Check that the programme selector dial is positioned correctly and the ON/OFF button depressed. Check that the water tap is open. Check that water is coming out of the tap. Check that the inlet hose is not squashed or kinked. Check that the filter in the inlet hose is not blocked. Check that the door is closed. The end of the drain hose is too low. Refer to relevant paragraph in �water drainage� section. Check that the drain hose is not squashed or kinked. The drain filter is blocked. Clean it. A gentle programme which ends with water in the drum or option has been selected. Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent (creates too much foam) has been used. Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet hose fittings. It is not always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose; check to see if it is damp. Check that the drain hose is not damaged. Check that the drain filter has been refitted correctly after cleaning. Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used. Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing. The correct temperature or programme was not selected.
