Removing standing water trapped inside an appliance drum, sink, or basin requires utilizing gravity drainage, manual pumping, or clearing downstream plumbing blockages. For a washing machine or dishwasher, you can force standing water to drain by selecting a manual "Drain" program on the digital control panel. If the machine lacks power, you can lower the external drain hose down into a low-lying bucket resting on the floor below the basin to let gravity siphon the water out. For blocked sink basins, you can use a plunger or clear the P-trap pipe underneath. You can troubleshoot blockages easily. You can verify that your corrective action is successful when gravity siphoning or clearing pipe clogs removes all standing water completely and restores normal drainage flow.
