Safety features

Lid opening safeguards:
After the programme starts, the appliance lid
is locked.
After the programme ends or during RINSE
STOP, the lid is unlocked.
Depending upon the model, if a DELAYED
START or ENDING TIME was programmed,
then the lid remains unlocked during the
entire waiting period before the start of the
programme.
If the lid is to be opened during the
programme, quickly push the "Start/Pause" -
pushbutton and wait approximately 1 to 2
minutes until the lid safety unlocks.
In order to avoid scalding, the lid remains
locked until the wash water has cooled
down somewhat.
Water safety
During operation, the constant water level
control prevents possible overflows.
Before switching on the machine, check that the mains lead is connected and the tap is
open.
Ensure that all lids are properly closed.
For purposes of safety, it is recommended that the mains cable be unplugged and the
tap closed when the programme has ended.
After a power outage, the programme resumes from the point at which it was broken off.

Safety during spinning
The washing machine is equipped with
a safety feature that can reduce the spin
speed if imbalanced loading occurs.
In this case, the laundry may be insufficiently
spun dry. Evenly distribute the laundry in the
drum and select a new spin cycle.
Protection against foaming over
Too much foam may be produced in your
washing machine during spinning.
In this case, the spinning is stopped and the
machine is drained.
The programme continues. The spin speed
is adjusted and an additional rinse cycle is
performed.
