Cleaning the drain pump
If water remains in the wash cabinet af-
ter the end of a program, the water has
not been pumped away. The drain
pump may be blocked by foreign ob-
jects. These foreign objects are easy to
remove.
Disconnect the dishwasher from the
power supply.
To do this, turn off at the electrical
socket and withdraw the plug.
Take the filter combination out of the
wash cabinet (see “Cleaning the fil-
ters” under “Cleaning and care”).
Scoop the water out of the wash cab-
inet 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.
