Cleaning the drawer recess

Cleaning the pump
The pump should be inspected regularly and
particularly if:
• The appliance does not empty and/or spin.
• The appliance makes an unusual noise dur-
ing draining due to objects such as safety
pins, coins etc. blocking the pump.
• A problem with water draining is detected
(see chapter "What to do if..." for more de-
tails).
Warning! Before opening the pump door,
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.

top part of the addi-
tive compartment
should be removed.
Having removed the
drawer, use a small
brush to clean the re-
cess, ensuring that all
washing powder resi-
due is removed from
the upper and lower
part of the recess.
When no more water comes out, remove the

Always keep a rag nearby to dry up any water
spillage when removing the filter.
Clean the filter under a tap, to remove any
traces of fluff.

please contact the Service.
Open the pump door.
Place a container
close to the pump .
Unscrew carefully the
drain filter to drain out
the water.

ies and fluff from the
