TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

This washing machine is equipped with automatic

safety functions which detect and diagnose faults at

an early stage and allow you to react appropriately.

Often, however, the faults detected are small

enough to be solved in a matter of minutes.

For example:

The appliance will not start, no lamp or

display (depending on model) lights up.

Check whether:

•

the appliance is plugged in;

•

the wall socket is functioning correctly

(use a table lamp or similar);

•

a programme is selected correctly.

The appliance will not start, but the

“Start/Pause” lamp is flashing.

Check whether:

•

the programme has been changed;

•

the appliance door is properly shut. Open and

shut it again.

“dEM” appears on the LCD display (if

available) every five seconds or the

appliance doesn't start although the

LCD display simulates a running wash

cycle (remaining time indication is

running fast).

Check whether:

•

demonstration function was activated

accidentally on your appliance;

•

disactivate the demonstration function by:

Moving the programme selector knob to “Drain”.

Pressing buttons in the following sequence:

“Prewash” button / “+ button” (temperature) /

“Prewash” button / “+ button” (temperature).

The appliance stops during the programme.

Check whether:

•

the

“Rinse Hold”

lamp is on, terminate this

option by pressing the button again;

•

another programme has been selected.

reselect the desired programme and press the

“Start/Pause”

button;

•

the

“Start/Pause”

lamp is flashing. Press the

“Start/Pause”

button;

•

the safety system of the appliance was activated.

See fault description table.

The Start/Pause button is flashing or no

“End” appears on the LCD display

(if available) at the programme end.

Move the programme selection knob to “Drain”

and press the

“Start/Pause”

button; if your

washing machine has an LCD display, press the

“Reset” button.

Check whether:

•

Laundry is correctly washed by opening the drum

door flaps and feel load humidity. When laundry

is not washed, please reselect programme,

options and press

“Start/Pause”

button to start

a new programme.

•

The safety system of the appliance was activated.

See fault description table.

Detergent and additive product residues

in dispenser at end of wash.

Check whether:

•

the detergent dispenser is properly installed and

is not blocked (see “Care and Maintenance”);

•

the foreign body trap in the water inlet hose is

not blocked (see “Care and Maintenance”).

The appliance vibrates during the spin cycle.

Check whether:

•

the appliance is level and that all the feet are

adjusted (see “Installation”);

•

the transport bracket has been removed. Before

starting up the appliance, the transport screws

and the transport bracket MUST be removed

(see “Installation”).

Final spin results are poor.

Check whether:

•

the pump impeller is obstructed (see “Cleaning

The Foreign Body Trap”).

•

if the laundry is still too wet at the end of the

programme: possibly add other items of clothing

and repeat the spin cycle.

•

there is foam on the washing: repeat a rinse-spin

cycle and avoid excessive quantities of detergent.

Note:

The appliance has an imbalance detection and

correction system. If individual heavy items are

loaded (a bathrobe, for example), this system may

reduce the spin speed automatically or interrupt

the spin if it detects too great an imbalance at the

start of the spin, in order to protect the appliance.

Excessive foam formation may also prevent spinning.
