WARNING!
• For any type of cleaning and maintenance, make sure the washing machine is
disconnected from the mains power supply and the water tap is closed.
• Do not open the service cover during the course of a wash program.
• If you are checking the drain pump after a hot water wash, take particular care
as any residual water in the machine may be hot. Wait with maintenance until the
water has cooled down to avoid burns.
Drain pump maintenance
In order to avoid blockages created by excess lint, threads or items such as bobby
pins, coins, etc., check the drain pump filter regularly, especially if the machine fails to
drain the water or spin properly, or if you notice any unusual noises during the drain or
spin cycles.
Clean the filter thoroughly following the instructions in Fig. 23. Place a container
underneath the drain pump filter when removing it, and always keep a rag nearby to
dry up any water spillage.
WARNING!
Make sure to reinstall the drain pump filter and close the service panel securely,
otherwise water may leak.
