Carry Out Emergency Emptying
•
When the washing machine no longer pumps off
the washing solution, an emergency emptying
operation must be carried out.
•
When the washing machine is in a room where
there is a frost risk, an emergency emptying oper-
ation must be carried out when there is a frost
risk.
Also: Unscrew the intake hose from the water tap
and lay it on the floor. Empty the drainage hose.

Warning!
Switch off the washing machine
before carrying out an emergency emptying
operation and pull out the mains plug.
Caution!
The washing solution running out
of the emergency emptying hose can be hot.
Risk of scalding! Allow the washing solution
to cool down before carrying out emergency
emptying.
1.
Provide a flat collecting vessel to catch the wash-
ing solution as it runs out.
2.
Open the flap downwards in the right part of the
base panel and pull it off.
3.
Remove the emergency emptying hose from the
holder.
4.

this, temporarily close the emergency emptying
hose again with the plug.

drained off:

Firmly push the plug into the emergency empty-
ing hose and turn it tight clockwise.
