If the waterproof fault light comes on, turn machine off. Have something to mop up any water. Open the drain plug door, which is on the front bottom left hand side, and take out the drain plug. Then tilt machine forward as far as you can, excess water will come out of the drain plug and the bottom of the machine, but don't be alarmed. You may have to repeat this a couple of times and wipe round the drain plug to make sure it's dry. Hopefully the machine should now work. The reason for this is because there is a sensor in the bottom of the machine which may have detected excess water.
