Possible causes/Solution:

• The door is not closed properly.
• The ‘ON/OFF’ button has not been pressed.
• The ‘START/PAUSE’ button has not been pressed.

• There is no water supply to the house.
• The inlet valve filter is blocked.
• The ‘START/PAUSE’ button has not been pressed.
• The top of the drain hose is too low - It must be fitted at a height
between 65 and 100 cm from the floor.
• The drain hose is connected incorrectly to the sink trap allowing
water to run into the machine, the drain hose must be positioned
higher than the bottom of the sink to prevent water flowing down the
drain hose.

the ‘U’ bracket should be fitted 100 mm from the end of the drain hose.

if connected under a sink.

the drain phase to be started manually.
• The REDUCED CREASES function button has been activated. To complete
the wash cycle, press the START/PAUSE button.
• The ‘Spin Speed’ selector knob is in the position.
• The ‘Temperature’ selector knob is in the position.
• Programme times will vary due to water pressure, the incoming
water temperature and if the wash load goes out of balance.
This will increase the programme times accordingly (see ‘ The
machine wont spin properly’ below).
• The feet have not been adjusted, enabling the machine to rock.
• New Installation - Either the Transit Bolts including the plastic spacers, or the
Polystyrene Packaging have not been removed when installing the machine.

at a lower speed.
