Why is my Ariston machine over filling with water?

REF : Ariston margherita A1535. The machine briefly seems to wash and then fills with cold water as if to rinse but doesn't empty the dirty water out. When I say overfills, it fills the drum and the drum keeps going round but the dial stays where it is. We are having to fool it to empty the water out of the drum by reseting the cycle to empty and spin. Once we have done this, the water empties out fine and the drum will spin. This happens on all programs.
