The washer-dryer
does not drain or spin.
Does the selected
programme incorporates
water draining? Some
programmes stop at the end of
the wash cycles and draining
will have to be selected
manually.
Is the “Easy iron" function
-where provided - enabled?
Complete the programme by
pressing the Select button.
Is the drain pump clogged?
To check it, turn off the water
supply, unplug the washer-
dryer and follow the
instructions on page 26, or call
for technical assistance.
Is the drain hose kinked?
The tract of the drain hose
must be as straight as possible.
Make sure the drain hose is not
squashed or kinked.
Is the washer-dryer’s drain
duct clogged? Is there an
extension of the drain hose? If
so, is it positioned incorrectly,
blocking the water flow?
Excessive vibration
during the spin cycle.
Have all transit screws been
removed durind instal-
lation? See the following
page on installation
procedures.
Has the washer-dryer been
levelled correctly? The
levelling of the appliance
should be checked
periodically. Adjust the feet
and check them with a level.
Is there space between the
machine and adjacent units?
If it is not a built-in model, the
washer-dryer will oscillate a bit
during the spin cycle. A few cm
of space should therefore be left
around it.
The washer-dryer
leaks.
Is the metal ring of the inlet
hose properly attached? Turn
off the water supply, unplug
the appliance and try
tightening its attachment
without forcing it.
Is the detergent dispenser
obstructed? Remove and
wash it under tap water.
Is the drain hose well
attached? Turn off the water
supply, unplug the appliance
and try tightening its
attachment.
Too much foam.
Is the detergent appropriate
for machine washing? Check
whether the definition on its
label reads “for machine wash”
or “hand and machine wash”,
or any other similar wording.
Is the correct amount being
used? An excessive amount of
detergent, besides producing
too much foam, does not
guarantee a more effective
wash, and causes scaling in the
internal parts of the appliance.
The washer-dryer
does not dry.
Check whether:
the plug has been correctly
inserted into the socket; there
is electricity in your home; the
appliance door has been shut
properly; a delayed start (if
available) has not been selected;
the drying mode has been
selected.
The washer-dryer
doesn't dry properly.
Check whether:
the end of the drain hose is
underwater; the drain pump is
obstructed; the advice given on
the maximum loads has been
taken; the water tap has been
turned on.
If, despite all checks, the washer-
dryer fails to function and the
problem persists, call your
nearest authorised Customer
Service Centre, providing the
following information:
- the nature of malfunction
- the model type no. (Mod. ....)
- the serial number (S/N ....)
This information can be found on
the data plate situated at the back
of the washer-dryer.
