Cleaning the trap and the drain
pump
The washing machine has a trap where small
items such as coins, buttons, and hairpins can
collect. To clean the trap and the drain pump, do
as follows:
1.
Make sure that the main power switch is off.
2.
Open the door.
3.
Unhook the drain hose from the connector
inside the door and drain the water into a
suitable container, such as a shallow bowl.
4.
Turn the cover counter-clockwise to open the
pump. Remove the cover.
5.
Remove any items and debris from the pump
housing and cover. Also check that the pump
impellers at the back rotate.
6.
Screw on the cover, replace the drainage hose
on the hatch pin, and close the hatch.

NOTE!
Do not run the detergent compartment through
a dishwasher!
Pull the detergent compartment out as far as it
will go.

to remove it from the machine.
Rinse the compartment and scrub it clean. The
fabric softener compartment cover can be
removed.
Cleaning the outside of the machine
Clean the outside of the machine and the program
panel with a mild cleaner. Do not use any
