Detergent can also accumulate inside the
drawer recess: clean it with an old
toothbrush. Refit the drawer after
cleaning.
Cleaning the pump
The pump should be inspected regularly and particularly if
• the machine does not empty and/or spin
• the machine makes an unusual noise during draining due to objects
such as safety pins, coins etc. blocking the pump.
Proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the appliance.
• If necessary wait until the water has
cooled down.
• Open the pump door.
• Place a container close to the pump to
collect any spillage.
• Pull out the emergency emptying hose,
place it in the container and remove its
cap.
• When no more water comes out,
unscrew the pump cover and remove it.
Always keep a rag nearby to dry up
spillage of water when removing the
cover.
• Remove any objects from the pump
impeller by rotating it.
