Option indicator flashes and 3 beeps

Option indicator flashes and 3 beeps — Selected option conflicts with previous selection

Indesit · Washing Machines

What does Option indicator flashes and 3 beeps mean?

If you try to select a new option that conflicts with one already chosen, its indicator light will flash and you will hear three beeps. Only the most recently selected and compatible option will activate; its light will then turn steady.

Common Causes

  • You have attempted to select a second option that cannot be active at the same time as a previously chosen one.
  • Two selected options are mutually exclusive (e.g., selecting both 'Intensive Rinse' and 'Quick Wash').
