The filter system in your machine prevents solid items/
foreign objects clogging the pump during discharge.
The filter must be cleaned whenever it is clogged or
every 3 months.
Water must be drained off before cleaning the
pump filter.
If your machine will not drain/empty or
spin check the pump filter for debris.
WARNING: Foreign objects left in the pump
filter may damage your machine or may cause
noise issues.
WARNING: Temperature of the water inside the
machine may be up to 90ºC. Allow to cool before
draining the machine.
