Troubleshooting
Washing machine does not start.
Check if the power cord is plugged in securely. Ensure the door is fully closed. Verify that the water tap is turned on. Check your home's circuit breaker.
Water not draining from the drum.
Ensure the drain hose is not kinked or blocked. Clean the drain pump filter at the bottom of the machine. Check if the household drain system is clear.
Excessive vibration or noise during spin cycle.
Make sure the machine is level on the floor. Check that all transit bolts have been removed (if newly installed). Ensure the load is balanced within the drum; redistribute if necessary.
Washing cycle not completing.
Check for error codes displayed on the control panel and consult the user manual. Ensure water supply is adequate and the drain system is functioning.
