Solutions
• Child lock is activated. Deactivate the child lock function.
• The washing machine is operating a wash programme.
• The Programme Dial was turned to a different programme.
• Door lock may be active.
• The water temperature or level could be too high.
First press Start/Pause button or turn the machine off. Secondly
turn the Programme Dial to the correct programme, spin speed or
optional function you want. Press the Start/Pause button to start
the new programme. (Note: We suggest that you do not change the
programme after the machine has been running for 3 minutes.)
• Rubber parts and the motors may give off a smell when you first
start using the washing machine, but this goes away over time.
• You should wash the drum once a month.
This is normal: The water level is below the window.
• The water tap might be turned off.
• The water hose or water-supply hose may be frozen.
• Your water supply may be disrupted.
• The water-supply valve filter may be clogged.
• If you have paused the programme and you restart, the washing
machine may drain some water.
• Don't pour water in through the door.
This is normal: water is supplied automatically as the level lowers,
and with heavy loads the water may fill up repeatedly.
The rinse hold may be active. Select the spin speed to continue.
If a small load is in the washing machine, it may be detected as an
unbalanced load and may stop spinning after a number of attempts.
Select the manual spin.
Before rinsing, the washing machine spins to drain water remaining
from the wash. The water will fill up after that.
This is normal. The washing machine has detected an unbalanced
load and is trying to correct it.
Although foam and water may remain, it does not have any
influence on the performance of a rinse.
This is normal. Although spin starting may be repeated, it is a
function made to spin quietly.
