Your Washer-dryer could fail to work. Before calling for Assistance (see page 27) , make sure the problem can't
easily be solved by consulting the following list.
Problem
The washer-dryer won't start.
The wash cycle won't start.
The washer-dryer fails to load
water (The wording H2O is
displayed).
The washer-dryer continuously
loads and unloads water.
The washer-dryer does not
drain or spin.
The washer-dryer vibrates too
much during the spin cycle.
The washer-dryer leaks.
In the event of an anomaly, an
error code will appear, such as:
F-01.
There is too much foam.
The washer-dryer does not dry.
Possible causes/Solution:
• The appliance is not plugged into the socket, or not enough to
make contact.
• There has been a power failure.
• The appliance door is not shut properly (the word DOOR is displayed).
• The button has not been pressed.
• The START/RESET button has not been pressed.
• The water tap is not turned on.
• A delayed start has been set (using the Delay Timer, see page 21 ).
• The water inlet hose is not connected to the tap.
• The hose is bent.
• The water tap is not turned on.
• There is a water shortage.
• The water pressure is insufficient.
• The START/RESET button has not been pressed.
• The drain hose is not fitted between 65 and 100 cm from the floor
(see page 17) .
• The free end of the hose is underwater (see page 17) .
• The wall drainage system doesn't have a breather pipe.
If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water tap,
switch the appliance off and call for Assistance. If the dwelling is on one of
the upper floors of a building, there may be drain trap problems causing the
Washer-dryer to load and unload water continuously. In order to avoid
such an inconvenience, special anti-drain trap valves are available in shops.
• The programme does not foresee the draining: some programmes
require enabling the draining manually (see page 20) .
• The Easy iron option is enabled: to complete the programme, press
the START/RESET button (see page 22) .
• The drain hose is bent (see page 17) .
• The drain duct is clogged.
• The drum was not unblocked correctly during installation (see page 16) .
• The Washer-dryer is not level (see page 16) .
• The Washer-dryer is closed in between furniture cabinets and
the wall (see page 16) .
• The water inlet hose is not screwed on correctly (see page 16) .
• The detergent dispenser is obstructed (to clean it, see page 25) .
• The drain hose is not secured properly (see page 17) .
• Switch off the machine and unplug the appliance; wait for
approximately 1 minute then switch it on again.
If the problem persists, contact Assistance.
• The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should bear the
definition "for washing machines" or "hand and machine wash", or the like).
• You used too much detergent.
• The appliance is not plugged into the socket, or not enough to make contact.
• There has been a power failure.
• The appliance door is not shut properly.
