Problem Possible cause/Solution
Spinning starts late or the ma-
chine does not spin:
The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the laundry is
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 laun-
dry is still not evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will not spin. In
this case, redistribute the load manually and select the spin programme.
• Redistribute the laundry.
The load is too small.
• Add more items, redistribute the load manually and then select the spin-
ning programme.
The machine does not dry or
does not dry properly:
The drying time has not been selected.
• Select the drying time.
The water tap is not turned on.
• Open the water tap.
The drain filter is clogged.
• Clean the drain filter.
The machine is overloaded.
• Reduce the laundry load.
The selected drying time or the drying programme was not suitable for the
laundry.
• Select the suitable drying time/programme for the laundry.
The laundry is full of different
coloured fluff:
The fabrics washed in the previous cycle released fluff of a different colour
(refer to “Fluff in the garments” in chapter ‘Use - Washing & Drying’).
• The drying phase helps to eliminate some fluff.
• Clean the clothes with a fluff remover.
In case of an excessive amount of fluff in the drum repeat the following pro-
cedure twice:
• Thoroughly clean the empty drum, the gasket and the door with a wet
rag.
• Perform a rinse cycle.
• Put a wool or piled fabric rag inside the drum.
• Perform a drying cycle of 10 minutes.
• Remove the old wool cloth.
Now you can wash other garments.
The machine makes an unusual
noise:
The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual 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.
