Symptom

The door will not open

Possible causes

The water level is above the bottom edge of the door.

The machine is heating the water.

The drum is turning.

In any case the door can be opened only when the door locked
light has gone out.

Spinning starts late or the
machine does not spin

The electronic balance control 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 few
minutes, the laundry 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.

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.
