ISSUE:

Washing machine does not work / does not react
No reaction for switch ON/OFF button
Abnormal work of the appliance

APPLIES TO:

Washing machine / washer dryer with electronic control

RESOLUTION:

1. Remove the plug from the electrical outlet.

2. Plug another device (ex. hair dryer / iron) to the electrical outlet and switch ON (this test is to check if there is no problem with electrical outlet).

If another appliance would switch ON, it means that there is no problem with the power outlet.

If another appliance would not switch ON, it means that there is a problem with the power outlet.

3. In case of no problem with power outlet (point 2.A) leave the problematic appliance for 15 min unplugged then plug it in again, if still not working contact Authorized Service Center.

4. In case of faulty power outlet (point 2.B) contact the local electrician.

CAUSE:

In some specific cases caused by interferences in power supply, electronic devices can stop to work normally or even not react to ON/OFF button
