Buttons and Functions
- If the size of the laundry load is too large and preventing the door from closing shut, give the door a gentle push.
- Opening the Drum Door
1) Opening the door when the power goes out in the middle of the wash or dry cycle:
Once the power is restored, the washer will resume the course that was selected before the power went out. The door will open once
the course is completed.
2) Opening the door during the wash or dry cycle.
If you need to open the door during the wash cycle, pause the washer, select the Spin course, and then press the Start/Pause button.
The door will open automatically once the Spin course is completed. (The door will not open if a cycle has already started.)
To open the drum door during the dry cycle, pause the washer. Once the FA message appears on the LED display, press the Door
Release button () to open the door.
The FA message on the LED display indicates that the dry cycle has been paused or, if the washer has been turned off, that the washer’s
fan has been turned on to protect the washer from heat damage.
- If the power goes out during the wash, rinse, or dry cycle, the inside of the washer may not be safe. Take extra caution if you need to open the
drum door. (If the inside of the washer is still not safe by the time the power is restored, the washer will automatically lock the door.)
