet are not properly adjusted. See Instructions for
Installation.
. the washing machine makes unusual noises?
This washing machine possesses a modern drive system, which
in comparison with earlier drives produces a different kind of
noise, rather like a whistle.
The new drive allows the washing machine to build up speed
gently when spin-drying, and to then keep to the speed-level set.
The washing machine's stability has thereby been improved and
its water-consumption lowered.
. the machine is oversudsing in the main wash?
You have added too much detergent. Dose the detergent more
accurately!
Have you used a low lather detergent?
. my washing machine is noisy?
The drain hose may be kinked, or
The drain pump is blocked. In both cases, the water has not been
pumped away efficiently or not at all.
See also "Cleaning the drain pump".
