Troubleshooting

The washing machine won't turn on.

Check if the power cord is securely plugged into the outlet and that the outlet is working. Also, make sure the machine's power button is switched on.

The washing machine is not filling with water.

Ensure the water supply tap is fully open and that there are no kinks in the water inlet hose. Check that water pressure is sufficient.

The washing machine is leaking water.

Check the water inlet and drain hoses for leaks and ensure they are properly connected. Inspect the door seal for damage.

The washing machine is making excessive noise.

Make sure the machine is level. Check for any items (like coins or small objects) trapped in the drum. Overloading the machine can also increase noise.

Clothes are not clean after washing.

Make sure you are using the correct detergent and the correct amount for your load size. Check the water temperature setting and the selected wash program. Clean the filter.

The washing machine won't drain.

Check the drain hose for any blockages and ensure it's not positioned too low. Clean the drain pump filter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  • Ensure the electrical outlet meets the voltage requirements (220-240V, 50 Hz).
  • Use appropriate washing detergents suitable for your fabric types and the washing programs selected.

Care

  • Cleaning: Regularly clean the detergent dispenser, door seal, and drum to prevent buildup of residue and mold. Use a damp cloth for cleaning the exterior.
  • Maintenance: Run a hot wash cycle (e.g., Cotton program at 90°C) occasionally with a washing machine cleaner to prevent limescale buildup.
  • Filter: Clean the drain pump filter regularly (every few months) to prevent blockages. This filter is usually located at the bottom front of the machine.
