Place the laundry in the drum, one item at a time, shaking them out as much as possible. Measure out the detergent Pull out the dispenser drawer until it stops.

Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent (creates too much foam) has been used. Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet hose fittings. It is not always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose; check to see if it is damp. [. . . ]
