Solution
• Check all pockets to make sure that they
are empty. Items such as clips, matches,
pens, coins, and keys can damage both
your washer and your clothes.
• Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings
to prevent these items from snagging or
tangling on other clothes.
• If sound continues, washing machine
is probably out of balance. Stop and
redistribute wash load.
• If not removed during installation, refer
to Installation guide for removing transit
bolts.
• Check that the appliance is perfectly level
(Use a spirit level).
• Check and tighten hose connections.
• Unclog drain pipe. Contact plumber if
necessary.
• Too much detergent or unsuitable
detergent may cause excessive foaming
which may result in water leaks.
• Check another tap in the house.
• Fully open tap.
• Straighten hose.
• Check the filter of the inlet hose.
• Clean and straighten the drain hose.
• Clean the drain filter.
