Troubleshooting guide

Should anything go wrong with the functio- ning of the washing machine, you can pro- bably put it right by referring to the follo- wing advice.

However, should the problem persist, unplug the washing machine and contact our TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE SERVICE. There are no fuses or analogue compo- nents which can be changed by the user. But we urge you that under no circumstan- ces should you attempt to open up the machine.

There is no electricity

The washing machine is not plugged in at the mains.

The fuses on the fuse board have blown.

Important:

Some models (high speed spin dry) have a safety device incorporated into their spin dry programmes which means that the programme will stop should the garments inside the drum concentrate in such a way as to create an excessive level of vibrations. Should you ever find that the garments are not sufficiently wrung out, try spin drying them once more after you have distributed them more evenly inside the drum.

Drying instructions

The drying system

The drying process occurs due to hot air circulating in a closed circuit and steam condensing by means of refrigeration with mains water.

Therefore IT IS ABSOLUTELY IMPERATIVE FOR THE MAINS WATER TAP TO BE TUR- NED ON DURING THE DRYING CYCLES ALSO.

The water drainage pump will simultane- ously switch on at regular intervals during the whole drying programme in order to release the refrigeration water in addition to the water coming from the condensation.

During the last few minutes of the drying cycle, there is no heating up of circulating air. This is in order to even out the tempe- ratures inside the drum so that no creases should form. You are strongly recommen- ded NOT TO INTERRUPT THIS FINAL STAGE.

Preparing the garments

Check the manufacturer’s instructions on all garment labels and make sure that they can be machine dried. Do not machine dry any excessively delicate items such as cur-
