Cleaning the pump
The pump should be inspected if

spin

during draining due to objects such as
safety pins, coins etc. blocking the
pump.
Proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the appliance.
• If necessary wait until the water has
cooled down.
• open the pump door levering on the
groove with a coin or with the
suitable tool, that you can find in the
bag containing the instruction
booklet (or fitted on the appropriate
recess behind the detergent
dispenser drawer depending on the
model).
