Problem
Possible cause/Solution
The machine vibrates or
is noisy:
The transit bolts and packing have not been removed.
• Check the correct installation of the appliance.
The support feet have not been adjusted
• Check the correct levelling of the appliance.
The laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.
• Redistribute the laundry.
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
• Load more laundry.
Spinning starts late or
the machine does not
spin:
The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in
because the laundry is not evenly distributed in the
drum. The laundry is redistributed by reverse rotation
of the drum. This may happen several times before
the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can re-
sume. If, after some minutes, the laundry is still not
evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will not
spin.
• The laundry load is perhaps to little, add more
items, redistribute the load manually and then se-
lect the spinning programme.
The machine makes an
unusual noise:
The machine is fitted with a type of motor which
makes an unusual noise compared with other tradi-
tional motors. This new motor ensures a softer start
and more even distribution of the laundry in the drum
when spinning, as well as increased stability of the ma-
chine.
No water is visible in
the drum:
Machines based on modern technology operate very
economically using very little water without affecting
performance.
The display shows the
alarm code
:
Anti-flooding system has activated.
• Pull out the plug from the power socket, close the
water tap and contact the Service Force Centre.
