DRAIN PUMP
Regularly examine the drain pump and
make sure that it is clean.
Clean the pump if:
• The appliance does not drain the water.
• The drum cannot turn.
• The appliance makes an unusual noise
because of the blockage of the drain
pump.
• The display shows an alarm code be-
cause of the problem with water drain.
Warning!
• Disconnect the mains plug from the
mains socket.
• Do not remove the filter while the ap-
pliance operates. Do not clean the
drain pump if the water in the appli-
ance is hot. The water must be cold
before you clean the drain pump.
Cleaning the drain pump:
1. Open the drain pump door.
2. Pull the flap out to remove it.
3. Put a container below the recess of the
drain pump to collect the water that
flows out.
4. Press the two levers and pull forward
the drainage duct to let the water flow
out.
5. When the container is full of water, put
the drainage duct back again and emp-
ty the container. Do steps 4 and 5
again and again until no more water
flows out from the drain pump.
6. Pull back the drainage duct and turn
the filter to remove it.
