Before figuring out why the machine is broken, it is important to know how to drain the water. This can be done forcibly in several ways. The appliance can be emptied manually or using an emergency drain.

You have to resort to draining through the spigot if you can not use the filter. The situation indicates that the system is clogged, so in this case you can not only get rid of water, but also eliminate the root cause of the machine failure at the same time. The plan is more complex and involves the following steps:
- Remove the back wall to gain access to the spigot (in some models it is necessary to remove the bottom). As a rule, it is located under the drum.
- They put a flat container and thoroughly stocked rags.
- The pipe is disconnected from the pump, for which remove the clamp.
- If after disconnecting the water does not spurt, then there is a clog, which must be carefully removed with your fingers.

Why does the washing machine takes in water and immediately drains, how to fix the problem??
Proper washing in a washing machine is possible only when the water flows into the tank in full.

If the panel is attached by latches and screws, then it is pushed aside and detached.
Then the washing machine is slightly tilted backwards. Prepared in advance, a container is placed under the pump filter. Turn filter handle counterclockwise. Water goes away. And it remains only to screw in the filter, release the container. This procedure should be carried out until the water is completely drained.
