If you notice this problem, shake or brush the

manufacturer's instructions
- half load: 3/4 the amount used for a full

Notes:

This washing machine is equipped with automatic
safety functions which detect and diagnose faults
at an early stage and react appropriately.
Often, however, the faults detected are small
enough to be solved in a matter of minutes.
For example:
The machine will not start:
Check whether:
e the appliance is plugged in;
e the wall socket is functioning correctly
(use a table lamp or similar);
e the appliance door is properly closed
(child safety);
¢ aprogramme has been selected;
e “Start” has been pressed for 1 second
(the lamp should light up and stop flashing).
The additive product is not being fully
washed out of the detergent dispenser:
Check whether:
e the siphon is correctly installed and not
blocked (see "Care and Maintenance /
detergent dispenser");
® enough water is being supplied. The mesh
filter in the water hose could be blocked or
dirty. See "Care and Maintenance / Water
