Pause and check the cycle
Confirm that the cycle has finished and that a rinse-hold setting has not been selected. Note any error code before resetting the appliance according to its manual.
Look for visible problems
Check the accessible drain hose for kinks without disconnecting it. Do not force the door open or remove filters while the machine is running or full of water.
Get help for recurring faults
Repeated drainage failures, leaks, or unusual pump noises should be inspected by a technician. Share the model and error code when requesting a visit.
