Warning
Risk of scalding!
When you wash at high temperatures,
the water gets very hot. If you come into
contact with the hot water, you may be
scalded.
Allow the water to cool down.
1.
Turn off the water tap so that no
more water can flow in and has to be
drained via the drain pump.
2.
Switch off the appliance. Pull out the
mains plug.
3.
Open and remove the service flap.
4.
Take the drain hose out of the
retainer.
Remove the sealing cap and pour
the water out into a suitable
container.
Replace the sealing cap and place
the drain hose back in the retainer.
5.
Carefully unscrew the pump cover;
residual water may leak out.
Clean the interior, pump-cover
thread and pump housing. The
impeller in the drain pump must be
able to rotate.
Refit the pump cover and screw it on
tightly. The handle must be in a
vertical position.
