The machine is vibrating excessively. What should I do?
Ensure the machine is level on a solid floor. Check that transport bolts are removed and anti-slip pads are used if needed. Avoid overloading and distribute laundry evenly.
How to activate child lock?
Press and hold the Child Lock button (usually a key symbol) for 3 seconds until the indicator lights. Repeat to deactivate.
What is the maximum load for a cotton program?
