Lidlock
Your Intuitive has a lidlock, which locks when your machine is spinning. This ensures the lid cannot be opened during hazardous parts of the cycle, providing added safety for you and your family.
A Lidlock symbol (padlock) appears in the corner of the screen when locked (it disappears when unlocked), letting you know at a glance if you can open the lid or not.
In short this means you can open the lid while your Intuitive is filling, agitating, and draining, but not while it is spinning, allowing you to add or remove clothes, dissolve detergent, or to add fabric softener (if you do not want to use the Automatic Fabric Softener Dispenser).
The chart below shows the stages when the lid is locked/unlocked.

If the lid is left open, the machine will be unable to lock the lid, and the cycle will be halted. The machine will beep and a message will appear in the display screen saying “Please close the lid and press START/PAUSE”.
Important!
Do not put anything down the slot in the top deck.
Do not try to disable the lidlock.
Keep children away from the machine especially when you are using hot water as the lid can be opened during fill and agitate.
