5.2 OPENING THE DOOR
The machine is fitted with a safety device that prevents the door from opening while it is working.

2.Make sure there is no water in the tub and that the drum is not moving. Open the door by pressing the “Open door” button on the front panel and pulling it open.
Attention!
•If the washing programme is interrupted, you will have to wait from 3 to 15 minutes, depending on the temperature of the water, before the door opens.
