frequently.

Cleaning the pump

The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning
pump which does not require any maintenance.
Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons)

pump, situated in its bottom part.

5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are
securely in place before you push it onto the
appliance.

Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there are

cracked hose could easily split open.
