Resolving minor problems yourself

Experience has shown that you can resolve most problems that occur during normal daily usage yourself, without having to call out a service engineer. Not only does this save costs but it also means that the appliance is available to use. The following list of common occurrences and their remedies should help you identify the causes of most problems.

Problems when the unit is switched on

Appliance does not start up

Fault with fuse in mains electricity supply.

Plug not inserted in wall socket.

Appliance door not closed properly.

Programme button has not been pressed. Water tap not turned on.

Blocked strainer in water intake hose.

Caution: Remember that repairs should only be carried out by a suitably qualified specialist. Improper repairs can lead to considerable equipment damage as well as danger to the user.

Problems with the appliance

Error display on the programme indicator

When the programme indicators A1 and A2 blink (Fig.4-1). Have you checked if the door is closed properly?

When the programme indicators A1, A2 and A3 blink (Fig.4-2). Have you checked if: the water is turned on and the hose is connected properly; the water supply to the house is on and has sufficient pressure; the water supply hose is crimped or bent, or the filter for the water supply hose is clogged; the drain hose is too low.

When the programme indicators A1, A3 and A4 blink (Fig.4-3). Have you checked if: the drain hose is crimped or bent, or the drain hose is too high?

When the programme indicators A1 and A4 blink (Fig.4-4). Have you checked if the drain hose is too low?

If, after these checks the dishwasher still does not function or has any other error displayed, press the programme button and hold it in for about 3 seconds, then press the ON-OFF button to OFF. Wait a few minutes then turn the dishwasher back on and try again. If the dishwasher still does not function and/or the problem persists, contact the nearest authorized service centre and provide them with the following information:

1.The nature of the problem.

2.The model type number (Mod...) and serial number (S/N...), as indicated on the plate located on the side of the inner part of the door.
