  Jillian ButlerAug 14, 2025
  Your Gorenje Washer/Dryer might not start due to several reasons: it is not plugged in (insert the plug into the socket), your fuse is defective (change your fuse), the mains supply is cut off (check the mains supply), the Start/Pause button is not pressed (press the Start/Pause button), the programme knob is in the stop (off) position (bring the programme knob to the desired position), or the door is not closed properly (close the door).

What to do if my Gorenje Washer/Dryer has excessive foam in the detergent drawer?
- S
  Sarah MorenoAug 18, 2025
  If you observe excessive foam in the detergent drawer of your Gorenje Washer/Dryer, it's likely due to using too much detergent or using the wrong type. To address this, press the Start/Pause button. Mix a spoon of softener with half a litre of water and pour it into the detergent drawer. After 5-10 minutes, press the Start/Pause button again. Ensure you only use detergents specifically designed for automatic washing machines and adjust the detergent dose accordingly for future washes.

Why is no water entering my Gorenje WD73121 Washer/Dryer?
- T
  Terry JohnsonAug 21, 2025
  If no water is entering your Gorenje Washer/Dryer, the tap might be closed (open the tap). Also, the water inlet hose may be twisted or blocked, so check the water inlet hose and clean the water inlet hose filters. Another possible cause is a blocked valve inlet filter (clean the valve inlet filters), or the door of your machine is not closed properly (close the door).

What to do if Gorenje WD73121 Washer/Dryer laundry has detergent residues on it?
- Q
  qsandersAug 25, 2025
  If your laundry from the Gorenje Washer/Dryer has detergent residues, it may be due to non-dissolving particles of some detergents adhering to your laundry as white spots (perform an extra rinse by setting your machine to the 'Rinsing' programme, or clean the spots using a brush after your laundry dries). Another reason for these spots may be oil, cream or ointment (apply the maximum amount of detergent instructed by the detergent manufacturer in the next washing operation).

Why is my Gorenje WD73121 vibrating so much?
- W
  wbraunAug 27, 2025
  If your Gorenje Washer/Dryer is vibrating excessively, it could be due to several reasons: the machine’s feet are not adjusted (adjust the feet), transportation safety screws are not removed (remove the transportation safety screws). It might also be due to a small amount of laundry inside, or the machine is overloaded, or the laundry is not distributed evenly (do not put more laundry in than the amount recommended and make sure it is loaded evenly). Another reason can be a hard surface, so avoid installing your machine on hard surfaces and leave 2 cm of space between it and walls or hard surfaces.

Why Gorenje Washer/Dryer spinning operation is not performed?
- W
  William LangAug 31, 2025
  If the spinning operation is not performed or runs late on your Gorenje Washer/Dryer, it is likely not a fault. The unbalanced load control system has been activated. The system will try to spread your laundry evenly, and the spinning operation will begin after your laundry is spread. Place the laundry in the machine in a balanced fashion next time.

What causes an unsatisfactory washing result in my Gorenje WD73121?
- F
  fergusonbrandonSep 3, 2025
  An unsatisfactory washing result with your Gorenje Washer/Dryer can occur if the contamination degree of your laundry does not match the programme you have chosen (select programmes appropriate for your laundry’s level of dirtiness). It can also be caused by an insufficient amount of detergent used (adjust the amount of detergent according to the amount and level of dirtiness of your laundry), or if your machine has more than the maximum capacity laundry inside (load your machine with an amount of laundry that does not exceed the maximum laundry capacity).

- H
  haysdanielSep 6, 2025
  If your Gorenje Washer/Dryer does not discharge water, the discharging hose might be clogged or twisted (check the discharging hose). Another possible cause is a clogged pump filter (clean the pump filter).

Why is laundry still damp after drying in my Gorenje Washer/Dryer?
- A
  Ashley MurphySep 10, 2025
  If laundry remains damp after the drying operation in your Gorenje Washer/Dryer, it may be because the appropriate drying programme is not selected or the maximum load capacity for the selected programme might be exceeded. Select a drying programme appropriate for your laundry.
