Opening the drum door in the
event of a power failure
Switch off the washing machine.
Remove the flap opener from behind
the detergent drawer facia panel.
Open the flap (in the machine plinth).
Place a dish or bowl under the spout.
Point the drain hose into the con-
tainer.
Remove the stopper.
Caution: if laundry has been
washed at a high temperature water
draining out of the machine will still
be hot!
The amount of water discharged de-
pends on the drainage height. A de-
livery head (e.g. 1 m) will mean there is
more water to drain. The container will
need to be emptied several times.
When no more water drains out
place the stopper back in the hose.
