Problem solving guide

Despite adequate water supply press-

ure, the machine takes a long time to

fill.

Clean the filters in the water inlet sys-

tem as described on page 25.

Large amounts of unused detergent

remain in the dispenser drawer.

Water supply pressure is too low.

Clean the filters as described on

page 25.

Select the “Water plus” function if

necessary.

Washing powder becomes viscous

when used together with a water sof-

tener.

In future pour washing powder into

the detergent dispenser before ad-

ding water softener.

Fabric conditioner is not completely

dispensed or water remains in the

compartment p .

The dispenser drawer was opened

while fabric conditioner was being

flushed in.

The siphon tube is either incorrectly po-

sitioned or clogged. Clean as de-

scribed on page 22.

Excessive build-up of foam

To avoid this problem from the outset,

take note of the following points:

Follow the manufacturer’s dosage

recommendations on packaging

carefully.

Take the water hardness level into ac-

count.

For lightly soiled articles or a small

load, reduce the amount of deter-

gent accordingly.

Pre-soaked items should be rinsed

thoroughly before washing.

The “Pre-wash” indicator lamp is

flashing.

Start the programme again.

If the indicator still flashes call the Ser-

vice Department.

The “Main wash” indicator lamp

flashes during, or after the end of a

programme.

If this occurs again with the next pro-

gramme there is a technical fault. Call

the Service Department.

Laundry is either not spun at all or

not spun satisfactorily.

The selected spin speed was too low.

The machine was not able to distrib-

ute the laundry load evenly. To pro-

tect the machine, laundry was either

only spun at a reduced speed or not

at all.

Large items which tangle or roll up in

the drum (e.g. bath mats) can cause

an imbalance during the spin cycle.

For safety reasons, the machine

does not spin if this is the case. At-

tempts to build up spin speed are re-

peated, however, until the time allo-

cated to spinning has expired.

It is therefore important to make up

mixed loads consisting of large and

small items.

The fluff filter may be clogged.

Clean the filter and the pump as de-

scribed on page 23-24.
