Machine will not drain; water remains in drum and F05 is displayed, often with humming from the bottom front.

Safety: Unplug the appliance. Keep towels and a shallow tray ready for water spillage.

• Clean the pump filter:
  • Open the lower front access flap.
  • Place a tray and towels under the pump filter cap.
  • Slowly unscrew the cap and allow water to drain.
  • Remove debris (coins, lint, buttons) from the filter and pump impeller area.
  • Ensure the impeller spins freely.
• Check drain hose:
  • Inspect the external drain hose for kinks or clogs.
  • Disconnect from the standpipe or sink trap and flush with water.
• Inspect sump hose:
  • From underneath or rear, locate the large black hose from tub to pump.
  • Clamp and remove it, then clear any blockages (socks, lint).
• Test pump operation:
  • With the machine reassembled, run a drain/spin cycle and listen for the pump.
  • If the pump is silent or only hums and does not move water, the pump motor is likely faulty and should be replaced.
• If water drains but F05 persists: Check the pressure switch and hose for blockages as the control may not detect an empty tub.
