Electronics and housing
- Floor tray: Any leaking water from the
washing machine is collected in the
drip tray. There is a float switch to
close the water intake valve. The
water inlet is shut off and any water
inside the suds container is drained
away.
- Leak protection: Any leaking water
that is not collected in the drip tray is
detected. The water inlet is shut off
and any water inside the suds
container is drained away.
- Overflow protection: This prevents
the washing machine from taking in
too much water and overflowing. If
the water level exceeds a certain
level, the drain pump switches on
and pumps the excess water away.
