Opening the drum door in the event of a power failure

To prevent water from spilling onto the floor, make certain the machine is drained before opening the door.

Turn off the washing machine.

Open the lint trap door and drain off any water as described in the sec- tion on cleaning and care.

Pull down the ring in the upper right corner of the access area, and the door will open.

Always make sure the drum is sta- tionary before reaching in to remove laundry. Reaching into a moving drum is extremely dangerous.

To check water pressure

Place a bucket under the water sup- ply valve.

Turn on the valve.

If 5 liters (1 gal.) of water flows into the bucket in 15 seconds the water press- ure is correct.
