What to do if…
Certain problems are due to lack of simple
maintenance or oversights, which can be solved
easily without calling out an engineer. Before
contacting your local Service Centre, please
carry out the checks listed below.
Important! if you call out an engineer to
a fault listed below, or to repair a fault
caused by incorrect use or installation, a
charge will be made even if the appliance
is under guarantee.
During machine operation it is possible that the
red Start/Pause pilot light flashes, one of the
following alarm codes appears on the display
and some acoustic signals sound to indicate that
the machine is not working:
•
E10: problem with the water supply
•
E20: problem with water draining
•
E40: door open
•
EFO: anti-flooding system activated
Once the problem has been eliminated, press
the button 6 to restart the programme. If after
all checks, the problem persists, contact your
local Service Force Centre.
