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 cup or bowl to scoop water out of the wash cabinet.

Tilt the locking clamp to the side .

Pull out the non-return valve 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!
