Troubleshooting Guide (valid for all �LCD Intelligent Dialogue WAL.....� models)
Depending on the model, your washing machine is equipped with various automatic safety functions. This enables faults to be detected in good time and the safety system can react appropriately. These faults are frequently so minor that they can be removed within a few minutes. � 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. Switch the washing machine on and restart the desired programme (do not add any more detergent).

Final spin results are poor:
Check whether the notice �Load Imbalance!� or �Excessive Foam!� appears on the display. The washing machine has an unbalance detection and correction system. If individual heavy items are loaded (e.g. a bathmat or bathrobe), this system may reduce the spin speed automatically or even interrupt the spin completely if it detects too great an imbalance even after several spin starts, in order to protect the washing machine � if the laundry is still too wet at the end of the cycle, add smaller articles of laundry and repeat the spin cycle � excessive foam formation may prevent spinning. Observe correct detergent dosages Check whether: � spin speed �0� has been selected
