Cleaning the drain pump
If water remains in the wash cabinet
after the end of a programme, the water
has not been pumped away. The drain
pump may be blocked by foreign ob-
jects. These are easy to remove.
Disconnect the dishwasher from the
mains.
To do this, turn off the dishwasher,
switch off at the socket and withdraw
the plug.
Take the filter combination out of the
wash cabinet (see “Cleaning and
care” chapter, “Cleaning the filters”).
Scoop the water out of the cabinet
using a suitable small container or
utensil.
Press the catch of the drain pump
cover inwards
.
Tip the cover inwards until it is re-
leased
.
Rinse the cover thoroughly under run-
ning water and remove all foreign ob-
jects.
