Control panel lock

You can use the control panel lock to secure the appli-
ance against being operated unintentionally using the con-
trols, and therefore protect persons – primarily children –
from possible hazards resulting from the appliance.
The appliance is equipped with an electric door lock.
If you have activated the control panel lock, this means
that automatic door opening is deactivated.
