6.Now unscrew the foreign body trap completely and extract it.

7.Remove any foreign items from the foreign body trap.

8.Make sure the pump impeller (in the housing behind the foreign body trap) is not obstructed.

9.Insert the foreign body trap again and screw it fully down in a clockwise direction to the stop (until the grip is horizontal).

10.Pour 0.5 litres of water into the machine via the drum and check that water does not leak from the foreign body trap.

11.Close the foreign body trap cover.

12.Reconnect the washing machine.

Check the foreign body trap if the washing machine is not draining correctly or if it fails to perform spin cycles.

Check the foreign body trap regularly, two or three times a year and clean it if necessary.
