    You don't say WHY you would do it that way...
    The build-in pump has a water head of less than a meter, so you would require an additional pump with a water head of at least 3 to 4 meter to bring it up to the suggested waste pipe height.
    That pump should be controlled by a relais that is powered from the same wiring that is feeding the washing machine water pump.

    Success !
