Possible Causes
Overloaded drum, Bulky items causing imbalance, Worn suspension rods or dampers, Faulty balance sensor
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Do not bypass safety features. Unplug the unit before inspecting internal suspension components.
Steps:
- Redistribute load: Open the door and remove some items if the drum is tightly packed. Separate heavy items (blankets, towels) and restart a spin cycle.
- Level the unit: Use a bubble level to check that the Café combo is level front-to-back and side-to-side. Adjust the leveling feet and lock them in place.
- Check for excessive movement: During spin, observe the unit. If it shakes violently even with a balanced load, the suspension rods or dampers may be worn.
When to call a technician: Replacing suspension components or diagnosing a faulty balance sensor is best handled by an authorized service technician.
