9.2 Emergency Door Opening

In case of power failure or appliance failure,
the appliance door remains locked.
The wash program continues when power is
restored. If the door remains locked in case
of failure, it is possible to open it using the
emergency unlock feature.
Possible Cause
The electronic unbalance detection device has
cut in because the laundry is not evenly
distributed in the drum. The laundry is
redistributed by reverse rotation of the drum.
This may happen several times before the
unbalance disappears and normal spinning
can resume. If, after 10 minutes, the laundry is
still not evenly distributed in the drum, the
machine will not spin. In this case, redistribute
the load manually and select the spin program.
Machine not installed properly.
Transit bolts or packaging not removed.
The load may be too small.
