185426
If the washing machine identifies failures in the operation, it reports it
immediately. Sound alarm is heard and the display reads ERROR. Number
identifies the type of failure.
In some cases you may attempt removing certain failures yourself (see the
chart below), and the machine will continue to perform the operation after
pressing the START knob (F). The machine signals failures immediately after
detecting them and stops the program, except for heater failure, where the
machine completes the washing program without heating water (FAILURE 1).
In case the machine signals faults number you have to wait for
at least 2 minutes before you can open the door of the washing
machine.
Interferences from the ambient (for example electrical wiring) could induce
signalization of different faults. In such cases:
- switch the appliance off, and wait for a few seconds;
- switch the appliance back on and repeat the washing program.
If the fault repeats, call authorized service shop.
Warranty shall not apply in case of failures due to interferences from the
environment (lightning stroke, power supply circuit faults, natural disasters).
