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.
