Problems Causes
The washing machine
doesn’t rinse or doesn’t
empty : • the drain hose is blocked or bent,
• the drainage filter is obstructed,
• the out of balance detector has been activated : washing is unevenly distrib-
uted in the drum,
• the “Drain” programme or “Night Silence Plus” or “Rinse hold” option have
been selected,
• the height of the drainage U-piece is unsuitable.
You have found water
around the washing ma-
chine : • too much detergent has caused foam to overflow,
• the detergent is unsuitable for machine washing,
• the drainage U-piece isn’t attached correctly,
• the drainage filter hasn’t been put back in place,
• the water inlet hose is leaking.
Wash is unsatisfactory : • the detergent is unsuitable for machine washing,
• there is too much washing in the drum,
• the wash cycle is unsuitable,
• there isn’t enough detergent.
The appliance vibrates, is
noisy : • all packaging have not been removed from the appliance (see installation
section),
• the appliance isn’t level and is unbalanced,
• the appliance is too close to the wall or furniture,
• washing is unevenly distributed in the drum,

The wash cycle is much
too long : • the water inlet filters are dirty,

• the motor overheating detector has been activated,
• the water inlet temperature is lower than usual,
• the foam detection security system has been activated (too much detergent)
and the washing machine has begun draining the foam,

added to distribute washing more evenly in the drum.

cle : • the water or electricity supply is defective,
