Note:
The machine is fitted with a balance control de-
vice, which ensures the machine is stable during the spin.
To protect the machine, it will cut in if the laundry is not
evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redistribut-
ed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen sev-
eral times before the unbalance disappears and normal
spinning can resume. If, after 15 minutes, the laundry is
still not evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will
not spin. In this case, redistributed the load manually and
reselect the spin programme.
