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.
If , despite all checks, the
washing machine 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 washing machine.
Is there space between the
machine and adjacent
units?
If it is not a built-in
model, the washing machine
will oscillate a bit during the
spin cycle. A few cm of space
should therefore be left
around it.
The washing machine
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.
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 washing machine’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 washing machine
been levelled correctly?
The
levelling of the appliance
should be checked
periodically. Adjust the feet
and check them with a level.
The washing machine
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 “Anti-crease"
function -where provided -
enabled?
This function
requires manual selection for
draining.
Is the drain pump clogged?
To check it, turn off the water
supply, unplug the washing
machine and follow the
instructions on page 25, or
call for technical assistance.
