13.How to open the door during the cycle of a programme
You can open the door, after having set the washing machine to Pause, provided the following conditions exist:
•the washing machine is not in the heating phase beyond 55°C;
•the level of the water is not high;
If these requirements are met, when you pause the washing machine, the “Door lock” light goes off and the door can be opened.
Should it not be possible to open the door, and should it be absolutely necessary to do so, switch the machine off by turning the selector dial to “Off”.
After approximately 3 minutes, you can open the door.
Pay attention to the level and temperature of the water in the washing machine!
When you close the door to restart the programme turn the dial to the previous programme repeating the options previously selected and press Start/Pause button.

If you had selected the “Rinse hold” option, the
“Rinse Hold” light and the “Door lock” light remain lit to indicate that the door is locked and the water must be drained.

Turn the programme selector dial to Reset “Off” to switch the machine off.
Remove the laundry from the washing machine.
Check whether the drum is completely empty, by rotating it with your hand. The purpose of this is to prevent any items of laundry from remaining accidentally in the drum, where they might get damaged in a subsequent wash (e.g. by shrinking) or bleed colour into another load of laundry.
We advise you to close the water supply tap and disconnect the plug from the socket.
Leave the door ajar in order to air the washing machine.
