Laundry wet

Laundry not spun properly — Machine detected imbalance

Miele · W1 Washing Machines

What does Laundry wet mean?

At the end of the program, the laundry is still very wet, indicating it was not spun properly. The machine automatically reduced the spin speed due to an imbalance in the drum.

Common Causes

  • The machine detected an imbalance during the final spin.
  • The wash load may consist of items that clump together, preventing even distribution.
