Cleaning the drain pump

WARNING

RISK OF SCALDING
Risk of hot water injury to skin!
Allow the water to cool down prior to actuating the

emergency door lock release.
Caution, you are responsible for ensuring the safety

of doing so. The water in the drum may be very hot

and may pose a scald risk. Also, the drum may be

full of water.

It may be necessary to clean the washer drain pump if

the washer fails to drain (sound of water being pumped

from the washer cannot be heard when the washer

should be draining and other nearby drains, such as a

sink, are draining properly).
The washer pump can become blocked by loose debris

(a good reason to check the drum and remove any

visible debris after each load.) Fabrics that give off large

amounts of fluff may also cause blockage.
To access the washer drain pump, the service cover

must first be removed (see steps below). With the service

cover removed, proceed as follows:

1.

If the washer has not been drained, try to drain it now.

Turn the cycle selector to the Spin/Drain cycle, select

No spin and press the Start/Pause button. Wait a few

moments to let the cycle drain the water from the

drum. If the pump is totally blocked, the water will be

unable to drain and the cycle will end.

2.

Shut off the tap so that no more water flows in and has

to be drained.
Switch the appliance off. Unplug the power plug.

3.

Open and remove the service cover.

4.

Loosen the screws and remove the protective film.
