TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
This washing machine is equipped with automatic
safety functions which detect and diagnose faults at an
early stage and allow you to react appropriately.
Often, however, the faults detected are small
enough to be solved in a matter of minutes.
For example:
*The washing machine does not start, no
lamp lights up.
Check whether:
the washing machine is plugged in.
the wall socket is functioning correctly
(use a table lamp or similar).
*The washing machine does not start, but
the pilot lamp is on.
Check whether:
the washing machine lid is properly closed. Open
and close it again.
a programme has been selected.
the water tap is open.
*The washing machine stops during the
programme.
Check whether:
the “Rinse Hold” button is pressed: terminate
this option by pressing the button again.
the water tap is open.
the pump/foreign body trap is blocked (see
“Cleaning the Foreign Body Trap”).
the Water stop could be activated (see “Water
stop fault”).
*Insufficient or no water supply.
Switch off the washing machine and unplug it.
Check whether:
the water tap is fully turned on, and the water
supply pressure is sufficient.
the water inlet hose is kinked.
the mesh filter in the water inlet hose is blocked
(see “Care and maintenance”).
