Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved easily without calling out an engineer. Before contacting your local Service Force Centre (see page 33 , Service and Spare Parts), please carry out the checks listed below.

IMPORTANT: if you call out an engineer to a fault listed below, or to repair a fault caused by incorrect use or installation, a charge will be made even if the appliance is under guarantee.

During machine operation it is possible that the “End” light starts to flash, one of the following alarm codes appears on the display and in the same time the buzzer sounds:

-E10 : problem with the water supply

-E20 : problem with water draining

-E40 : door open

Once the problem has been eliminated, press the “Start/Pause” button to restart the programme. If after all checks, the problem persists, contact your local Service Force Centre.
