Load detection is active.
Not a fault – no action required.
▶
Note: The load detection can take up to two minutes.
Detergent dosage is too high.
Immediate measure: Mix one tablespoon of fabric
▶
softener with 0.5 litres of water and pour the mix-
ture into compartment II (not for outdoor clothing,
sportswear or items stuffed with down).
Reduce the amount of detergent for the next wash-
▶
ing cycle with the same load.
A low spin speed is selected.
The next time you run a wash cycle, set a higher
▶
spin speed.
Unbalance load detection system is using a reduced
spin speed to eliminate an unbalance.
Redistribute the laundry in the drum.
▶
Note: Where possible, mix large and small items in
the drum. Different sized items of laundry distribute
themselves better during the spin cycle.
Start the Schleudern programme.
▶
Drain pipe or water outlet hose is blocked.
Clean the drain pipe and the water outlet hose.
▶
Drain pipe or water drain hose is caught or jammed.
Ensure that the drain pipe and water drain hose are
▶
not kinked or trapped.
The unbalanced load detection system has interrupted
the spin cycle because the laundry is unevenly distrib-
uted.
Redistribute the laundry in the drum.

Note: Where possible, mix large and small items in
the drum. Different sized items of laundry distribute
themselves better during the spin cycle.
