    4. Check that the drain bottle has been pushed all the way to the back and does not move.

    CAUTION:

    When the message [EMPTY DRAIN BOTTLE] appears on the screen, be sure to discard the discharged fluid.

    Failing to discard the discharged fluid when [EMPTY DRAIN BOTTLE] is displayed will lead to the discharged fluid overflowing during cleaning.
