14.6 Cleaning the drain filter

The pump should be inspected regularly and particularly if:
• The appliance does not empty and/or spin.
• The appliance makes an unusual noise during draining due to objects such as safety

pins, coins etc. blocking the pump.

• A problem with water draining is detected (see chapter “Troubleshooting” for more

details).

WARNING!

Before unscrewing the pump cover, switch the appliance off and remove

the mains plug from the socket.

To clean the drain filter:

WARNING!

When the appliance is in use and depending on the programme selected

there can be hot water in the filter. Never remove the filter cover during a

wash cycle, always wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is

empty. When refitting the filter cover, ensure it is securely re-tightened so

as to stop leaks and young children being able to remove it.

1. Unplug the appliance.
2. If it is necessary, wait until the water has cooled down.
