Opening the drum door

Always make sure that the drum

is stationary before reaching into the
machine to remove laundry.
Reaching into a moving drum is
extremely dangerous.

Insert a suitable screwdriver (approx.
4 mm blade) into the opening next to
the door lock and use it to release the
catch. Turning it slightly in an anti-
clockwise direction should release
the door.
