How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance and be prepared for water when opening the pump filter.

  • Clean pump filter: Open the service flap and remove the pump filter. Clear any lint or debris.
  • Check drain hose: Ensure the hose is not kinked and is installed at the correct height. Flush with water if necessary.
  • Run spin-only: Try a spin-only program with a smaller, well-distributed load.
  • Inspect drive belt: Remove the rear panel and check the belt for looseness or glazing. Replace if worn.
  • Suspension check: If the machine vibrates heavily, repair suspension components to allow full spin speed.
