In Case of Emergency
The washing machine features a Fully Auto Restart function.
If the power is shut off part way through a wash, the cycle (wash/rinse/ spin) at the time is memorized, and when power is restored, the same cycle automatically restarts from the beginning.
If the laundry has to be removed in the event of an extended power outage, or in the event of malfunction of the door lock, the washing machine door can be opened as follows :
1.Press the Power button to switch power off (when the power is on in the event of malfunction of the door lock), and disconnect the mains plug.
2.Drain the water in the drum from the drain tube.
ÆÆSee page 19 : Care and Maintenance (Cleaning the drain filter).
3.Pull the emergency release downwards. The washing machine door can be opened and the laundry can be taken out from the drum.
Risk of injury!
Hot water may come out from the drain tube.
