MACHINE WILL NOT START

1. Is the door properly closed? Press it shut firm- ly.

2.Check whether the Delayed start option is switched on. The time remaining to start will then be indicated in the display in whole hours,

e.g. . To change: interrupt the program- me, change the setting, and restart.

3.Is power cut off? Check the fuses.

4.Is the child lock switched on? If it is switched

on, hold down the button for three se- conds; see Chapter 3, Child safety.

DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE

If the door opens again immediately when you try to close it, check to make sure that you have made correct programme settings. If this does not help then there is probably a safety fault. Phone service.

DOOR WILL NOT OPEN

1.Check that the main power switch is On.

2.Is the power supply cut off? Check the fuses.

The door cannot be opened using the button if the power supply is broken.

3.If the door cannot be opened in the normal manner, proceed as follows to make an emer- gency opening:

Check first that there is no water left in the machine. If there is, drain the machine as ex- plained under the heading, Cleaning the coin trap and drain pump, in Chapter 11, Care and cleaning.

Make certain that the main power switch is OFF.

Open the drain pump cover, down to the left. Use the par-

tition piece from the detergent compartment, as

illustrated.

Unscrew the screw holding the red plastic handle in pla-

ce.

• Pull the handle and the door will open.

Put the handle into its slot and screw it into place. Close the drain pump cover.

If the door still cannot be opened in the nor- mal way after this, phone for service.
