CLEANING THE DRAIN PUMP FILTER/
DRAINING RESIDUAL WATER
NOTE:
Perform the following procedure every 6 months.
1.
Open the drain pump filter access door at the bottom right
corner at the front of the washer/dryer.
2.
Place a broad, flat pan beneath the drain pump filter to
collect the drain water. Pull out the black hose, remove
the plug, and drain the hose into the pan. Empty the
pan. Replace the drain hose plug and put the hose back
into place. Repeat this procedure if necessary until all
the water has drained. Make sure that the black hose is
completely dry.

residue from the filter by rinsing with water.
