NOTE: The problem indicators can be cleared by pressing the START/PAUSE button once. To clear the emergency stop press the START/PAUSE button again to restart the operation.
Warning: If the problem cannot be eliminated, even after the instructions have been followed, consult with your dealer or Authorized Service Agent. Never try to repair a non functional machine yourself.
The following conditions are normal to the operation of the washer and are not faults:
1.During washing or rinsing there is water inlet into the wash tub. This is due to a water level decrease, the machine will compensate by automatically adding water in this case.
2.The spin tub stops and starts at the beginning of the spinning cycle. This is intermittent spinning for more effectual spinning.
3.Water inlet and rinsing occur during spinning. This is due to the automatic lean correction that compensates for uneven distribution of clothing in the wash tub.
4.There is a sound like water flowing after spinning. This is due to the balancing liquid in the balance ring which helps reduce vibration during the spinning process.
5.The control panel remains warm after the machine has been powered off. This is due to the “Remember” function circuitry operating.
6.A power failure during a washing cycle: The machine could not complete the cycle. Please reset the washing cycle.
