Possible causes

 

 

 

The machine vibrates when spinning

The internal packing has not been removed.

 

The machine is in contact with the wall or furniture.

 

The machine is not stable and level (check diagonally).

 

The washing load is badly distributed in the drum.

 

Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.

 

 

 

The door will not open

The programme is still running.

 

The door lock has not yet released (the “door” light is still on).

 

Water in the tub: the door cannot be opened if water is present in the

 

 

tub.

 

 

 

Spinning starts late or the machine

The electronic balance control device has cut in because the laundry is

does not spin

 

not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redistributed by

 

 

reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several times before the

 

 

unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume. If, after 10

 

 

minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed in the drum, the

 

 

machine will not spin. In this case, redistribute the load manually and

 

 

reselect the spin programme.

 

 

 

The machine makes an unusual

The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual

noise

 

noise compared with other traditional motors. This new motor ensures

 

 

a softer start and more even distribution of the laundry in the drum

 

 

when spinning, as well as increased stability of the machine.

 

 

 

No water is visible in the drum

Machines based on modern technology operate very economically

 

 

using very little water without affecting performance.
