The machine is noisy.   

The machine wont spin properly.

            

The machine leaks from the di-
spenser.

 

The machine leaks (other than 
dispenser).

The indicator lights on the conso-
le are flashing rapidly.

The machine smells.

The machine door cannot be 
opened.

Door Seal damaged at the bottom.

The water level is too low when 
the machine is washing.

There is too much foam.

After completing the programme, 
or before starting a programme, 
the  

machine has turned itself 

off (no lights).

General.

•  There will always be some motor, pump and drum noise during spin.

•  Out of Balance detected when attempting to go into a spin cycle -    

 

  If this happens the machine will continue to try to repeat the  

 

 

  distribution of the load required before the machine will go into  

 

 

  higher spin speeds - This will increase the programme time  

 

 

  accordingly. This is a safety feature to prevent damage.  Out of  

 

 

  Balance can be caused by washing a single heavy item (eg duvet,    

 

  quilt, etc). - Try the programme again using a different load.

•  The dispenser drawer is blocked with detergent and requires cleaning.
•  The water pressure is too high and requires turning down - turn  

 

 

  down the tap on the water supply pipe slightly and try again.
•  The machine is tilting forwards - It must be level when in its final position.

•  The fill hose is loose, check both the cabinet and tap ends.
•  The fill hose is tight but still leaks, if so replace the rubber    

 

 

  washers, or the fill hose is missing the rubber washer.
•  The drain hose is not fixed in properly.

•  Switch off the machine and unplug it, wait for approximately 1  

 

 

  minute and then switch it back on again If the problem persists  

 

 

  contact the Technical Assistance Service.

•  The machine requires a service wash. Run n°1 wash cycle with  

 

 

  detergent and no laundry.

•  The door will not open until the door lock indicator light goes out    

 

  shortly after the program has finished.

•  The door seal has drainage holes at the bottom - This is normal.

•  The water level is correct if it can be seen at the bottom of the door

•  The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should  

 

 

  display the text ‘for washing machines’ or ‘hand and machine  

 

 

  wash’ or the like).

• To comply with new energy saving regulations the machine is fitted with an 

automatic standby system. Press ‘ON/OFF’ button for 3 seconds to activate 
the machine, it can then either be switched off or a new programme selected.

•  Your washing machine contains sensors that monitor progress  

 

 

  during the wash cycle (eg: Water Levels, Temperatures, Out of  

 

 

  Balance loads, Wash time/progress). Normally, if your machine  

 

 

  successfully completes the cycle, there is unlikely to be anything    

 

  wrong!

Remember, you will be charged for a service call for problems caused by incorrect installation, as indica-

ted on pages 2 to 4.
Not emptying contents from pockets may cause pump or drain blockages, or may damage the machine.
Do not wash items which do not have a wash label, or wash items that are not intended as machine  

washable.
