Electrolux 16850A Washer/Dryer User Manual


 
Problem Possible cause/Solution
The machine vibrates or is noisy:
The transit bolts and packing have not been
removed.
Check the correct installation of the appli-
ance.
The support feet have not been adjusted
Check the correct levelling of the appliance.
The laundry is not evenly distributed in the
drum.
Redistribute the laundry.
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
Load more laundry.
Spinning starts late or the machine does
not spin:
The electronic unbalance detection device has
cut in because the laundry is not evenly dis-
tributed in the drum. The laundry is redistrib-
uted by reverse rotation of the drum. This may
happen several times before the unbalance
disappears 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 oper-
ate very economically using very little water
without 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
