inlet filter is clogged with dirt. Clean the inlet
filter.
Cleaning the Drain Pump Filter
The washer fails to drain if the drain pump filter is
clogged. Periodically clean the drain filter to
prevent clogging with foreign objects.
WARNING
• Opening the drain filter will result in water
overflowing if there is water in the drum. Use a
bucket if the drum is not completely drained
before you open the drain filter.
• Using the washer without the drain filter or with
an incorrectly assembled drain filter may cause
leaks or malfunction of the washer.

cord.

• Unclip the drain hose and remove the plug
from the drain hose to drain the remaining
water.
