Draining any remaining water and cleaning the pump filter
Filter system in your machine prevents
solid items such as buttons, coins and
fabric fibers clogging the pump propeller
during discharging of the washing
water. Thus, a good water discharger is
achieved and the pump life is extended.
• If your machine fails to drain the
water, the pump filter may be
clogged. You may have to clean
it every 2 years or whenever it is
plugged. Water must be drained off
to clean the pump filter.
In addition, water may have to be
drained off completely in the following
cases:
• before transporting the machine
(e.g. when moving house)
• when there is the danger of frost
In order to clean the dirty filter and
discharge the water;
1- Unplug the machine to cut off the
supply power.
A There may be water at 90°C in the
machine. Therefore, the filter must
be cleaned only after the inside
water is cooled down to avoid
hazard of scalding.
2- Open the filter cap. The filter cap
may be composed of one or two pieces
according to the model of your machine.
If it is composed of two pieces, press
the tab on the filter cap downwards and
pull the piece out towards yourself.
If it is composed of one piece, hold it
from both sides and open it by pulling
out.
3- An emergency drain hose is supplied
with some of our models. Others are not
supplied with this item.
If your product is supplied with an
emergency drain hose, do the following
as shown in the figure below:
• Pull out the pump outlet hose from
its housing.
• Place a large container at the end of
the hose. Drain the water off into the
container by pulling out the plug at
the end of the hose. If the amount
of water to be drained off is greater
than the volume of the container,
replace the plug, pour the water out,
then resume the draining process.
• After draining process is completed,
replace the plug into the end of the
