General tips
Maintenance
Before cleaning or carrying out any main-
tenance operation on your washing machi-
ne, always unplug it from the mains supply.
Cleaning
After each wash, leave the loading door
open for a while so that air can circulate
inside your machine.
From time to time it is a good idea to rum a
complete wash cycle, using a descaling
product. This will help prolong the life of
your machine.
Cleaning the autside of your washing
machine
Use warm soapy water or a gentle nonabra-
sive cleaning agent which is not a solvent to
clean the outside of your washing machine.
Then dry it well with a soft cloth.
Cleaning the detergent dispenser
Clean the detergent dispenser whenever
you see a build up of washing powder
deposits. To do this:
— Take the DETERGENT DISPENSER right
out, pulling outwards the handle.
— Clean the DISPENSER COMPART-
MENTS with warm water and a brush.
— Clean the SUCTION SYPHONS as well.
Once you have done this, put the dispenser
back in your washing machine.
Troubleshooting guide
If you have problem with your washing
machine, you will probably be able to solve
it by consulting the following guide.
If the guide does not offer a solution to the
problem, unplug your washing machine
and call your nearest AUTHORISED SERVI-
CE CENTRE. Your washing machine con-
tains no fuses or similar components which
you can change. NEVER tamper with your
washing machine.
Your washing machine does not start
Possible causes
— There is no electricity supply.
— Your washing machine is not plugged in.
— A mains fuse has blown.
— Your washing machine door is not pro-
perly shut.
— The STOP/START button has not been
pressed.
Your washing machine is not taking in
water
Possible causes
— The mains water supply has been cut off.
— The water inlet tap is turned off.
— The hose filter is blocked.
— The pipe is blocked or bent.
Your washing machine does not empty
or spin
Possible causes
— The water outlet pipe is blocked or
bent.
Your washing machine vibrates or
makes a lot of noise.
Possible causes
— The INTERNAL FIXING SCREWS have
not been removed. (Consult the installa-
tion manual).
— The washing machine has not been
properly levelled.
Important
Some models (high spin speeds) have a
spin safety system which stops the spin
function from working if the clothes are not
properly distributed in such a way that they
could cause excessive vibrations. If your
clothes should come out very wet, spin dry
them again ensuring that they are evenly
distributed in the drum.
