the end of the programme, only the “End” indicator
is still on.

lamp lights up to show that the door cannot be
opened. When the lamp goes off, the door can be
opened again.
If “Start” has been pressed, but the door is not
latched, the “Door Locked” indicator flashes for 10
seconds. The door must be pushed shut within this

indicator goes out and the “Start” button flashes.
The door must then be opened and closed again and
the “Start” button must be pressed.
“TROUBLE” INDICATORS

Waste water is not pumped out. Check wether the
drain hose is kinked or the filter must be cleaned; in
the latter case refer to the Instructions for Use
(“Removing the Filter”).
“Water Tap”
The appliance has no or insufficient water supply.
Open the water tap; if the indication still lights up,
refer to the “Troubleshooting Guide” in the
Instructions for Use.
PROGRAMME END

1. Set the programme selector knob to the
“Off” position.
2. Turn off the tap.
3. Open the door and unload the machine.
