CLEANING THE DEBRIS FILTER
We recommend cleaning the debris fi lter when water does not drain well or the “nd” error message is displayed.
1. Open the fi lter cover by pressing and then pulling the handle of
the fi lter cover with your fi nger.
2. Holding the drain cap, pull the drain tube that
is hooked on the guide hook to the front. Do
not pull the drain tube with excessive force.
3. Place a bowl under the washing machine to
catch any remaining water. Then, hold the
drain tube with one hand, and turn the drain
cap counter clockwise with the other hand to
separate it from the drain tube.
4. Drain the remaining water completely.
5. Turn the debris cap counterclockwise, and then pull
the debris cap and debris fi lter assembly out of the
washer.
6. Wash any dirt or other material from the
debris fi lter. Make sure the drain pump
propeller behind the debris fi lter is not
blocked.
7. When you have fi nished cleaning the fi lter, insert the debris
cap and fi lter assembly back into the washer. Turn the
debris fi lter cap clockwise until the indicator on the debris
fi lter cap is in the 12 o’clock position, pointing to the
indicator on the washer.
8. Re-attach the emergency drain cap to the drain tube, and
then hook the tube to the hook guide.
9. Re-install the fi lter cover.
