Draining any remaining water
and cleaning the pump filter
Filter system in your machine prevents solid
items such as buttons, coins and fabric
fibers clogging the pump propeller 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 every 2 years or
whenever it is blocked plugged. Water
must be drained off to clean the pump
filter.
In addition, water may have to be drained
off completely in the following cases:
• before transporting the machine (e.g.
when moving house)
• when there is the danger of frost
In order to clean the dirty filter and
discharge the water;
1- Disconnect or unplug the machine from
the power supply.

machine. Therefore, the filter must be
cleaned only after the inside water
