The washing machine is not draining the water. It is flashing the following letters on the display unit F05. What could be the problem? I put the spin cycle and still it does not drain the water.

It appears that possibly your water pump has been blocked.
to remove the water from your machine lay the outlet hose down into a bucket until you remove as much as possible.
then you need to check that the pump is not blocked, if you have a filter remove it and clean it, it is normally on the front of the machine, then check that the pump will turn by slowley
turning the fan blade attached to the pump, if you feel any sort of blockage the pump will have to cleaned out
