AWG995 removing/cleaning detergent/fabric softener drawer

[Moreton]

I have Whirlpool AWG995 washer/drier
The fabric softener section of the drawer always has water in it.
The instruction manual (for what it's worth!) says:

"Pull out the drawer as far as possible"
"Remove the drawer"

But how do you release the drawer??
I can't find any catches, latches, screws or any way to get the drawer out??
The manual also says "take the sections apart" but in my drawer it appears to be all in one - 1 2 * - not in separate sections?

Anyone help Moreton?

on most machines i've seen (i sell them for a living!)

you simply pull the tray out, till it stops and then pull it more, it'll pull out then, sometimes takes a bit of force but usually does it.

There should be a syphon cap in the conditioner compartment. If it's not there you'll just see a tube with a hole in the top.
If it's the second one, you've lost the part. If it's the first, pull the cap off and clean it out.


Unplug your appliance before working on it.

Yep, the 995 has no release button, you pull it out till it stops, then one hand each side and give it a good tug and it will come out.

Thanks all, it takes a good yank to get the drawer out but it worked (and i got a bit wet!). Hole at the back was blocked so now hopfully all is well.
Thanks again
