6.3 CLEANING THE DOOR GASKET
Check regularly that there are no brooches, buttons, nails or pins in the folds of the door gasket.

6.4 CLEANING THE DRAIN PUMP

The drain pump only needs cleaning if it has been blocked by buttons, brooches or similar objects and the water is
not being pumped out.
In this case, proceed as described below.
1. Remove the mains plug to disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.
2. Depending on the model, proceed as follows:
Built-in/totally concealed model – use a small screw-
driver as a lever to remove the plugs shown here,
turn the plinth downwards and access the pump.
Free-Standing Model – Insert a small screwdriver
through the slits in the front of the plinth, then apply
upward leverage with the screwdriver to release the
top of the plinth from the cabinet.
Tilt the plinth forward slightly and pull it upward to re-
move it completely.
3. Extract the drain hose "A".
Warning: if the hose is hot, the water is hot or boiling hot. Place a shallow
container on the floor and remove the plug "B" to drain off the water.
Depending on the amount of water in the appliance, the container may have
to be emptied several times.
When no more water is coming out, close the hose again by pushing the plug
"B" firmly back into place.
4. Unscrew the cover of the pump "D" by turning it to the left.
Clean the pump and remove any foreign bodies.
Also check the inside "E", making sure that the impeller turns freely; any foreign
bodies stuck in it must be removed.
5. Screw the cover back on the pump.
Secure the drain house by snapping the plug back into place "C".
Depending on the model, replace the plinth as follows:
Built-in/completely concealed model – Fit the bottom of the plinth first. Push it towards the cabinet and put the
plugs back into place.
Free-standing model – Fit the bottom of the plinth first and then push it towards the cabinet until it snaps into
place.
