Investigating malfunctions
What might be the cause of…
Defects you can remedy yourself
MALFUNCTION CAUSE REMEDY
The machine makes a
different noise when
spinning! This is because it
has a brush motor for better
performance. Only a small level of water can be
seen in the drum! This is because
new machines do not use much
water, yet achieve the same standard
of washing and rinsing.

Note:
The use of environmentally-friendly, phosphate-free detergents can have the following effects:
-
waste water from rinsing may be cloudier because of the presence of zeolites held in
suspension, without the rinse performance being adversely affected;
- presence of white powder (zeolites) on laundry after washing, which is not absorbed by
the fabric and does not alter the colour of the fabric.
- The presence of foam in the final rinsing water is not necessarily an indication of poor
rinsing.
- Anionic surfactants used in washing detergent formulae often prove to be difficult to
remove from the laundry itself and, even in small quantities, can still cause considerable
foam production.
- Carrying out more rinse cycles does not serve any purpose in such cases.
