I used the “wash tank” option and the machine automaticalled filled up to 70 L. Now after 5 hours I stopped the program, since I thought something is not properly working.
The problem now is that there is still a lot of water inside and I don’t know how to get rid of it. I tried to start a normal washing programm (no clothes) with 25 L + 6 分 cleaning, but after it finished, the water was still inside.
Any easy way to drain the water? Thank you!
Just select the 脫水 option on it’s own? May have to press it twice to get only it lit up.
With regards the drum self clean, on mine there is an option for 4/8/12 hours, did you have a timer or any other activity before cancelling?
I would have thought there’s a “drain” or “pump” option, but what I’ve also done in the past is run a short cycle so it drains the water (one spin on the slowest setting, for example).
You should be able to use Google Translate on the buttons too.
Might also be worth looking for the instruction manual for that or a related model in English/German* — the button layout is probably the same. (Note the model number might be slightly different, there’s a good chance it’s market-specific.)
(* In case that sounds like a random suggestion, it’s because I remember you as being German. If you’re not, my mistake!)
Drained it all in 7mins, thanks!
The translation “dehydration” was confusing, even though it somehow makes sense😂
I have the same model…and the same issue. It is weird because I didn’t need the extra step with the Samsung washing machine I had before. Dunno if it is an issue with this model or a feature. 
Sorry to bring this up from the dead; but how do you drain it if there’s no electricity?
My building cuts out the electricity to the washing machines during nighttime, and I simply can’t activate the drain function. Does someone know how to drain it now?
I’d think there’s a manual drain valve but probably not worth the trouble if you can just wait a few hours.
Also you can’t spin it if no electricity
Yeah, there probably is, but without the electricity to run a spin cycle and the pump (if applicable) you’ll just end up with very damp clothes.
More hassle than it’s worth. The logical conclusion would be to run the machine when the electricity is on, which is presumably what the building staff were aiming for when they decided to turn the electricity off at night.
Or move, of course.
yeah, that seems nuts to kill it, but probably to stop the midnight laundry annoyance
Some machines have valves for that, but in this one I couldn’t find any (or at least one that won’t require tearing the machine up)
My problem is the machine’s timing is always inaccurate (said 37 minutes, then 40 minutes after, there’s still water in)…
You may have a ‘fluff” filter low down at the front of the machine, this also acts as a drain valve. Turn off the power & water if you can then open the valve and collect the water.
And if you’ve got a drain there, no shallow collector required.
You’re just going to have to wring that out by hand and take it to a laundromat dryer (ideally).
