Cleaning and maintenance
Door seal
Check from time to time the door seal and
eliminate eventual possible objects that could
be trapped in the fold.
Drain 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.
Release the
emergency emp-
tying hose, place
it in the contain-
er and remove its
cap.
When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump and remove it.
Always keep a rag nearby to dry up spillage of water when removing
the pump.
Remove any
objects from the
pump impeller by
rotating it.
Put the cap back
on the emergency
emptying hose
and place the lat-
ter back in its
seat.
Screw the pump fully in.
Close the pump door.
