    • The washing machine may be full of water if the valve is faulty and therefore left slightly open.

    • There is a panel on the bottom right of the front of the washing machine. This contains the filters and emergency outlets. Open it forwards, and remove it.

    • Do _not_ unscrew the large valve to the left unless you are sure the machine is empty. You may be rewarded with several gallons of water pouring out. Instead, pull out the emergency outlet hose located to the top right, put it in a bucket, and pull out the tab controlling the water flow. Empty the bucket as necessary until all the water is gone.

    • Once all the water has been emptied, you can open the large valve, and catch the rest of the water in a towel.
