GB

 

Problem:

The Washer-dryer does not switch on.

The wash cycle does not start.

The washing machine does not take in water ("H2O" will flash on the display).

The Washer-dryer continuously takes in and

drains water.

The Washer-dryer does not drain or spin.

The Washer-dryer vibrates a lot during the spin cycle.

The Washer-dryer leaks.

Possible causes / Solutions:

The appliance is not plugged into the socket fully, or is not making contact.

There is no power in the house.

The Washer-dryer door is not closed properly.

The ON/OFF button has not been pressed.

The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.

The water tap has not been opened.

The drain hose is not fitted at a height between 65 and 100 cm from the floor (see “Installation”).

The free end of the hose is under water (see “Installation”).

The wall drainage system is not fitted with a breather pipe.

If the problem persists even after these checks, turn off the water tap, switch the appliance off and contact the Assistance Service. If the dwelling is on one of the upper floors of a building, there may be problems relating to water drainage, causing the Washer-dryer to fill with water and drain continuously. Special anti- draining valves are available in shops and help to avoid this inconvenience.

The drain hose is bent (see “Installation”).

The drain hose is not fixed properly (see “Installation”).

The "Functions" indicator lights and the "start/pause" indicator light flash, while one of the "phase in progress" indicator lights and the "door locked" indicator light will remain lit in a fixed manner.

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.

There is too much foam.

The washer-dryer does not dry.

The detergent is not suitable for machine washing (it should display the text “for Washer-dryers” or “hand and machine wash”, or the like).

Too much detergent was used.

There has been a power failure.

The appliance door is not shut properly.

A delayed start has been set.
