Washing takes longer than specified in the user
manual.(*)
• Water pressure might be low. >>> Since the amount of the
water has decreased, the machine will wait until it takes
adequate water to avoid poor washing quality. Therefore, the
washing time extends.
• Voltage might be low. >>> If the supply voltage is low, the
washing time is extended to prevent poor washing quality.
• Inlet temperature of water might be too low. >>> The time
required to heat up the water extends in cold seasons. Also,
washing time can be extended to avoid poor washing results.

water might have increased. >>> When a better rinsing
performance is needed, the machine increases the amount of
rinsing water, and adds another rinsing cycle, if necessary.

detergent, and the automatic foam absorption system might
have been activated. >>> Use the recommended amount of
detergent.

with display) (*)
• The timer may stop during water intake. >>> The timer
indicator will not count down until the machine takes in an
adequate amount of water. When the amount of the water
taken in decreases, the machine will wait until it takes in
enough water to avoid poor washing results. Timer indicator
will resume countdown after this.
• The timer indicator might stop during heating. >>> The timer
indicator will not count down until the machine reaches the
selected temperature.
• The timer indicator might stop during spinning. >>> The
