Can't open the door after washing is finished
If the door of your BALAY washing machine cannot be opened after the wash cycle is finished, it may be because the childproof lock is activated or the machine has not fully drained. Check the display panel for any lock symbols or indicators. If the machine is still full of water, a blockage may be preventing drainage. Press the Start/Reload button to see if the door unlocks.

What is the symbol Flot for?
The "Flot" symbol on a BALAY washing machine refers to a function that keeps clothes floating in water after the final rinse. This prevents them from getting creased if you are not there to remove them immediately when the cycle ends.
