Such substances may be
deposited upon the laundry.

Some detergents may stick to the
dispenser rather hard if it is wet.
Sucking cover is not correctly
positioned or is clogged.
Remains of fabrics, washing
agent and softener in the fi lter.
• Low temperature of inlet water.
• Due to unevenly distributed
load, the machine has activated
the UKS*.
• Low mains voltage.
• There has been a failure in the
power supply.

spite of the above suggestion chart, call the nearest authorized
service shop.
Repairing the failure arising from inappropriate connections or
use of the appliance is not covered by the guarantee, and the

Remedy
