VerifiedHiya,
F05 is a drainage failure.
If the appliance is full of water, unplug it from the wall socket, pull it out and drain the water out by lowering the drain hose into a bucket or wash basin.
Once empty, take the plastic cover off under the front panel, if there is a filter fitted to your appliance, take the filter out and clean the debris out.
If no filter, take the rear panel off and take the hose off the bottom of the tub, clean the debris out, clear the hoses and the pump.
Refit and try the machine again.
Hope this helps
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks
