Cleaning the drain pump and
non-return valve
If the dishwasher is not completely
drained at the end of a program, the
drain pump or non-return valve may be
blocked.
^
Turn off the dishwasher.
^
Remove the triple filter (see "Cleaning
the filter in the wash cabinet").
^
Use a jug or bowl to scoop water out
of the wash cabinet.
^
Tilt the locking clamp to the side.
^
Pull out the non-return valve and
rinse well under running water.
The drain pump is beneath the
non-return valve (see arrow).
^
Before returning the non-return valve,
check that the drain pump is not
blocked. Spin the propeller several
times in both directions to check for
obstructions.
^
Carefully refit the non-return valve
and secure it with the locking clamp.
^
Refit and lock the filter in place.
