Troubleshooting

4.1 The washing machine incorporates a
troubleshooting system that detects and
warns you of any type of incident. You
can display them on the screen.
4.1.1 Water does not enter the washing
machine. The warnings appear together
with possible solutions, which in this case
are three: Tap turned off? (4.1.2), water cut
off? (4.1.3) and house drainpipe? (4.1.4).
4.1.5 Does not empty the water. Check
the state of the filter and the drainpipe.
4.1.6 Very damp clothes. Select
programme 16.
4.1.7 Door open. Check that the hatch
is properly shut.
4.1.8 With any other warning. Call
customer service.
4.2 Loading door opening. In case of failure
or electricity cut, pull out the detergent
compartment by pulling the handle
outwards and press the blue lever down
(4.2.1). On the right side you will see a
button with a groove. Turn this button to
the left with the aid of a coin (4.2.2), and
the loading door will open (4.2.3).
4.3 Vibrations or noise. Check it has been
properly installed (points 1.1 and 1.4 of
this manual).
4.4 Water in the detergent compartment.
Check the detergent compartment is not

The environment
This washing machine has been designed
with environmental protection in mind.
Respect the environment. Always load the
washing machine to the maximum
recommended capacity for each
programme: this will save water and power.
Avoid the prewash whenever you can. Do
not use too much detergent. Only use the
extra rinse function for garments belonging
to people with sensitive skin.
Waste electrical and electronic equipment
management.
Do not dispose of these appliances together
with the general domestic waste.
Take your washing machine to a special
waste collection centre.
Recycling domestic appliances avoids
negative consequences for health and the
environment and saves power and natural
resources.
For further information, contact your local
authorities or the shop you purchased the
washing machine at.
