Something Not Working
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 Force 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 one of the following alarm codes appears on the display and at the same
time the buzzer sounds:
-
EE1100
: problem with the water supply
-
EE2200
: problem with water draining
-
EE4400
: door open
Once the problem has been eliminated, press the “Start/Pause “button to restart the programme. If after all checks, the
problem persists, contact your local Service Force Centre.
