Description

Your washer-dryer 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.

Problem

The washer-dryer won't start.

The washer-dryer does not fill

with water.

The machine continuously fills

and empties with water.

The washer-dryer does not

drain or spin.

The washer-dryer vibrates too

much during the spin cycle.

The washer-dryer leaks.

The ON-OFF/DOOR LOCK Led

flashes rapidly at the same

time as at least one other LED.

There is too much foam.

The washer-dryer does not dry.

Possible causes/Solution:

• The appliance is not plugged into the socket, or not enough to make contact.

fabrics. See page 8 for details of the final spin speed for each program.

require enabling the draining manually (see page 8).

the START/RESET button (see page 9).

• The drain hose is bent (see page 3).

• Remove the drain hose from the standpipe or under-sink trap and
