CLEANING THE DRAIN FILTER

The pump should be inspected regularly and
particularly if:
• the appliance does not empty and/or spin;
• the appliance makes an unusual noise during
draining phase due to objects such as safety
pins, coins and so on blocking the pump;
• a problem with water draining is detected (see
chapter 'Troubleshooting' for more details).
CAUTION! Switch the appliance off
and remove the mains plug from the
socket.
Proceed as follows:
• Unplug the appliance.
• If it is necessary, wait until the water has cooled
down.
