4.4.5 Draining remaining water
and cleaning the pump filter
The filter system in your machine prevents
solid items such as buttons, coins and fabric
fibers clogging the pump impeller during
discharge of washing water. Thus, the water
will be discharged without any problem and the
service life of the pump will extend.
If the machine fails to drain water, the pump filter
is clogged. Filter must be cleaned whenever it
is clogged or in every 3 months. Water must be
drained off first to clean the pump filter.
In addition, prior to transporting the machine
(e.g., when moving to another house) and in
case of freezing of the water, water may have
to be drained completely.
A
CAUTION!
• Foreign substances left in the pump
filter may damage your machine
or may cause noise problem.
• If the product is not being used,
shut the tap shut, remove mains
pipe and drain the water inside the
machine against any likely freezing.
• After each use, turn off the water tap to
which the mains hose is connected.
In order to clean the dirty filter and discharge
the water:
1 Unplug the machine to cut off the supply
power.
A
CAUTION!
• Temperature of the water inside the
machine may rise up to 90 ºC. To avoid
the burning risk, clean the filter after the
water inside the machine is cooled down.
2. Open the filter cover.
