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.
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 burning risk, filter must be cleaned
after the water in the machine cools down.
2. Open the filter cap.
If the filter cap is composed of two pieces, press the tab on the filter cap downwards and pull the piece out
towards yourself.
C
You can remove the filter cover by slightly pushing downwards with a thin plastic tipped tool, through the gap above the filter
cover. Do not use metal tipped tools to remove the cover.
3. Some of our products have emergency draining hose and some does not have. Follow the steps below to
discharge the water.
Discharging the water when the product has an emergency draining hose:
a. Pull the emergency draining hose out from its seat
b. Place a large container at the end of the hose. Drain the water into the container by pulling out the plug at
the end of the hose. When the container is full, block the inlet of the hose by replacing the plug. After the
container is emptied, repeat the above procedure to drain the water in the machine completely.
c. When draining of water is finished, close the end by the plug again and fix the hose in its place.
d. Turn the pump filter to take it out.
4. Clean any residues inside the filter as well as fibers, if any, around the pump impeller region.
5. Install the filter.
6. If the filter cap is composed of two pieces, close the filter cap by pressing on the tab. If it is one piece, seat
the tabs in the lower part into their places first, and then press the upper part to close.
