AUTOMATIC SAFETY FUNCTIONS / FAULTS

This washing machine is equipped with automatic safety functions which detect and diagnose faults at
an early stage and react appropriately. Often, however, the faults detected are small enough to be
solved in a matter of minutes. For example:

• The washing machine will not start.

• The additive products are not being fully washed out of the detergent dispenser.

• The washing machine is unstable during the spin cycle.

• The washing machine does not spin at the end of the programme.

Information about the above problem can be found in the “Troubleshooting Guide”.

What should I do when the automatic safety detects a malfunction?

The programme is interrupted and the fault is indicated as follows:
