Washer-dryer does not drain fully; small amount of water remains in drum after cycle

Safety first: Unplug the appliance and prepare towels for any water spillage.

• Step 1 – Clean pump filter: Open the pump filter cover and remove any lint or debris. Ensure the filter is fully tightened when refitting.
• Step 2 – Flush drain hose: Detach the drain hose from the standpipe or sink and flush it with water to clear any partial blockages.
• Step 3 – Check hose installation: Ensure the hose is installed at the correct height and not submerged in standing water, which can cause backflow.
• Step 4 – Assess pump performance: Run a drain-only program and listen to the pump. If it sounds weak or intermittent, or if water drains very slowly despite clear hoses, replace the drain pump.
