Possible solution

The appliance fills
with water and
drain immediately.

The end of the drain
hose is too low.

Make sure that the drain hose is
in the correct position.

sults are not satis-
factory.

The detergent you used
was not sufficient or cor-
rect.

Increase the detergent quantity
or use a different one.

Use special products to remove
the stubborn stains.

 

Incorrect temperature
was set.

Make sure that you set the cor-
rect temperature.

 

Too much laundry load.

Decrease the laundry load.

After the check, activate the appliance.

point of interruption.
If the problem occurs again, contact the
