Symptom
The door will not open
● The programme is still running.
● The door lock has not yet released.
● There is water in tub. The door can not be opened if water is present in
the tub.
The machine makes an unusual
noise ● The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual
noise compared with other traditional motors. This new motor ensures
a softer start and more even distribution of the laundry in the drum
when spinning, as well as increased stability of the machine.
The machine does not dry or does
not dry properly ● The drying time has not been selected
● The RINSE HOLD option has been selected
● The water tap is not turned on
● The drain filter is clogged
● The machine is overloaded
● The selected drying time or sector are not suitable for the laundry
Possible causes
Spinning starts late or the machine
does not spin ● The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the
laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is
redistributed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several
times before the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume.
If, after 20 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed in the
drum, the machine will not spin. In this case, redistribute the load
manually and reselect the spin programme.
No water is visible in the drum ● Machines based on modern technology operate very economically
using very little water without affecting performance.
