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: Depending upon
the model, if a "Delayed Start" was
programmed, 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" -
button 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.
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 programme 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.
