Problem solving guide

General problems with the washer-dryer

Problem

Possible cause and remedy

Fabric softener is not
completely dispensed
or too much water
remains in the



compartment.

The siphon tube is not correctly positioned or
clogged.



Clean the siphon (see “Cleaning and care -
Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer”).

At the end of the
programme there is still
liquid in the capsule.

The small pipe in the detergent dispenser drawer
onto which the capsule is placed is blocked.



Clean the small pipe.

This is not a fault. For technical reasons a small
amount of water will remain in the capsule.

The display is in a
different language.

A different language has been selected in “Settings -
Language



”.



Set the language you want.

The flag symbol serves as a guide.

The display is dark.

The display has switched off automatically to save
energy (Standby mode).



Touch the

Start/Stop

sensor. This switches

Standby off.

The programme
duration remaining that
is shown in the display
fluctuates.

The countdown time adapts constantly to the
current washing and drying situation.
