Debris filter
It is advisable to clean the debris filter 5 or 6 times a year to prevent its clogging. A clogged debris
filter may reduce the bubble effect.
1. Turn off the washing machine, and unplug the power cord.
2. Drain the remaining water inside the drum by referring to
"Emergency drain" on page 37.
3. Open the filter cover using a coin or key.
4. Turn the debris filter cap to the left, and drain off the remaining
water.
5. Remove the debris filter.
6. Clean the debris filter using soft brushes. Make sure the drain
pump propeller inside the filter is unclogged.
7. Reinsert the debris filter, and turn the filter cap to the right.
• To open the safety filter cap, push in and turn it
anticlockwise. The spring of the cap helps to open the
cap.
• To close the safety filter cap, turn it clockwise. The
spring makes a rattling sound, which is normal.
• If the debris filter is clogged, an error code of "5E" appears on the screen.
CAUTION
• Make sure the filter cap is closed properly after cleaning the filter. Otherwise, this may
cause a leak.
• Make sure the filter is inserted properly after cleaning it. Otherwise, this may cause an
operational failure or a leak.
