There are 2 different functional groups on the nitrogen containing molecule. The left side is an amine and the right side is an amide. As stated in the solution, the amide portion has resonance and does not react in this addition elimination reaction. Only the amine portion reacts, water is eliminated and the imine is formed.
Hope this helps.
