TROUBLESHOOTING

ENGLISH

Odour

Staining

Bleach or softener was added directly to the clothes in the drum.

•  Always use the detergent dispenser to ensure that bleach or softener is 

properly dispensed at the right time in the programme.

Clothes were not properly sorted.

•  Always wash dark colours separately from light colours and whites to 

prevent discoloration.

•  Never wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled items.

Wrinkling

Appliance is not unloaded promptly.

•  Always remove items from the appliance as soon as the programme is 

complete.

Appliance is overloaded.

•  The appliance can be fully loaded, but the drum should not be tightly 

packed with items. The door of the appliance should be closed easily.

Hot and cold water supply hoses are reversed.

•  Hot water rinse can set wrinkles in garments. Check the supply hose 

connections.

Spin speed may be too high.

•  Set the spin speed to suit the garment type.

Symptoms

Possible Cause & Solution

Musty or mildewy 

odour in appliance

Inside of drum is not cleaned properly.

• Run the 

Tub Clean

 function regularly.

Odours can occur if the drain hose is not properly installed, causing 

siphoning (water flowing back inside of the appliance).

•  When installing the drain hose, make sure that it does not get kinked or 

blocked.

If the detergent dispenser is not cleaned regularly, odours can occur 

from mold or foreign substances.

•  Remove and clean the detergent dispenser, especially the top and bottom 

of the dispenser’s opening.
