… the washing is not spinning or is not being spun properly 

 

 appears in the digital display

 

Possible cause

Solution

• Selected programme is 

intended for a reduced 
washing load. If there are 
too many articles, heating 
and possibly also the 
rinsing will be extended.

With the next wash cycle adjust the amount 
of articles to the max. washing load (see 

P

ROGRAMME

 

OVERVIEW

).

Possible cause

Solution

• The spin speed set is too 

low.

Increase the spin speed for the next wash 
cycle.

• Too uneven a load in the 

washing drum. The wash 
items cannot be more 
evenly distributed.

Wash large and small items together to 
reduce the possibility of very unbalanced 
loads forming.

Possible cause

Solution

• Large unbalance in 

the washing drum. The 
appliance tries to improve 
the distribution of the 
washing load. 
The final spin is extended.

Wash large and small items together to 
reduce the possibility of unbalanced loads 
forming.
