Something not working
If the washing machine is not working correctly, please carry out the following checks before
contacting your local Service Force agent.
IMPORTANT: if you call out an engineer to a fault listed below, or to repair a fault caused by incorrect use or
installation, a charge will be made even if the appliance is under guarantee.
During machine operation it is possible that the buzzer sounds, the red light of the Start/Pause button flashes and
one of the following alarm codes appears on the display:

: problem with water draining
-

Once the problem has been eliminated, press the Start/Pause button to restart the programme. If after all checks,
the problem persists, contact your local Service Force Centre.
