Draining Any Remaining Water And Cleaning The Pump Filter - Beko WMD 25085 T Manual

Draining any remaining water and
cleaning the pump filter
Your product is equipped with a filter system
which ensures a cleaner water discharge that
extends pump life by preventing solid items
such as buttons, coins and fabric fibers from
clogging the pump propeller during discharge
of the washing water.
• 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 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- Unplug the machine to cut off the supply
power.
A
There may be water at 90°C in the
machine. Therefore, the filter must
be cleaned only after the inside water
is cooled down to avoid hazard of
scalding.
2- Open the filter cap. The filter cap may be
composed of one or two pieces according to
the model of your machine.
If it is composed of two pieces, press the tab
on the filter cap downwards and pull the piece
out towards yourself.
If it is composed of one piece, hold it from
both sides and open it by pulling out.
3- An emergency drain hose is supplied with
some of our models. Others are not supplied
with this item.
If your product is supplied with an emergency
drain hose, do the following as shown in the
figure below:
• Pull out the pump outlet hose from its
housing.
• Place a large container at the end of
the hose. Drain the water off into the
container by pulling out the plug at the
end of the hose. If the amount of water
to be drained off is greater than the
volume of the container, replace the
plug, pour the water out, then resume
the draining process.
• After draining process is completed,
replace the plug into the end of the
hose and fit the hose back into its
place.
If your product is not supplied with an
emergency drain hose, do the following as
shown in the figure below:
• Place a large container in front of the
filter to receive water flowing from the
filter.
• Loosen pump filter (anticlockwise) until
water starts to flow out of it. Direct the
flowing water into the container you
have placed in front of the filter. You
can use a piece of cloth to absorb any
spilled water.
• When there is no water left, turn the
pump filter until it is completely loose
and remove it.
• Clean any residues inside the filter
as well as fibers, if any, around the
propeller region.
• If your product has a water jet feature,
be sure to fit the filter into its housing
in the pump. Never force the filter while
replacing it into its housing. Fit the filter
fully into its housing; otherwise, water
may leak from the filter cap.
4- Close the filter cap.
Close the two-piece filter cap of your product
by pushing the tab on it.
Close the one-piece filter cap of your product
by fitting the tabs on the bottom into their
positions and pushing the upper part of it.
