Cleaning the drain pump

WARNING: RISK OF SCALDING
Risk of hot water injury to skin!
Allow the water to cool down prior to actuating
the emergency door lock release.
You are responsible for ensuring all safety
precautions are followed when draining water
from washer and/or manually opening the
washer door.
It may be necessary to clean the washer drain
pump if the washer fails to drain (sound of the
water being pumped from the washer cannot be
heard when the washer should be draining and
other nearby drains, such as a sink, are draining
properly).
The washer pump can become blocked by loose
debris (a good reason to check the drum and
remove any visible debris after each load). Fabrics
that give off large amounts of fluff may also cause
blockage.
To access the washer, drain pump, the service
cover must first be opened (see steps below).
With the service cover opened, proceed as
follows:
1. If the washer has not been drained, try to
drain it now. Turn the wash cycle selector knob to
the Spin cycle, press the SPEED button to set the
spin cycle is turned off (all spinning speed value
indicator light go out on the display), then press
the Start/Pause button. Wait a few moments to
let the cycle drain the water from the drum. If the
pump is totally blocked, the water will be unable
to drain, and the cycle will end.
2. Shut off the tap so that no more water
flows in and has to be drained. Switch the
appliance off.
Unplug the power plug.
3. Open the drain filter cover.
4. Use the pull-out drain hose located in the
pump access opening to drain the remaining
water into a suitable container (up to 20 litres of
water may be drained). Pull the sealing cap from
the hose and lay the hose over the side of the
container and allow the water to finish draining
from the drum. When finished, replace the
sealing cap into the end of the hose and restore
the hose to its storage location.
5. Turn the pump cover counterclockwise
to remove it. A small amount of residual water
may flow out when the cover is removed. Clean
the interior of the pump hosing, removing any
debris or foreign objects. Check to be sure the
impeller where at the back of the pump housing
can now turn freely. Remove any lint, debris, or
detergent residue from the threads of the pump
cover and the pump cover housing. Replace the
pump cover by screwing tightly into position.
Handle must be
vertically.
