Drain 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.

P1114

Place a container close to the pump to collect any spillage.

Release the emergency emptying hose, place it in the container and remove its cap.

When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump guard and remove it. Always keep a rag nearby to dry up spillage of water when removing the pump guard.

P1115

Remove any objects from the pump impeller by rotating it.

Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose and place the latter back in its seat.

Screw the pump guard fully in.

Close the pump door.

Water inlet filter

If you notice that the machine is taking longer to fill, check that the filter in the water inlet hose is not blocked.
