event of a power failure
If the drain outlet is clogged, more
water will be retained in the machine
(up to 6.5 gal/25l).
Caution: If laundry has been washed
at a high temperature, the water
draining out of the machine will still
be hot! Stop and allow it to cool be-
fore proceeding.
^ Turn off the washing machine.
Take the (yellow) filter flap opener from
behind the detergent drawer facia
panel (see illustration below).
^ Remove the opener.
Important
Left hand hinged machines have two
access panels in the plinth. The left
hand panel conceals the emergency
drainage.
Problem solving guide
^ Open the flap (in the machine plinth).
^ Place a dish or bowl under the spout.
^ Point the drain hose into the con-
tainer.
^ Remove the stopper. When no more
water comes out, replace the stopper
in the end of the hose.
^ If there is a large amount of water in
the machine this procedure will have
to be repeated several times.
