General problems with the washing machine

Problem
The machine shakes
during the spin cycle.
The laundry has not
been spun properly and
is still wet.
Strange pump noises
can be heard.
Large amounts of de‐
tergent residue remain
in the detergent dis‐
penser drawer.
Fabric conditioner is
not completely dis‐
pensed or too much
water remains in the 
compartment.
Cause and remedy
The machine feet are not level.
 Level the machine and adjust the feet correctly.
The machine detected an imbalance during the final
spin cycle and reduced the spin speed automatically.
 Include both large and small items in the load as
this will give better distribution during spinning.
This is not a fault.
These slurping noises occur at the end of the pump
sequence as a normal part of operation.
The water pressure is too low.
 Clean the water inlet filter.
 It may be useful to select the Water plus option.
Powder detergent used in conjunction with water
softeners tends to become sticky.
 In future, add washing powder into the dispenser
drawer first, and then add the water softener.
The siphon tube is not correctly positioned or is clog‐
ged.
 Clean the siphon, see "Cleaning and care - Clean‐
ing the detergent dispenser drawer".
