- If nothing else works, the washer door can be opened as follows:
- First check that there is no water left in the machine. If there is any water left and you are unable to run the Drain programme, empty the machine by detaching the drainage hose. This is described under the heading “Checking the Filter and Drainage pump”, in the “Care and cleaning” chapter.
- Ensure that the main power switch is off.
- Open the hatch to the drainage pump, bottom left as shown in the illustration.
- Unfasten the screws holding the red plastic handle in place.
