Cleaning the pump
The pump should be inspected if
•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:
•Disconnect the appliance.
•If necessary wait until the water has cooled down.
•Open the pump door.

•Place a container close to the pump to collect any spillage.
•Pull out the emergency emptying hose, place it in the container and remove its cap.
•When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump cover and remove it. Always keep a rag nearby to dry up spillage of water when removing the cover.

•Remove any objects from the pump impeller by rotating it.
•Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose and place the latter back in its seat.

•Screw the pump cover fully in.
•Close the pump door.
Warning
When the appliance is in use and depending on the programme selected there can be hot water in the pump. Never remove the pump cover during a wash cycle, always wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty. When replacing the cover, ensure it is securely retightened so as to stop leaks and young children being able to remove it.
Cleaning the water inlet filter
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time. Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose. Clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.
Tighten up the inlet hose.
