Door Seal damaged at the bottom.

The water level is too low when

(no lights).

General.

• There will always be some motor, pump and drum noise during spin

.

• Out of Balance detected when attempting to go into a spin cycle - If this 

happens the machine will continue to try to repeat the distribution of the load 
required before the machine will go into higher spin speeds - This will increase 
the programme time accordingly. This is a safety feature to prevent damage.  
Out of Balance can be caused by washing a single heavy item (eg duvet, quilt, 
etc).  - Try the programme again using a different load

.

• The dispenser drawer is blocked with detergent and requires cleaning

.

• The water pressure is too high and requires turning down - turn down the tap 

on the water supply pipe slightly and try again

.

• The machine is tilting forwards - It must be level when in its final position

.

• The fill hose is loose, check both the cabinet and tap ends

.

• The fill hose is tight but still leaks, if so replace the rubber washers, or the fill 

hose is missing the rubber washer

.

• The drain hose is not fixed in properly

.

• Switch off the machine and unplug it, wait for approximately 1 minute and then 

switch back on again. If the problem persists contact Technical Assistance 
Centre.

• The machine requires a service wash. Run a auto clean wash cycle with 

detergent and no laundry.

• The door will not open until the door lock indicator light goes out shortly after 

the program has finished.

• If there is no power to the machine you need to perform the manual unlocking 

procedure.

• The door seal has drainage holes at the bottom - This is normal.

• The water level is correct if it can be seen at the bottom of the door.

• The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the text  

‘for washing machines’ or ‘hand and machine wash’ or the like)

.

• Too much detergent was used - less detergent is required in soft water.

• To comply with new energy saving regulations the machine is fitted with an 

automatic standby system. Press ‘ON/OFF’ button for 3 seconds to activate 
the machine, it can then either be switched off or a new programme selected.

•  Your washing machine contains sensors that monitor progress during the wash 

cycle (eg: Water Levels, Temperatures, Out of Balance loads, Wash time/progress).

   Normally, if your machine successfully completes the cycle, there is unlikely to 

be anything wrong!

Remember, you will be charged for a service call for problems caused by incorrect installation, as 
indicated on pages 2 to 4.
Not emptying contents from pockets may cause pump or drain blockages, or may damage the machine.
Do not wash items which do not have a wash label, or wash items that are not intended as machine  
washable.
