Folding down the tub
Prevent any discharge of the salt solution! Check that the lid of the
salt dispenser is correctly closed. Close the salt dispenser.
Protect support surface for the tub from being scratched. In the
case of
free-standing appliances
, ensure that the weight does
not fall out of the basis carrier.
1. Bend the metal plates of the tub catch straight using a screw driver.
2. From above, release the plate hinges on the front side from the catch
mechanism with a screwdriver. To do this, bend the catch mechanism of the
plate hinge inwards.
