Cleaning the pump
The pump should be inspected if
• the machine does not empty and/or
spin
• the machine makes an unusual noise
during draining due to objects such as
safety pins, coins etc. blocking the
pump.
Proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the appliance.
• If necessary wait until the water has
cooled down.
• Open the pump door.
• Place a containfer close to the pump
to collect any spillage.
• Pull out the emergency emptying
hose, place it in the container and
remove its cap.
• When no more water comes out,
unscrew the pump cover and remove
it. Always keep a rag nearby to dry up
spillage of water when removing the
cover.
