The door lock has a push push mechanism that is
either in the latched position, where the strike is in
the cam, or an unlatched position, where the strike
is not in the cam.
When in the locked position, the user can push the
Start/ Pause button which activates a solenoid
causing the door to lock. When the Start/ Pause
button or Cancel button is pushed, the solenoid is
activated again causing the door to unlock. The
solenoid does not require a constant current, but
only an impulse to lock or unlock. If the door lock
is locked when the power goes out, there is a
manual override switch in the back of the door
lock assembly to unlock the door lock. When the
door lock assembly is mounted in the front panel
on the right (when facing the front panel) the
manual override switch lever would need to be
pulled up, and when assembled on the left, the
lever would be pushed down.
There is a child entrapment safety feature that
allows a child to push from the inside of the unit
with less than 15 pounds of force and the door will
open, but only when the door is unlocked.
When in the unlatched position, there is one
electrical and two mechanical features that prevent
the door lock from being able to lock.

The electronic water level sensor is mounted to the
right side panel under the top of the washer and
controls the water level in the washer.
The electronic water level sensor is made up of an
electronic board and a bellow inside a sealed
chamber. The chamber is connected by a hose to
the air bell located at the bottom of the washer
attached to the drain boot. The electronic board
reads the pressure in the bellow and converts it
into an electronic signal. This signal is then sent to
the control board which governs the incoming
water by connecting or disconnecting a neutral line
to the water solenoids.
