Remove the drawer by
pressing the catch down-
wards and by pulling it
out. Flush it out under a
tap, to remove any traces
of accumulated powder.
To aid cleaning, the top
part of the additive com-
partment should be re-
moved.
Cleaning the drawer recess
Having removed the
drawer, use a small brush
to clean the recess, en-
suring that all washing
powder residue is re-
moved from the upper
and lower part of the re-
cess.
Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme
without any clothes in the drum.
Cleaning the 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 drain-
ing due to objects such as safety pins, coins etc.
blocking the pump;
• a problem with water draining is detected (see chap-
ter “What to do if...” for more details).
Warning!
1.
Disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.
2. Do not remove the filter while the appliance oper-
ates. Do not clean the drain pump if the water in
the appliance is hot. The water must be cold before
you clean the drain pump.
Proceed as follows:
Open the pump door.
Put a container below the recess of the drain pump to
collect the water that flows out.
Press the two levers and pull forward the drainage
duct to let the water flow out.
When the container is full of water, put the drainage
duct back again and empty the container. Do steps 3
and 4 again and again until no more water flows out
from the drain pump.
