MACHINE WILL NOT TAKE IN WATER AFTER STAR-
TING
- Check that the water tap is open.
Proceed as follows:
1. Open the water tap.
2. If the program started more than five minu-
tes ago, restart the program with the
but-
ton.
- Check that the strainer in the machine’s water
inlet is not clogged.
Proceed as follows:
1. Close the water tap.
2. Unscrew the hose to the machine’s water
inlet.
3. Clean the strainer in the machine’s inlet val-
ve.
4. Screw the hose back in place.
5. Open the water tap.
6. If the program started more than five minu-
tes ago, restart the program with the
but-
ton.
If this does not help, call the service depart-
ment.
MACHINE WILL NOT SPIN
- Check for any unbalance in the load.
The machine has an integral unbalance sensor,
which causes the speed to be reduced or spin-
ning to be bypassed if high unbalance is present
in the load. The machine performs all the rinse
sequences, however.
Proceed as follows:
1. Open the door and redistribute the load.
2. Run the Spin program at a suitable speed.
WATER REMAINS IN THE MACHINE AT THE END
OF THE PROGRAM
- Is the
button (No spin/No Drain) pressed
in?
The machine has completed the program wit-
hout spinning and does not pump out the water
at the end of the program.
Switch off
and run either of the Drain or
Spin programs at a suitable speed to remove the
water.
- Is the power supply switched off?
If so, the machine will have stopped in the pro-
gram. Check the fuses in the house. The pro-
gram will continue when the power supply re-
turns.
- Check the drain hose and the drain pump
Proceed as follows:
1. If necessary, straighten out any folds in the
drain hose.
2. Has any object become trapped in the outlet
from the drain hose? Clean the hose.
3. Is the drain pump blocked by a foreign body?
Clean the pump; see Chapter 10, Care and cle-
aning.
4. Run either of the Drain or Spin programs at
a suitable speed to remove the water.
PROGRAMS TAKE TOO LONG
If a normal program takes over three hours, for
example, the heating has probably failed to func-
tion. Start a new program. If the fault is repea-
ted frequently, call the service department.
