Cleaning the drain pump and
non-return valve
If the water has not been pumped away
at the end of a program, the drain pump
or the non-return valve might be
blocked. They are, however, easy to
clean.
Disconnect the dishwasher from the
electrical supply. Turn off the dish-
washer and withdraw the plug.

cabinet (see “Cleaning and care,
Cleaning the filters”).
Scoop the water out of the wash cab-
inet using a suitable container or
utensil.
Press the catch for the non-return
valve inwards .
Tilt the non-return valve inwards until
it is released .
Rinse it thoroughly under running wa-
ter and remove any dirt from the non-
return valve.
The drain pump is located underneath
the non-return valve (see arrow).
Remove all foreign objects from the
drain pump (glass or bone splinters).
Before returning the non-return
valve, check that the drain pump is
not blocked. Spin the impeller several
times in both directions to check for
obstructions.
Carefully reinsert the non-return valve
and secure it with the locking clamp.
Make sure the locking clamp
clicks into place!
Be careful not to damage any
delicate components when cleaning
the drain pump and the non-return
