DRAIN PUMP
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 due to objects such as
safety pins, coins etc. blocking the
pump;
• a problem with water draining is detected
(see chapter "Troubleshooting" for more
details).

Warning! Before unscrewing the pump
cover, switch the appliance off and
remove the mains plug from the
socket.
Proceed as follows:
1. Unplug the appliance.
2. If it is necessary, wait until the water
has cooled down.
3. Place a container close to the pump to
collect any spillage.
4. Release the emergency emptying hose
(B), place it in the container and re-
move its cap cover.
5. When no more water comes out, un-
screw the pump cover (A) by turning it
anti-clockwise and remove the filter.
Use pliers, if necessary.
Always keep a rag nearby to dry up
any water spillages when removing the
cover. Clean the filter under a tap, to
remove any traces of fluff.
6. Remove foreign bodies and fluff from
the filter seat and from the pump im-
peller.
