Possible Causes

Automatic load sensing adjusting time, Slow heating due to scaled heater, Slow drainage, Imbalance causing repeated spin attempts

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer before internal checks.

  • Understand auto-adjust: Many Hansa models adjust time based on load, water temperature, and balance. Slight variations are normal.
  • Check heater performance: If cycles are much longer, test and descale or replace the heater as needed.
  • Clean drain system: Ensure the pump filter and hose are clear so the machine can drain quickly.
  • Balance loads: Avoid small, heavy loads that cause repeated spin balancing attempts.
