When I start the machine, the programme light flashes and the end light flashes 3 times. According to the manual this means that "protection against flooding is active". There's no sign of flooding and everything else seems OK, so can anyone advise me please how to reset/fix it.

Thanks, Richard

It means there is water in the base.tip the machine on its back to drain water out of the base which will reset the antiflood device.if it floods again you have a leak and will need to find out where from!
