Cleaning the drain pump and non-return valve

If the dishwasher is not completely drained at the end of a program, the drain pump or non-return valve may be blocked.

^Turn off the dishwasher and pull the plug.

^Remove the triple filter (see "Triple filter system").

^Use a jug or bowl to scoop water out of the wash cabinet.

^Tilt the locking clamp to the side a.

^Pull out the non-return valve b and rinse it under running water.

^Remove all foreign objects from the non-return valve.

The drain pump is beneath the non-return valve (see arrow).

^Remove all foreign objects from the drain pump (glass or bone splinters).

^Before returning the non-return valve, check that the drain pump is not blocked. Spin the propeller several times in both directions to check for obstructions.

^Carefully reinsert the non-return valve and secure it with the locking clamp.

,Make sure the locking clamp clicks into place!
