Draining Remaining Water and Cleaning the Pump Filter
The filter system in your product prevents solid items such as buttons, coins and fabric fibres clogging the pump impeller during draining of washing water. Thus, the water will be drained without any problem and the service life of the pump will extend.
If the product fails to drain water inside it, 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 product (e.g., when moving to another house) water should be drained completely.
WARNING
NOTICE:
Foreign substances left in the pump filter may damage your product or may cause noise problem.
In regions where freezing is possible, the tap must be closed, system hose must be removed and the water inside the product must be drained when the product is not in use.
After each use, turn off the tap to which the mains hose is connected.
In order to clean the dirty filter and drain the water:
- Unplug the product to cut off the supply power.
WARNING
Temperature of the water inside the product may rise up to 90 ºC. To avoid the risk of scalding, clean the filter after the water inside the product is cooled down.
- Open the filter cover.
- Follow the below procedures in order to drain water.
If the product has an emergency water draining hose, in order to drain the water:
- Pull the emergency draining hose out of its seat.
- Place the end of the hose in a large container. Drain the water into the container by pulling out the plug at the end of the hose. When the container is filled, close the end of the hose with the plug. Drain all water by repeating the procedure specified above after draining the container.
- When the water drain is finished, close the end with the plug again and fix the hose in its place.
- Unscrew the pump filter.
- Clean any residues inside the filter as well as fibres, if any, around the pump impeller region.
- Replace the filter.
- If the filter cap is composed of two pieces, close the filter cap by pressing on the tab. If it is one piece, seat the tabs in the lower part into their places first, and then press the upper part to close.
