- Cleaning Drain Pump Filter: For models with this function, the drain pump filter needs periodic cleaning to remove yarns and foreign matters. This involves draining water from the pump, opening the filter by turning it counter-clockwise, removing extraneous matter, cleaning the filter, and then restoring and tightening the pump cover. Caution is advised due to potential hot water in the pump.
