11 Trouble shooting
Warning: If the problem cannot be eliminated, even after the instructions have been
followed, consult with your dealer or Authorized Service Agent. Never try to repair a
non functional machine yourself.
The following conditions are normal to the operation of the washer and are not faults:
1. During washing or rinsing there is water
inlet into the wash tub. This is due to a
water level decrease, the machine will
compensate by automatically adding
water in this case.
2. The spin tub stops and starts at the
beginning of the spinning cycle. This is
intermittent spinning for more effectual
spinning.
3. Water inlet and rinsing occur during
spinning. This is due to the automatic lean
correction that compensates for uneven
distribution of clothing in the wash tub.
4. There is a sound like water flowing after
spinning. This is due to the balancing
liquid in the balance ring which helps
reduce vibration during the spinning
process.
5. The control panel remains warm after the
machine has been powered off. This is
due to the “Remember” function circuitry
operating.
6. A power failure during a washing cycle:
The machine could not complete the
cycle. Please reset the washing cycle.
