AEG 16950A3 Washer/Dryer User Manual


 
Problem Possible cause/Solution
Spinning starts late or the machine does not
spin:
The electronic unbalance detection device has
cut in because the laundry is not evenly distrib-
uted in the drum. The laundry is redistributed
by reverse rotation of the drum. This may hap-
pen several times before the unbalance disap-
pears and normal spinning can resume. If, after
some minutes, the laundry is still not evenly
distributed in the drum, the machine will not
spin.
The laundry load is perhaps to little, add
more items, redistribute the load manually
and then select the spinning programme.
The machine makes an unusual noise:
The machine is fitted with a type of motor
which makes an unusual noise compared with
other traditional motors. This new motor en-
sures a softer start and more even distribution
of the laundry in the drum when spinning, as
well as increased stability of the machine.
No water is visible in the drum:
Machines based on modern technology operate
very economically using very little water with-
out affecting performance.
The display shows the alarm code :
Anti-flooding system has activated.
Disconnect the appliance, close the water tap
and contact the Service Force Centre
The laundry is full of different colored fluff:
The fabrics washed in the previous cycle re-
leased fluff of a different color (refer to “Fluff in
the garments” in chapter “Use - Washing &
Drying”).
The drying phase helps to eliminate some
fluff.
Clean the clothes with a fluff remover.
In case of an excessive amount of fluff in the
drum repeat the following procedure twice:
Thoroughly clean the empty drum, the gasket
and the door with a wet rag.
Perform a rinse cycle.
Put a wool or piled fabric rag inside the
drum.
Perform a drying cycle of 10 minutes.
Remove the old wool cloth.
Now you can wash other garments.
