6. Тэхнічнае абслугоўванне

To prolong the life of your pressure sensor and prevent common issues:

• Use Correct Detergent: Always use High-Efficiency (HE) detergent in HE washers and avoid using excessive amounts. Over-sudsing can lead to pressure sensor malfunctions and error codes like F35.
• Inspect Pressure Hose: Periodically check the pressure hose connected to the sensor for kinks, blockages, or damage. A clear hose is essential for accurate water level detection.
• Keep Drain Clear: Ensure the washer's drain pump filter and drain hose are free from obstructions to prevent 'long drain' errors (e.g., F21) which can sometimes be misdiagnosed or exacerbated by sensor issues.

7. Выпраўленне непаладак

If your washer displays error codes or exhibits water level issues after sensor replacement, consider the following:

• F21 Error (Long Drain): While often related to drain pump issues, a faulty pressure sensor can contribute. Ensure the new sensor is correctly installed and its hose is clear.
• F35 Error (Pressure Sensor Fault/Over-sudsing): This code directly indicates a problem with the pressure sensor or excessive suds. Verify the sensor connections and ensure you are using the correct type and amount of detergent.
• Incorrect Water Levels: If the washer consistently overfills or underfills, recheck the sensor installation and hose connection.
