This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.

Water draining straight out from lower left hose due to missing emergency drain hose bung

The problem

During filling, water ran straight back out through a small hose at the bottom left next to the drain filter. The machine worked normally once the hose was temporarily plugged.

Likely cause

The hose was identified in the discussion as the emergency drain hose. The accepted reply stated it should be closed with a bung/stopper, so the supported diagnosis is that the bung was missing or not fitted.

What fixed it

Check the emergency drain hose next to the drain filter and refit the correct bung/stopper if it has come off or gone missing. The poster said they would look for the missing bung. The exact final repair was not explicitly confirmed beyond the temporary cork plug.

Checks to try

• Observed water escaping from the hose at the bottom left next to the drain filter during fill
• Temporarily plugging the hose stopped the leak and the washer then worked normally
• Accepted reply identified the hose as the emergency drain hose and said it should have a bung or fit onto a nearby plastic stopper

Parts or tools mentioned

• bung/stopper for the emergency drain hose
• cork used temporarily
