• When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump

cover and remove it. Always keep a rag nearby to dry
up spillage of water when removing the cover.

• Remove any objects from the pump impeller by

rotating it.

• Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose

and place the latter back in its seat.

• Screw the pump cover fully in.
• Close the pump door.

Warning

When the appliance is in use and depending on the
programme selected there can be hot water in the
pump. Never remove the pump cover during a wash
cycle, always wait until the appliance has finished the
cycle, and is empty. When replacing the cover, ensure it
is securely retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.

Cleaning the water inlet filter

If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime
deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time.
Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose.
Clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.

Tighten up the inlet hose.

The dangers of freezing

If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,
certain precautions should be taken.

• Turn off the water tap.

• Unscrew the inlet hose.

• Place the end of the emergency emptying hose and

that of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor
and let water drain out.

• Screw the water inlet hose back on and reposition

the emergency emptying hose after having put the
cap on again.

• When you intend to start the machine up again,

make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.

Important!

Every time you drain the water through the
emergency emptying hose you must pour 2
litres of water into the main wash compartment
of the detergent drawer and then run the drain
programme.

Emergency emptying out

If the water is not discharged, proceed as follows to
empty out the machine:

• pull out the plug from the power socket;

• close the water tap;

• if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;

• open the pump door;

• place a bowl on the floor and place the end of the

emergency emptying hose into the bowl. Remove its
cap. The water should drain by gravity into the bowl.
When the bowl is full, put the cap back on the hose.
Empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water
stops flowing out;

• clean the pump if necessary as previously described;

• replace the emergency emptying hose in its seat after

having plugged it;

• screw the pump cover again and close the door.
