CLEANING THE NEEDLE TRAP AND THE DRAIN

The washing machine has a trap in which coins,
hairpins and similar items fasten. Clean the need-
le trap and the drain pump as follows:
1. Ensure that the machine is drained and the
main power switch is turned OFF.

tion piece from
the detergent
compartment, as
illustrated.
3. Drain off the water, eg, in a bowl, by pulling
loose the drain
hose from its con-
nection on the in-
side of the cover.
4. Open the pump by screwing its cover antic-
lockwise. Pull out
the cover together
with the needle
trap.
5. Clean out any objects and foreign matter from
the pump housing.
Ensure that the
pump blade, at the
rear, can be rota-
ted.
6. Screw on the cover together with the needle
trap, put the drain
hose back on its
connection and
close the door.

goes.
