One reason for such a pause can be that you might have used too much detergent; the washing machine automatically interrupts the programme to have the foam reduced. This standstill may be repeated several times until the foam reduction is sufficient to continue the wash cycle.
Failure Indicator What to do Water tap closed Appliance has no or insufficient water supply. The “Start/Pause” light blinks. Check whether: › Water tap is fully open and water supply pressure is sufficient. › Kinks are present in the water inlet hose. › Mesh filter of water supply hose is blocked (see “Cleaning And Maintenance”. › The water hose is frozen up.
