Too much foam.
Is the detergent appropriate
for machine washing?
Check whether the definition
on its label reads “for machine
wash” or “hand and machine
wash”, or any other similar
wording.
Is the correct amount being
used? An excessive amount
of detergent, besides
producing too much foam,
does not guarantee a more
effective wash, and causes
scaling in the internal parts of
the appliance.
The washer-dryer does
not dry.
Check whether:
the plug has been correctly
inserted into the socket; there
is electricity in your home; the
appliance door has been shut
properly; a delayed start (if
available) has not been
selected;
the drying mode has
been selected.
The washer-dryer doesn't
dry properly.
Check whether:
the end of the drain hose is
underwater; the drain pump is
obstructed; the advice given
on the maximum loads has
been taken; the water tap has
been turned on.
If, despite all checks, the
washer-dryer fails to function
and the problem persists, call
your nearest authorised
Customer Service Centre,
providing the following
information:
- the nature of malfunction
- the model type no. (Mod. ....)
- the serial number (S/N ....)
This information can be found on
the data plate situated at the
back of the washer-dryer.
Is there space between the
machine and adjacent
units? If it is not a built-in
model, the washer-dryer will
oscillate a bit during the spin
cycle. A few cm of space
should therefore be left
around it.
The washer-dryer leaks.
Is the metal ring of the inlet
hose properly attached?
Turn off the water supply,
unplug the appliance and try
tightening its attachment
without forcing it.
Is the detergent dispenser
obstructed? Remove and
wash it under tap water.
Is the drain hose well
attached? Turn off the water
supply, unplug the appliance
and try tightening its
attachment.
Is the drain hose kinked?
The tract of the drain hose
must be as straight as
possible. Make sure the drain
hose is not squashed or
kinked.
Is the washer-dryer’s drain
duct clogged? Is there an
extension of the drain hose?
If so, is it positioned
incorrectly, blocking the
water flow?
Excessive vibration
during the spin cycle.
Have all transit screws been
removed during instal-
lation? See the following
page on installation
procedures.
Has the washer-dryer been
levelled correctly? The
levelling of the appliance
should be checked
periodically. Adjust the feet
and check them with a level.
The washer-dryer does
not drain or spin.
Does the selected
programme incorporates
water draining? Some
programmes stop at the end
of the wash cycles and
draining will have to be
selected manually.
Is the “Easy ironing"
function -where provided -
selected? Complete the
programme by pressing the
select button.
Is the drain pump clogged?
To check it, turn off the water
supply, unplug the washer-
dryer and follow the
instructions on page 13, or
call for technical assistance.
