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
WARNING: Foreign
substances left in the pump
filter may damage your
machine or may cause
noise problem.
A
WARNING: If the product
is not in use, turn the tap
off, detach the supply hose
and drain the water inside

the product.
In order to clean the dirty filter and
discharge the water:
•

supply power.

of the water inside the
machine may rise up to
90 ºC. To avoid burning risk,
