Power Failure

If there is a power failure the wash cycle will be interrupted,
and the wash programme and functions will be suspended.
When the power is restored, the wash programme and
functions will re-start from the same point and complete the
programme.
During a power failure the water can be drained and the load
can be removed from the machine as follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
The door can be opened approximately 2 minutes after the
power failure.
Do not force open the door.
Switch off the machine both via the programme knob and
the mains power supply. Remove the plug from the mains
power supply socket.
Carefully move the machine so the rear of the machine is
accessible. Please follow the safety precautions which we
recommend under the Safety Notes section of this
manual.
Unclip the drain hose from the rear panel of the machine
and lower the hose into a bowl on the floor. When the
bowl is full raise the end of the drain pipe to a height
higher than the top of the appliance to stop the flow of
water. Empty and replace the bowl and continue draining
the machine until empty.
Once the machine is fully drained of water, clip the hose
to the rear of the machine. Press the door button and
remove the load.
