drained at the end of a program, the
drain pump or non-return valve may be
blocked.

Turn off the dishwasher and pull the
plug.

Remove the triple filter (see "Triple
filter system").

Pull out the non-return valve b and
rinse it under running water.

The drain pump is beneath the
non-return valve (see arrow).
^ Remove all foreign objects from the
drain pump (glass or bone splinters).
^ Before returning the non-return valve,
check that the drain pump is not
blocked. Spin the propeller several
times in both directions to check for
