Problem solving guide
Opening the drum door in the
event of a power failure
Switch off the washing machine.
Open the fluff (drain) filter flap and
drain the water as described in
"Cleaning and care", (fluff (drain) fil-
ter and pump).
Caution: if laundry has been
washed at a high temperature,
water draining out of the machine
will still be hot.
Pull the emergency door latch down-
wards (see illustration). The machine
door will then open.
Always make sure the drum is sta-
tionary before reaching in to the ma-
chine to remove washing. Reaching
into a moving drum is extremely
dangerous.
