• Make sure the washing machine is set on a level floor. If the
floor is not level, use the levelling feet to adjust the washing
machine.
• Make sure the washing machine is not contacting any other
object.
• Make sure the laundry load is balanced.
• Make sure the laundry is spread evenly in the washing
machine. Spread out the laundry evenly and start again.
• Make sure the space around the washing machine is free of
objects.
• Humming is produced normally during operation.
• Objects such as coins can cause noise. Remove these objects
from the washing machine after washing is complete.
Stops.
•
Plug the power cord into a live electrical outlet.
• Check the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
•
Close the door, and press or tap
Start/Pause
to start the
washing machine. For your safety, the washing machine will
not spin unless the door is closed.
• Before the washing machine starts to fill, it will make a series
of clicking noises to check the door open and does a quick
drain.
•
There may be a pause or soak period in the cycle. Wait briefly
and the washing machine may start.
•
Make sure the inlet hose screens at the taps are not clogged.
Periodically clean the screens.
•
This problem occurs temporarily due to low voltages, and will
be solved when power recovers.
The Eco Tub Clean
alarm does not turn
off.
• When the machine is diagnosed to be cleaned, the indicator
blinks for an hour. This recurs 6 consecutive times until you
run the Eco Tub Clean cycle. This is normal, and not a system
failure. To keep the tub clean, it is recommended to run the
cycle once every 1-3 months.
