• if necessary, wait until the water has cooled
down;
• open the pump door;
• place a bowl on the floor and place the end
of the emergency emptying hose into the
bowl. Remove its cap. The water should
drain by gravity into the bowl. When the bowl
is full, put the cap back on the hose. Empty
the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water
stops flowing out;
• clean the pump if necessary as previously
described;
• replace the emergency emptying hose in its
seat after having plugged it;
• screw the pump cover again and close the
door.
Important!
Every time you drain the water
through the emergency emptying hose you
must pour 2 litres of water into the main wash
compartment of the detergent drawer and then
run the drain programme. This will activate the
ECO Valve
device avoiding that part of the
detergent remains unused at next washing.
