Cautions during Draining
Draining of normal clothes:
Moistures of washings are drained through drain hole.

Draining of water-proof clothes and fiber products:
In the normal washing and draining status, moistures of water-proof clothes and fiber products can not be drained while water is gathered in one direction so that the eccentricity of washing machine is too great and vibration or moving is caused.
