Troubleshooting
Problem
Cause and Measures
Rinse/Spin
Water is not
supplied to the
drum during the
rinse process
-Before rinsing, the appliance spins to drain out any
remaining water. Then it fills up with fresh water.
Rinsing begins
before the spin
process finishes
-If the appliance detects an unbalanced load, it
automatically starts rinsing to correct the imbalance .
-If excess foam remains after washing, the water is
drained out and refilled to wash the foam away. This is
the foam detection function .
During the spin
process, the drum
stops and rotates
several times
-This is normal . When the appliance detects an
unbalanced load, it automatically tries to correct it .
-The laundry may be too light .
¦
Try adding one or two bath towels .
Foam or water
remains on the
door or door seal
-Some foam or water may remain depending on the
state of the laundry or the amount of detergent used .
Wipe foam or water away before taking out the laundry .
Laundry clings to
the drum
-If the “Eco” or “Speed” function is used when there is a
lot of laundry, the laundry may cling to the drum .
Time
The displayed
remaining time
changes
-The display is only a guide and is corrected continually .
-The remaining time may increase if the rinse or spin
settings are changed or if the appliance detects an
unbalanced load and makes an adjustment accordingly .
-Remaining time may be longer or shorter while
operating with the “AutoCare” programme .
Detergent and foam
There is not
enough/too much
foam
-The amount of foam varies depending on the
temperature, level and softness of the water .
The following can result in less foam
-Powdered detergent may have been put directly into
the drum .
¦
It should be put into the detergent drawer . (P . 12)
-Too little detergent may have been used .
-The laundry may be heavily soiled .
-The load may be large .
The following can result in more foam
-Too much detergent may have been used .
