Electrolux EWS 12971 W, User Manual

Problem

Possible cause/Solution

Spinning starts late or the
machine does not spin:

The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the
laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redis-
tributed by reverse rotation of the drum. This may happen several
times before the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can re-
sume. If, after 10 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed
in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case, redistribute the
load manually and select the spin programme.
• Redistribute the laundry.
The load is too small.
• Add more items, redistribute the load manually and then select

the spinning programme.

The machine makes an un-
usual noise:

The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual
noise compared with other traditional motors. This new motor en-
sures a softer start and more even distribution of the laundry in the
drum when spinning, as well as increased stability of the machine.

No water is visible in the
drum:

Machines based on modern technology operate very economically
using very little water without affecting performance.

If you are unable to identify or solve the prob-
lem, contact our service centre. Before tele-
phoning, make a note of the model, serial
number and purchase date of your machine:
the Service Centre will require this informa-
tion.
