Troubleshooting and error codes

Fault Cause Remedial action
The washing has not been spun correctly. Large laundry items have become entangled and are not evenly distributed in the drum. For safety reasons, the high-speed final spin cycle was automatically cancelled. Always load large and small items together into the drum. (see also imbalance compensation system).
Spin result unsatisfactory. The Single rinse or Single spin programme selected maximum spin speed: see page 18. See page 18.
Spin cycle actuated several times. Not a fault. Unbalanced load detection system is attempting to compensate the imbalance by spinning the washing several times. Wash large and small items together in order to reduce the imbalance.
The programme takes longer than usual. Not a fault. Imbalance compensation system attempts to balance the laundry by repeated distribution. The foam detection feature has activated an additional rinsing cycle to reduce the amount of foam. Adjust the detergent dosage for the next wash cycle.
Washing result not satisfactory. Soiling is greater than expected or recommended load has been exceeded. Detergent was underdosed. Select suitable programme and press the Intensive Wash button or reduce load. Dose detergent according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Detergent residue on the washing. Some phosphate-free detergents contain water-insoluble residue which may appear as light stains on the washing. Select Single rinse immediately or brush out the washing after drying.
Grey residue on the washing. Soiling caused by ointment, grease or oil. Select maximum detergent dosage and maximum permitted temperature for the next wash cycle.
