Washing and washing result
Detergent residue in the detergent drawer:
Damp or clumpy detergent: Dry the detergent drawer
before adding detergent. Use dosing aids for compact or
liquid detergents. Add the detergent to the dosing aid
and put it in the drum with the laundry.
The divider for liquid detergent has been pressed down:
Move the divider to the position for powder detergent
Viscous conditioner will remain in the compartment
Remedy: Dilute the viscous conditioner with approx.
100ml water and fill it in the compartment
Attention: Do not exceed the mark «max». If required,
clean the conditioner compartment cover and the siphon
(see chapter «Cleaning and Maintenance»).
Water not visible during wash:
No error! The water is below the visible level in the
machine.
Laundry does not get clean:
Laundry was soiled more heavily than expected.
Stain removal before washing.
Select the maximum permitted temperature for the
fabric.
Select a stronger wash programme.
Dose detergent sufficiently according to the manufac-
turer's data.
Detergent residue on the washing:
This is not due to poor rinse performance of your
washing machine, but insoluble residues found in a few
phosphate-free detergents, which tend to be deposited
as pale specks on laundry.
Remedy: dry and brush off or repeat the whole rinse
process immediately. Use liquid detergent and wash
programmes with a higher water level (Easy care).
Activate the extra rinse function.
Grey residue (soap scum) on the washing:
The normal amount of detergent is not always suffi-
cient for soiling from ointments, fats or oils, increase the
amount for the next wash.
Remedy: select the maximum permitted temperature for
the fabrics.
Grey stains on the washing:
These stains may be caused by cosmetics or fabric
softener and may have appeared on the laundry outside
the machine before washing.
Remedy: some stains can be washed out after soaking in
liquid detergent.
The laundry is hard and/or like a board:
If the laundry is dried in the air after washing, use a
conditioner for the next wash. Or dry the laundry in a
tumble drier.
Drum and tank are dirty (e.g. scraps of paper,
oil):
Tissues or similar objects have not been removed from
the laundry before washing. Clean drum and tank with
the wash programme «Coloureds 60°C» (without laun-
dry and detergent, but with increased water level during
wash and rinse).

Laundry smells unpleasant (e.g. of sweat or
rottenness):
Laundry has been washed too long at only a low
temperature and contains too many odour-producing
germs. Wash laundry from time to time at 60°C and / or
the maximum admissible temperature, best with a gene-
ral-purpose detergent (with bleaching agent). For washing
at 20/30°C use a special detergent which is active at low
temperatures.
.
Odour accumulation in the machine:
. Odour-producing germs have accumulated in the
washing machine or in the drain. Remedy: Clean the
machine and drain from time to time by means of the
wash programme «Coloureds 60°C» (without laundry
and detergent, but with increased water level during
wash and rinse).
Laundry mats (pilling):
Delicates such as wool can mat due to the high
mechanical load. Use a gentle special programme in the
future suited for delicates.
Tear and hole formation, fibre wear of the
laundry:
Before washing remove foreign bodies from the
laundry.
Close zip fasteners and hooks before washing.
Wash delicate laundry in a laundry net.
Normal wear and/or mechanical damage of the tex-
tiles, which had already existed before washing.
Foam and leakage
Foam is visible after the last rinse:
Some detergents tend to produce more foam, which
does not affect the rinse results.
Too much foam is visible in the door glass
during washing, foam fills the entire drum:
Detergent dose too high. Too much foam deteriorates
the washing effect. Remedy: Mix approx. 20ml conditio-
ner with ½ liter water and add it into compartment II of
the detergent drawer. If required, repeat the process.
Reduce detergent dose in the future.
Foam leaks from the detergent drawer during
washing or rinsing:
Detergent dose too high. Remedy: Mix approx. 20ml
conditioner with ½ liter water and add it into compart-
ment II of the detergent drawer. If required, repeat the
process. Reduce detergent dose in the future.
Foam leaks from the detergent drawer during
spinning:
Foam leaks from the detergent drawer during spinning.
Interrupt programme by means of the «Quick Wash»
button. To eliminate this problem proceed as for the error
message «Water level too high».
In future, please reduce the detergent quantity
(if required use washing powder instead of liquid deter-
gent).
Machine leaks, puddles and/or water stains
form on the floor:
Detergent dose too high. Reduce detergent dose in
the future.
Check whether the supply and drain hose connections
are watertight and have been effected properly.
