4.4.5 Dranng remanng water and cleanng the pump flter
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.
A
CAUTION: Foreign substances left in the pump filter may damage your machine or may cause noise problem.
CAUTION: If the product is not being used, shut the tap shut, remove mains pipe and drain the water inside
the machine against any likely freezing.
CAUTION: After each use, turn off the water tap to which the mains hose is connected.
In order to clean the drty flter and dscharge the water:
1 Unplug the machine to cut off the supply power.
A
CAUTION:
the filter after the water inside the machine is cooled down.
2. Open the filter cover.
3 Follow the below procedures in order to drain water.
The product does not have an emergency water dran hose, n order to dran the water:
a. In order to collect the water to flow out of the
filter, place a large vessel in front of the filter.
b. Turn and loosen the pump filter until water
starts to flow (counterclockwise). Fill the
flowing water into the container you have
placed in front of the filter. Always keep a piece
of cloth handy to absorb any spilled water.
c When the water inside the machine is finished,
take out the filter completely by turning it.
4. Clean any residues inside the filter as well as fibers, if any, around the pump impeller region.
5. Replace the filter.
6. If the filter cap is composed of two pieces, close the filter cap by pressing on the tab. If it is one
