Problem checks
Before starting cleaning, maintenance and removal of faults, pull the mains plug out of the socket
and close the water-tap!
Opening the door in an emergency
•
Switch off main switch.
•
If there is water in the machine, drain it. (see emergency draining)
DANGER: The water could be very hot!
•
Ensure the drum has stopped rotating.
•
The emergency door opener (see picture) must be accessible at all
times even with built in machines. Pull the switch downwards using a
screwdriver or needle to carry out this procedure (see picture).
•
The door flicks open.
Emergency draining
If the programme is interrupted by a malfunction or in some other way the
water remaining in the machine can be removed through a hose.
•
Use a coin to remove the cover disc from this drain lock cap.
•
Once the hose has been folded out to its full length the water in the
machine can be drained out into an appropriate container. Important:
If the failure occurs during the heating phase it is essential that you
allow the water to cool before draining to avoid the danger of
scalding.
•
Replace the hose into the rear of the cap.
•
Cover with the cover plate.
Cleaning of drain filter
•
By adding the laundry, there is a possibility that foreign objects could
get into the washing machine and block the drain pump.
•
Check the filter time to time that there are no foreign objects.
Advise:
Check always drain filter before you call customer service.
Opening the drain filter
The drain filter must only be opened, when the machine is empty.
•
Press in the outer ring of the locking plug (Pic. 1),
•
Turn anticlockwise 1/4 turn (Pic. 2).
Press once again and turn another 1/4 turn, to release the plug.
•
Remove the drain filter and clean (Pic. 3).
•
In order to close, turn drain filter twice to the right
(turn - push - turn).
