7.5 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. Thus, the water
will be discharged without any problem and the
service life of the pump will extend.
If the machine fails to drain water, the pump
filter is clogged. Filter must be cleaned
whenever it is clogged or in every 3 months.
Water must be drained off first to clean the
pump filter.
In addition, prior to transporting the machine
(e.g., when moving to another house) and in
case of freezing of the water, water may have
to be drained completely.
