What to do if my Defy DTL148 Washer won't start?
If your Defy Washer isn't starting, make sure the lid is closed properly. Check if the Pause button is activated and, if so, press the START/PAUSE button again. Also, check if the water has filled to the appropriate level; low water pressure could delay the start. Ensure that the water supply tap is fully open.
What to do if my Defy Washer won't drain?
If your Defy Washer isn't draining, verify that the drain hose isn't positioned higher than 100 cm. Inspect the drain hose for any kinks or obstructions. Also, check the water outlet for any clogs that may be preventing drainage.
What to do if my Defy DTL148 won't spin?
If your Defy Washer isn't spinning, make sure the laundry is evenly distributed inside and not clumped to one side. Also, check that the washer is placed on a level surface. Ensure that the washer lid is completely closed and not obstructed.
Why is my Defy Washer spinning so loudly and vibrating?
Loud noises and vibrations during spinning in your Defy Washer can occur if the laundry is not spread evenly; redistribute the laundry. Ensure the washing machine is on a sturdy, level floor, adjusting the legs if necessary. Also, check for and remove any objects around the washing machine that may be causing the issue.
How to fix a Defy DTL148 Washer that is not supplying water?
If your Defy Washer isn't supplying water, first ensure you've pressed the Start/Pause button after selecting the water supply. Check that the water supply tap is open. Inspect the filter net at the water supply hose connector for clogs and clean it with a toothbrush if necessary. Also, make sure the water supply isn't cut off and that the water pressure isn't too low.
What to do if my Defy DTL148 has no power?
If your Defy Washer has no power, check for a general power failure in your home. Inspect the fuse box for blown fuses or tripped circuit breakers. Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into the outlet.
What to do if my Defy DTL148 Washer drain hose is frozen?
If the drain hose and spin basket of your Defy Washer are frozen, add hot water to the frozen water tap and remove the drain hose to soak it in hot water. Pour hot water into the spin basket and let it sit for about 10 minutes. Place a hot water towel on the drain hose connector. Once the drain hose defrosts, reconnect it to ensure proper water draining.
Why does water immediately drain from my Defy DTL148 Washer?
If water drains immediately from your Defy Washer, it might be because the drain is clogged with items like coins or pins. Also, ensure that the drain hose is positioned no lower than 65 cm. Try filling the spin basket halfway with water and attempt spinning again.
