Your washing machine could fail to work. Before calling for Assistance (see page 14), make sure the problem
can't easily be solved by consulting the following list.
Troubleshooting
Problem
The washing machine won't
start.
The wash cycle won't start.
The washing machine fails to
load water.
The washing machine
continuously loads and
unloads water.
The washing machine does not
drain or spin.
The washing machine vibrates
too much during the spin
cycle.
The washing machine leaks.
The ON-OFF/DOOR LOCKED
Led flashes rapidly at the same
time as at least one other LED.
There is too much foam.
Possible causes/Solution:
The appliance is not plugged into the socket, or not enough to
make contact.
There has been a power failure.
The appliance door is not shut properly.
The ON/OFF button has not been pressed.
The START button has not been pressed.
The water tap is not turned on.
The water inlet hose is not connected to the tap.
The hose is bent.
The water tap is not turned on.
There is a water shortage.
The water pressure is insufficient.
The START button has not been pressed.
The drain hose is not fitted between 65 and 100 cm from the floor
(see page 3).
The free end of the hose is underwater (see page 3).
The wall drainage system doesn't have a breather pipe.
If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water
tap, switch the appliance off and call for Assistance. If the dwelling is
on one of the upper floors of a building, there may be drain trap
problems causing the washing machine to load and unload water
continuously. In order to avoid such an inconvenience, special anti-
drain trap valves are available in shops.
The programme does not foresee the draining: some programmes
require enabling the draining manually (see page 8).
The Easy Iron function is enabled: to complete the programme,
press the START button (see page 9).
The drain hose is bent (see page 3).
The drain duct is clogged.
The drum was not unblocked correctly during installation (see page 2).
The washing machine is not level (see page 2).
The washing machine is closed in between furniture cabinets and
the wall (see page 2).
The water inlet hose is not screwed on correctly (see page 2).
The detergent dispenser is obstructed (to clean it, see page 12).
The drain hose is not secured properly (see page 3).
Switch off the machine and unplug the appliance; wait for
approximately 1 minute then switch it on again.
If the problem persists, contact Assistance.
The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should bear
the definition "for washing machines" or "hand and machine wash",
or the like).
You used too much detergent.
