Ariston Washer-Dryers

12 fault codes documented

Continuous fill and drain

Washer-dryer continuously takes in and drains water

The appliance repeatedly fills with water and then drains it immediately without completing a wash cycle. This often indicates problems with the drainage system's installation.

Cycle not starting

Wash cycle does not start

After selecting a wash cycle, the machine does not begin operation. This could be due to an open door, an unpressed start button, or a water supply issue.

Excessive foam

Too much foam in the washer-dryer

Excessive foam is present during the wash cycle. This indicates an issue with the type or quantity of detergent used, which can affect washing performance.

Excessive vibration

Washer-dryer vibrates excessively during spin cycle

The appliance shakes and vibrates significantly, especially during the spin cycle. This typically indicates improper installation or an unevenly leveled machine.

F-xx Error

Error F-XX appears on display - Option and START/PAUSE lights flash rapidly

The display shows an error code starting with 'F-' (e.g., F-01). Simultaneously, the 'option' and START/PAUSE indicator lights flash rapidly. This indicates an internal appliance malfunction.

H2O flashes

H2O flashes on display - Washer-dryer does not fill with water

The display shows 'H2O' flashing, indicating that the washer-dryer is not filling with water. This can be caused by issues with the water supply hose, tap, or water pressure.

Incompatible options

Multiple option lights flash - Selected options are not compatible

When selecting a second option, the indicator light for the previously selected option flashes. Only the second option will activate, and its indicator light will stay on, meaning the two options are mutually exclusive.

No drain or spin

Washer-dryer does not drain or spin

The machine completes the wash cycle but fails to drain the water or spin the laundry, leaving the clothes wet. This can be due to cycle settings or a blocked drain.

No drying

Washer-dryer does not dry

The drying cycle does not function, and laundry remains wet. This can be due to power issues, an open door, or incorrect drying settings.

No Power

Washer-dryer does not switch on

The appliance does not turn on when the ON/OFF button is pressed. This can be due to power issues or the machine not being properly connected.

Option light flashes

Option indicator light flashes - Selected option not compatible

The indicator light for a selected option flashes, and the option does not activate. This happens when the chosen option is not compatible with the current wash cycle.

Water leakage

Washer-dryer leaks water

Water is leaking from the washer-dryer, indicating a potential connection issue, a blocked component, or a loose hose.
