Troubleshooting

Your  washer-dryer  could  occasionally  fail  to  work.  Before  contacting  the  Technical  Assistance  Service  (

see  “

Service”

), make sure that the problem cannot be not solved easily using the following list.

Problem:

The washer-dryer does not

switch  on.

The wash cycle does not start.

The  washer-dryer  does  not  fill

with  water  (the  text  “H2O”

flashes on the display).

The  washer-dryer  continuously

takes in and drains water.

The washer-dryer does not

drain or spin.

The  washer-dryer  vibrates  a  lot

during the spin cycle.

The  washer-dryer  leaks.

The “option” and START/PAUSE

indicator lights flash rapidly and

an error code appears on the

display (e.g.: F-01, F-..).
There is too much foam.

The washer-dryer does not dry.

Possible causes / Solutions:

• The appliance is not plugged into the socket fully, or not enough to make

contact.

• There is no power in the house.
• The washer-dryer door is not closed properly.

• The ON/OFF button has not been pressed.

• The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.

• The water tap has not been opened.

• A delayed start has been set

.

• The water inlet hose is not connected to the tap.

• The hose is bent.

• The water tap has not been opened.

• There is no water supply in the house.

• The pressure is too low.

• The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.
• The drain hose is not fitted at a height between 65 and 100 cm from the floor

(

see  “Installation”)

.

• The free end of the hose is under water (

see “Installation”

)

.

• The wall drainage system is not fitted with a breather pipe.

If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water tap, switch the

appliance off and contact the Technical Assistance Service. If the dwelling is on one

of the upper floors of a building, there may be problems relating to water drainage,

causing the washer-dryer to fill with water and drain continuously. Special anti-

draining valves are available in shops and help to prevent this inconvenience.
• The wash cycle does not include draining: some cycles require the draining

process to be enabled manually.

• The EASY IRON option is enabled: To complete the wash cycle, press the

START/PAUSE button (

see “Wash cycles and options”).

• The drain hose is bent (

see “Installation”

)

.

• The drainage duct is clogged.
• The drum was not unlocked correctly during installation (

see “Installation”)

.

• The washer-dryer is not level (

see “Installation”)

.

• The washer-dryer is trapped between cabinets and walls (

see “Installation”)

.

• The water inlet hose is not screwed on properly (

see “Installation”

)

.

• The detergent dispenser drawer is blocked (for cleaning instructions, 

see “Care

and  maintenance”)

.

• The drain hose is not fixed properly (

see “Installation”

)

.

• 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 detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the text

“for washer-dryers” or “hand and machine wash”, or the like).

• Too  much  detergent  was  used.

• The appliance is not plugged into the socket, or not enough to make contact.

• There has been a power failure.

• The appliance door is not shut properly.

• A  DELAY  TIMER  has  been  set.

• DRYING is in the OFF

 

position.
