Operating Instructions

Cleaning the drain pump

 

Paper clips, nails and so on can sometimes get into the washing ma-

 

chine with the washing and remain in the drain pump casing. Fluff and

 

strands of fabric can gather on these items and block the drain pump.

 

Therefore the drain pump should be cleaned at least once a year.
