Something not working
Please carry out the following checks before contacting your local Service Force agent.
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 red pilot light of the button
10 flashes, one of the following
alarm codes appears on the display and some acoustic signals sound to indicate that the machine is not
working:
-
E10 : problem with the water supply
- E20 : problem with water draining
- E40 : door open
- EF0 : Anti-flooding system has activated
Once the problem has been eliminated, press the button 10 to restart the programme. If after all checks, the
problem persists, contact your local Service Force Centre.
