Hi Team,

My washing machine (IQdrive 500) will not spin if it is loaded with a (one) pullover (say: a hoodie). If there are say 5 shirts, or 2 jeans then it does spin properly, but the pullovers come out soaking wet after spin (and it is clear that it does not do it: it only slowly working away…).

Any ideas how to fix that?
Thanks
Tamas

Hi Team,

There’s a lock message on my Simmons IQ500 machine which someone pressed some wrong buttons at home. I suppose this is the child lock? Is there any way to remove the child lock?

thanks,
lina

  Hi Lina, you’re right, it’s a child lock.
  
  You can lock the washing machine to prevent the functions you have set from being changed inadvertently. To do this, activate the childproof lock.
  
  To activate/deactivate, press and hold the Finish in- and + buttons at the same time for approx. three seconds.
