Cleaning the drain pump filter
Filter system in your machine prevents solid items such as buttons,
coins and fabric fibers clogging the pump impeller during discharging
of the washing water. Thus, a good water discharge 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 occasionally to prevent any
clogging. Water must be drained completely to clean the pump
filter.
In addition, water may have to be drained off completely in the
following cases:
• before transporting the appliance (e.g. when moving )
• when there is a danger of frost
In order to clean the dirty filter and discharge the water:
1. Disconnect or unplug the machine from the power supply.
A
WARNING
•
There may be water at 158F (70°C) in the drum. Therefore, the
filter must be cleaned only after the inside water is cooled down to
avoid hazard of scalding.
2. Open the filter cover.
