• Unevenly distributed laundry or lumps of laundry in the washing machine drum can cause problems such as vibration and noisy operation.
• The washing machine detects such problems and the UKS* (*stability control system) will be activated.
• Smaller loads (e.g. one towel, one sweater, one bathrobe etc.) or clothes made of materials with special geometrical properties are virtually impossible to distribute evenly across the washing machine drum (slippers, large items etc.). This results in several attempts to redistribute the laundry, which in turn leads to longer programme duration. In extreme cases of unfavourable conditions, the programme can be completed without the spinning cycle.
• The UKS* (*stability control system) allows stable operation and a longer useful life of the washing machine.

If the problems persist despite observing the advice above, call an authorised service technician. Repairs or warranty claims resulting from incorrect connection or use of the washing machine shall not be covered by the warranty. In this case, the user will cover the cost of repair.
