12.6 Cleaning the drain filter
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.
To clean the drain filter:
WARNING!
When the appliance is in use and depending on the programme selected
there can be hot water in the filter. Never remove the filter cover during a
wash cycle, always wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is
empty. When refitting the filter cover, ensure it is securely re-tightened so
as to stop leaks and young children being able to remove it.
1. Unplug the appliance.
2. If it is necessary, wait until the water has cooled down.
