Opening the door after the programme has
started
First set the machine to pause by pressing the
Start/Pause button.
If the «Door» light flashes and after 2 minutes
goes off, the door can be opened.
If the «Door» light does not flash, this means
that the machine is already heating, that the
water level is above the bottom edge of the
door or that the drum is turning.
In this case the door can not be opened.
If you cannot open the door but you need to
open it you have to switch the machine off by
turning the selector dial to «Off».
After about 2 minutes the door can be opened
(pay attention to the water level and
temperature!).
At the end of the programme
The machine stops automatically. The
Start/Pause and «wash» lights go off and the
«end» phase light illuminates. The door can be
opened (the Door light is off).
If the «Rinse Hold» option has been selected,
the «end» and «door» lights illuminates but the
door remains locked to indicate that the water
must be emptied out before opening the door.
To empty out the water please read the steps
on the Rinse Hold option paragraph.
Turn the programme selector dial to «Off» to
switch the machine off. Remove the laundry
from the drum and carefully check that the
drum is empty.
If you do not intend to carry out another wash,
close the water tap. Leave the door open to
prevent the formation of mildew and
unpleasant smells.
