LID LOCK

The Phase 7 Intuitive Eco™ Washer uses the same lid lock
that is used on the Phase 6 series 11 & 12 machines. The
difference being is that the lid is now locked for the entire
cycle. A symbol of a padlock will be displayed on the when
the lid lock is activated. Once the spin has completed, the
lock will release and the lid can be opened. To open the lid
during the cycle the START/PAUSE button must be pressed,
the machine will come to a halt, and the padlock symbol will
disappear.
If the lid is left open, the machine will be unable to lock the lid
and the cycle will be halted. The machine will play a tune the
words "Please Close The Lid" will be displayed on the LCD
screen.
•
If the lid-lock fails in the closed position, the locked lid can be forced upwards and out of the
lock. Note: This is the only time in which we would recommend doing this.
•
If the harness is damaged, the complete lid lock assembly will need to be replaced.
If the power supply is cut during the spin cycle, the machine will keep the lid locked until the rotor
has ceased to turn (3 to 10 secs). Only then will it release the lock. The motor is acting like a
generator and allows the lock to stay energized under the bowls inertia.
The chart below shows the stages when the lid is locked.
In a brown out situation, the machine will restart at the start of whatever section of the cycle it was
on and continue the wash. The lid lock would then be reactivated if it happened to be on a spin
cycle.
