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

Cleaning the water intake filters
There is a filter at the end of each water intake
valve at the rear of the machine and also at
the end of each water intake hose where they
are connected to the tap. These filters prevent
