WHT814EIN - Washing machine SMEG - Free user manual and instructions

If water is not draining properly from your SMEG WHT814EIN washing machine, several causes may be behind this issue. Here are the steps to follow to identify and resolve this situation:

1. Check and clean the drain filter

The filter may be clogged with debris, lint, or small objects. To clean it:

• Unplug the machine.
• Locate the filter (usually at the bottom front of the machine).
• Open the compartment, remove the filter, and clean it thoroughly under water.
• Replace the filter correctly.

2. Check the drain hose

A bent, twisted, or clogged hose prevents water from draining:

• Check that the hose is not crushed or bent.
• Disconnect it and ensure it is free of any obstruction.
• Reconnect it properly, making sure it is securely attached.

3. Test the drain pump

The pump may be defective:

• Start a drain cycle and listen to see if the pump is working (motor noise).
• If the pump does not run, it may be blocked or damaged.
• In this case, technical assistance may be necessary.

4. Check the water level and sensors

A problem with the water level sensor may prevent drainage:

• If the machine remains full of water, this may indicate a malfunction of the sensor.
• This issue often requires professional intervention.

5. Restart the machine

Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve a temporary issue:

• Turn off the machine.
• Wait a few minutes.
• Turn it back on and restart a cycle.

By following these steps, you can often resolve the water drainage issue. If the problem persists, it is recommended to contact a qualified technician for further assistance.

If the button on your SMEG WHT814EIN remains lit and does not deactivate, it may indicate a malfunction or a system lock. Here are some steps to follow to try to resolve this issue:

1. Check the power supply

Make sure the appliance is properly plugged in and powered. A power cut or electrical instability may prevent the button from deactivating.

2. Restart the appliance

• Turn off the appliance.
• Unplug it from the electrical outlet for at least 5 minutes.
• Plug it back in and turn it on to see if the button deactivates.

3. Check the indicators and error codes

Observe if other indicators are flashing or if an error code appears. These indications may point to a specific cause of the problem.

4. Check the locking mechanism

The button may remain active if the door lock is stuck or not properly engaged. Ensure that the door is securely closed and that the mechanism is not obstructed.

5. Contact a professional if necessary

If after these checks the button still does not deactivate, it is advisable to call a qualified technician for a thorough diagnosis and appropriate repair.

The white light on your SMEG WHT814EIN dishwasher is the door lock indicator. When this light is on, it means that the loading door is locked and you should not open it.

When the lock is active: This mechanism automatically engages during the program operation, when the water level is inappropriate or incompatible with opening. The lock prevents any water leakage or risk of scalding from hot water that could occur if the door were opened during the cycle.

How to safely open the door: Wait a few minutes after the washing program has completely finished. The lock indicator will turn off by itself, indicating that the safety system has released the door. You can then normally open the door.

Important: Never force the door open when the lock indicator is on. Forcing the door open could permanently damage the door and the safety lock mechanism.

If your SMEG WHT814EIN dishwasher is experiencing a water filling issue, here are several steps to follow to identify and resolve the problem:

1. Check the water supply

• Make sure that the water tap supplying the dishwasher is fully open.
• Check that the water supply hose is not bent, twisted, or blocked.

2. Clean the inlet hose filter

A filter located at the entrance of the water supply hose may be clogged. Carefully remove it and clean it under a stream of water to ensure proper flow.

3. Check the water pressure

Insufficient water pressure can prevent the dishwasher from filling correctly. Check that the pressure is adequate at the supply tap.

4. Restart the appliance

After performing these checks, turn off and then turn on your dishwasher to reset the sensors and the filling system.

If the problem persists despite these checks, it may be an internal malfunction requiring the intervention of a specialized technician.
