•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:
1.Disconnect the appliance.
2.If necessary wait until the water has cooled down.
3.Place a container close to the pump (A) to collect any spillage.
4.Release the emergency emptying hose (B), place it in the container and remove its cap.
