Problem
The door will not open:
The machine vibrates or is noisy:
Spinning starts late or the machine does not
spin:
The machine does not dry or does not dry
properly:
Possible cause/Solution
The programme is still running.
• Wait the end of washing cycle.
The door lock has not been released.
• Wait until the symbol 9.6 has gone off.
There is water in the drum.
• Select drain or spin programme to empty out
the water.
The transit bolts and packing have not been re-
moved.
• Check the correct installation of the appli-
ance.
The support feet have not been adjusted
• Check the correct levelling of the appliance.
The laundry is not evenly distributed in the
drum.
• Redistribute the laundry.
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
• Load more laundry.
The electronic unbalance detection device has
cut in because the laundry is not evenly distrib-
uted in the drum. The laundry is redistributed
by reverse rotation of the drum. This may hap-
pen several times before the unbalance disap-
pears and normal spinning can resume. If, after
some minutes, the laundry is still not evenly
distributed in the drum, the machine will not
spin.
• The laundry load is perhaps to little, add
more items, redistribute the load manually
and then select the spinning programme.
The drying time has not been selected.
• Select the drying time.
The water tap is not turned on.
• Open the water tap.
The drain filter is clogged.
• Clean the drain filter.
The machine is overloaded.
• Reduce the laundry load.
The selected drying time or dryness degree was
not suitable for the laundry.
• Select the suitable drying time or the dryness
degree for the laundry.
