Drain pump

 

The drain pump is maintainance-free. The cover of the drain pump is

 

required to be opened only in the event of a malfunction when no

 

more water is being pumped out, e.g. if the pump wheel is blocked.

 

Before loading the machine, please always ensure that there are no for-

 

eign objects present in the pockets or inbetween the items to be

 

washed. Paper clips, nails etc. which may find their way into the wash-

 

ing machine along with the washing will remain in the drain pump

 

housing (foreign objects are protected by the pump wheel).

 

To restart the drain pump when it is blocked, please proceed as follows:

1

Warning! Switch off the washing machine and remove the mains plug

 

before cleaning the drain pump!

01. First carry out an emergency emptying procedure (see section “Carrying out emergency emptying”).

2.Place a cloth on the floor in front of the cover of the drain pump. Residual water may run out.

3. Unscrew the drain pump cover in an anti-clockwise motion and pull it out.

4. Remove any foreign objects and fabric lint from the pump housing and from the pump wheel.

5.Check that you are able to turn the

pump wheel at the very rear of the pump housing. (If the wheel rotates with a jerky motion, this is normal.) If you cannot turn the pump wheel, please contact customer service.
