Even though your washing machine has been carefully
designed and constructed, something could still go a miss
with your machine. Before rushing to phone one of our
service centres, however, please check that the operations
listed below have been carried out. In many cases you will
save time, money and bother. Our statistics show that many
of the calls received by our service centres could have been
avoided with just a little more attention.
Check that:
the plug is pushed right into the mains socket;
the door is closed tightly:
the "ON/OFF" button has been pressed.
Check that:
the tap is open and properly connected to the inlet
pipe;
the inlet pipe is not bent.
Check that:
the drain pipe is placed at least 80 cm/32 inches
above ground level.
Check that:
the drain pipe is not blocked;
the drain pipe is not connected at a height more than
1 metre/40 inches above ground level.
Check that:
the detergent being used is meant for automatic
machines and not for washing by hand;
that the amount used is that shown in this manual
and not more.
