Possible causes / Solutions:

•There is no water supply to the house.

•The START/PAUSE button has not been pressed.

•The top of the drain hose is too low - It must be fitted at a height between 65 and 100 cm from the floor (see “Installation”).

•The drain hose is connected incorrectly to the sink trap allowing water to run into the machine, the drain hose must be positioned higher than the bottom of the sink to prevent water flowing down the drain hose.

•Programme times will vary due to water pressure, the incoming water temperature and if the wash load goes out of balance. This will increase the programme times accordingly (see ‘ The machine wont spin properly’ below).

•The display time is for guidance only - it is not a precise time to finish and may vary.

•The feet have not been adjusted, enabling the machine to rock.
