Carrying out an emergency emptying
1 Warning! Switch off the washing machine before the emergency
emptying!
If the washing machine no longer pumps out the water an emergency
emptying must be carried out.
Warning! The water, which flows out of the emergency emptying hose
can be hot. First allow the water to cool down before emergency
emptying!
0 Put down a flat container to catch the water draining out.
0 Pull down the flap in the left corner of
the base strip and remove it.
0 Release the emergency emptying hose
from its holder.
0 Pull the emergency emptying hose out a
little.
0 Place a container underneath to
catch the water.
0 Release the plug of the emergency
emptying hose by turning it anti-
clockwise and pull it out.
The water will drain out. Depending on
the amount of water, it may be necessary
to empty the container to catch the
water several times. To do this, temporarily
close the emergency emptying hose again with the plug.
When the water has drained out completely:
0 Push and twist the plug firmly back into the emergency emptying hose.
0 Push the emergency emptying hose back in a little and let it catch on
to the holder.

When the washing machine is completely empty, the ÖKO lock can no
longer function correctly. Therefore before the next wash pour in approx
1 litre water (pour it in through the washing powder compartment).
