Indicator '---' on display for program duration + 'I' indicator flashes

Indicator '---' for duration and flashing 'I' — Load detection in progress

Electrolux · Washing Machines

What does Indicator '---' on display for program duration + 'I' indicator flashes mean?

When the Start/Pause button is pressed, the appliance begins the ProSense load detection. During this process, the programme duration may show as '---', and the 'I' indicator will flash as the drum rotates briefly to measure the load.

Common Causes

  • The washing machine is measuring the weight and size of the laundry load.
  • The ProSense system is calibrating the programme duration based on the load.
