The programme time indicated on the remaining
time display (if fitted) “jumps” up or down
suddenly by several minutes, or the programme
time shown initially is lengthened/shortened by a
period of time:
This is a normal capacity of the washing machine to
adapt to factors that the wash programme time can
have an effect on, e.g.:
• excessive foaming
• load unbalance through individual, heavy items of
laundry
• long heating time from correspondingly cold water
supply
Because of influences like these, the time remaining in
the programme run is recalculated, and updated if
necessary. In addition, during the filling phase, the
washing machine determines the load and if necessary
adjusts the initial programme time displayed accordingly.
Failure indication table
Failure indication table for appliances with LCD
a. Failure in the water supply
The appliance has no or insufficient water supply.
For models with a failure display, the “Water Tap
Closed” display lights up and the spin speed indication
LED flashes. If a digital display is fitted, “H” and “F” are
also displayed alternately.
In this case, for washing machines with LCD this notice
appears:
For models with no failure display, the washing machine
stops in the appropriate programme step.
Switch the appliance off and pull out the mains plug.
Check whether:
• the water tap is fully turned on, and the water supply
pressure is sufficient
• The water inlet hose is kinked
• The mesh filters in the water connection are blocked
(see “Care And Maintenance/Mesh filters in the
water connection”)
• the water supply hose is frozen up
• the washing machine has a safety hose and the safety
valve is open (red indicator in the safety valve
inspection window); in this case replace it with a new
safety hose
Reconnect the appliance to the electrical socket.
For models with a failure display, reselect the desired
programme and start it.
For models without a failure display continue the
programme by pressing the “On/Off” button again.
If the failure occurs again, please contact After Sales
Service (see “After-Sales Service”).
