General.

•There will always be some motor, pump and drum noise during spin.

•Out of Balance detected when attempting to go into a spin cycle - If this happens the machine will continue to try to repeat the distribution of the load required before the machine will go into higher spin speeds - This will increase

the programme time accordingly. This is a safety feature to prevent damage. Out of Balance can be caused by washing a single heavy item (eg duvet, quilt, etc). - Try the programme again using a different load.

•The dispenser drawer is blocked with detergent and requires cleaning.

•The water pressure is too high and requires turning down - turn down the tap on the water supply pipe slightly and try again.

•The machine is tilting forwards - It must be level when in its final position.

•The fill hose is loose, check both the cabinet and tap ends.

•The fill hose is tight but still leaks, if so replace the rubber washers, or the fill hose is missing the rubber washer.

•The drain hose is not fixed in properly.

•Switch off the machine and unplug it, wait for approximately 1 minute and then switch it back on again If the problem persists contact the Technical Assistance Service.

•The machine requires a service wash. Run a 90 degree wash cycle with detergent and no laundry.

•The door will not open until the door lock indicator light goes out shortly after the program has finished.

•The door seal has drainage holes at the bottom - This is normal.

•The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the text ‘for washing machines’ or ‘hand and machine wash’ or the like).

•To comply with new energy saving regulations the machine is fitted with an automatic standby system. Press ‘ON/OFF’ button for 3 seconds to activate the machine, it can then either be switched off or a new programme selected.

•Your washing machine contains sensors that monitor progress during

the wash cycle (eg: Water Levels, Temperatures, Out of Balance loads, Wash time/progress). Normally, if your machine successfully completes the cycle, there is unlikely to be anything wrong!

Remember, you will be charged for a service call for problems caused by incorrect installation, as listed above.

Not emptying contents from pockets may cause pump or drain blockages, or may damage the machine.

Do not wash items which do not have a wash label, or wash items that are not intended as machine wa- shable.
