a.

Fault in the water supply 

The appliance has no or 
insufficient water supply.
For models with a fault display, the 

“Tap Off”

 display lights up and the 

spin speed indication lights flash. If 
a digital display is fitted, “H” and 
“F” are also displayed alternately.
For models with no fault display, 
the washing machine stops in the 
appropriate programme step.
Switch the appliance off and pull 
out the mains plug.
Check whether:

the water tap is fully turned 
on, and the water supply 
pressure is sufficient

the water inlet hose is kinked

the water connection mesh 
filters are blocked (see “Care 
and Maintenance/Filters in 
water inlet hoses”)

the water supply hose is frozen 
up

the washing machine has a 
safety hose and the safety 
valve is open (red indicator in 
the safety valve inspection 
window); In this case replace it 
with a new safety hose

Reconnect the appliance to the 
electrical socket.

For models with a fault display, 
reselect the desired programme 
and start it.
For models without a fault 
display continue the programme 
by pressing the “On/Off” button 
again.
If the fault occurs again, please 
contact After Sales Service 
(see “After Sales Service”).

b.

Draining fault

Waste water not pumped out. 
For models with a fault display, the 
spin speed indication lights flash. If 
a digital display is fitted, “P” and 
“F” are also displayed alternately.
For models with no fault display, 
the washing machine stops in the 
appropriate programme step.
Switch the appliance off and pull 
out the mains plug.
Check whether:

the drain hose is kinked

The pump or the filter is 
blocked (see “Removing the

IMPORTANT:

 Before draining, 

make sure that the washing 
water has cooled down.

The water in the drain hose is 
frozen

Reconnect the appliance to the 
electrical socket.
For models with fault display, 
select and start the “Drain/

recommend a short programme 
without the addition of 
detergent.
For models without a fault 
display continue the programme 
by pressing the “On/Off” button 
again.
If the fault occurs again, please 
contact After Sales Service 
(see “After Sales Service”).

component
