If a fault occurs, before contacting the After-sales Service, make the following checks to try and remedy
the problem. Most faults can be remedied by taking the following courses of action, quickly restoring
normal appliance operation.
After taking the above course of action, the fault message must be reset. In the majority of
cases the fault is thus eliminated.
RESET:
• Press the START button for approx. 2 seconds until the indicator lamp switches off or press the RESET
button (depending on model).
• Close the door.
• Water drains automatically for up to 60 seconds.
• The appliance is now ready to be restarted.
