Page 18 of 22

The diagnostic tests must be performed on the machine without a wash load because the out of balance detection system is disabled. Set the cycle selector to "DRAIN" and wait for the time display to indicate "0:02". Press the : a) "RINSE HOLD" button twice b) "INTENSIVE RINSE" button twice c) "START" button once, The control panel will now display : · Temperature 60°C (Does not change for duration of the test sequence). · 1400 speed LED on (Does not change for duration of the test sequence). · "PREWASH" programme sequence LED on · "WASH" programme sequence LED on · "RINSE" programme sequence LED on · "RINSE HOLD" programme sequence LED on · "SPIN" programme sequence LED on - (This is Step 1 in the Table over) Drain pump runs for approximately six seconds and the test sequence automatically advances to Step 2. By pressing the Prewash button once, the timer advances to step 3.

5. 6.

Notes: Each step of the test can be advanced by pressing the button in the next line of the "Advance to step by pressing :" column in the table over once without waiting for the step to complete. e.g. When the machine starts to fill in Step 2, the "Prewash" button can be pressed once to advance to Step 3 without the 60 second fill to complete.

Note 1 Unless indicated by "Advances automatically", the test cycle can only be advanced by pressing the appropriate button once within five minutes, otherwise the machine will pump out and a false fault will be indicated. Note 2. This part of the test sequence can be terminated after the fill by reducing the temperature setting to 20°C but the NTC will not be checked for accuracy. Note 3. The Aquastop lamp will illuminate during Step 3 only. If a failure is detected during the test sequence the timer will : 1. initiate the safety step routine : A. Drain pump runs until pressure switch resets plus 30 seconds. I. II. III. 2. Main motor is turned off. Water inlet valves are turned off. Element is turned off
