Cleaning the drawer recess
Having removed the
drawer, use a small
brush to clean the
recess, ensuring that all
washing powder
residue is removed from
the upper and lower
part of the recess.
Replace the drawer and run the rinse
programme without any clothes in the drum.
Cleaning the pump
The pump should be inspected 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.
● Refit the cap on the emergency emptying
hose and place the latter back in its seat.
● Screw the pump cover
fully in.
● Close the pump door.

MPORTANT!
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the pump.
Never remove the pump cover during a wash
cycle, always wait until the appliance has
finished the cycle, and is empty. When
replacing the cover, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Cleaning the water inlet filter
If your water is very hard or contains traces of
lime deposit, the water inlet filter may become
clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time
to time.
Turn off the water tap.
Unscrew the water inlet
hose. Clean the filter
using a hard bristle
brush. Refit the inlet
hose.
The dangers of freezing
If the machine is exposed to temperatures
below 0°C, certain precautions should be
taken.
● Turn off the water tap.
● Unscrew the inlet hose.
