The Start/Pause button is used to start, stop or continue the wash program.
If you have started a wash program and wish to stop it for some reason, then press Start/ Pause.
If you press Start/Pause during a spin stage and you want to open the lid, you must wait until the Lid Locked light is ‘OFF’.
Lid Locked
The ‘Lid Locked’ indicator light will be ‘ON’ to advise you when the lid of the washing machine is locked in the closed position. The lid will be automatically locked when the washbowl is spinning during a wash program.
To fill and agitate the lid must be closed, but will not be automatically locked.
If the lid is open and the machine is waiting for it to be closed for the wash program to continue, you will see in the digital display accompanied by ‘beeping’.
Should you need to access the washbowl during spin, press Start/Pause. You will have to wait a short time for the bowl to stop spinning before the lid unlocks and the ‘Lid Locked’ indicator light turns ‘OFF’.
If then you open and close the lid, and the machine is still in a spin stage of the wash program, the lid will lock and the machine will continue to complete the spin stage.
