Perform emergency drain
1 Warning! Switch off the washing machine before performing an emer-
gency drain!
If the washing machine no longer pumps out the water an emergency
drain must be performed.
Caution! The water which runs out of the emergency drain hose can be
hot. There is a danger of scolding! Before performing an emergency
drain, first allow the water to cool down!
0 Have a flat container on hand to catch the water.
0 Lift the rotating toggle from the housing
base and turn a quarter of a turn in an anti-
clockwise direction until it can be removed
from the housing base.
0 Pull out the rotating toggle with the
emergency drain hose.
0 Place the container under the hose.
0 Detach the emergency drain hose from the
rotating toggle.
The water runs out. Depending on the
amount of water, it may be necessary to
empty the container several times. Tempo-
rarily close the emergency drain hose in
between with the rotating toggle.
When the water is completely drained:
0 Press the rotating toggle firmly into the emergency drain hose.
0 Push in the rotating toggle with the emergency drain hose and tighten
by turning a quarter of a turn in a clockwise direction.
