6.5 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. Therefore the waste water is
discharged without any problems and the service
life of the pump is increased.
If the machine does not drain the water, pump
filter may have been clogged. Filter should be
cleaned when clogged or once in 3 months.
In order to clean the pump filter, first the water
should be drained.
Also, before transporting the machine (for
example when moving to new house) and when
the water has the risk of freezing, water may have
to be fully drained.
