ZZZZ...
Too much foam.
Is the detergent appropriate
for machine washing? Check
whether the definition on its
label reads for machine wash
or hand and machine wash,
or any other similar wording.
Is the correct amount being
used? An excessive amount of
detergent, besides producing
too much foam, does not
guarantee a more effective
wash, and causes scaling in the
internal parts of the appliance.
The washer-dryer
does not dry.
Check whether:
the plug has been correctly
inserted into the socket; there
is electricity in your home; the
appliance door has been shut
properly; a delayed start (if
available) has not been
selected; program knob A
has been set to Reset and
the drying cycle knob C has
been set to position
0 minutes.
The washer-dryer doesn't
dry properly.
Check whether:
1) the end of the drain hose
is underwater; 2) the drain
pump is obstructed; 3) the
advice given on the maxi-
mum loads has been taken;
4) the water tap has been
turned on.
If, despite all checks, the
washer-dryer fails to function
and the problem persists, call
your nearest authorized
Customer Service Centre,
1-800-426-0825 providing the
following information:
- the nature of malfunction
- the model type no. (Mod. ....)
- the serial number (S/N ....)
This information can be found
on the data plate situated at the
back of the washer-dryer.
Is there space between the
machine and adjacent
units? If it is not a built-in
model, the washer-dryer will
oscillate a bit during the spin
cycle. A few cm of space
should therefore be left
around it.
The washer-dryer
leaks.
Is the metal ring of the inlet
hose properly attached?
Turn off the water supply,
unplug the appliance and try
tightening its attachment
without forcing it.
Is the detergent dispenser
obstructed? Remove and
wash it under tap water.
Is the drain hose well
attached? Turn off the water
supply, unplug the
appliance and try tightening
its attachment.
Is the drain hose kinked?
The drain hose must be as
straight as possible. Make
sure the drain hose is not
crimped or kinked.
Is the washer-dryers drain
hose clogged? Is there an
extension of the drain hose?
If so, is it positioned
incorrectly, blocking the
water flow?
Excessive vibration
during the spin cycle.
Have all shipping bolts
been removed during
installation? See the
following page on
installation procedures.
Has the washer-dryer been
levelled correctly? The
levelling of the appliance
should be checked
periodically. Adjust the feet
and check them with a level.
The washer-dryer
does not drain or
spin.
Does the selected program
incorporate water drai-
ning? Some programs stop
at the end of the wash cycle
and draining will have to be
selected manually.
Is the Easy iron" function
-where provided - enabled?
This function requires
manual selection for
draining.
Is the drain pump clogged?
To check it, turn off the water
supply, unplug the washer-
