Lid lock
Your washer has a lid lock, which locks when
your machine is spinning. This ensures the lid
cannot be opened during hazardous parts of
the cycle, providing added safety for you and
your family.
The LID LOCK light (above the START/PAUSE
button) comes on when the lid is locked to tell
you when you cannot open the lid. In short it
means you can open the lid while your washer
is filling, agitating and draining, but not while it
is spinning.
When the LID LOCK light is on, the lid is locked.
When the LID LOCK light is off, the lid is not
locked and the lid can be opened.
If the LID LOCK light is flashing, the lid lock is
in the process of locking or unlocking (ie while
the machine’s bowl slows down or START/PAUSE
has been pressed). During this stage the lid still
cannot be lifted.
Important!
If the lid is left open, the machine will be unable to lock and the cycle will be halted.
The machine will play a tune and the LID LOCK light will flash until the lid is closed and
START/PAUSE is pressed.
The lid lock remains unlocked for the majority of the cycle allowing you to add clothes,
dissolve detergent or to add fabric softener (if you do not want to use the Automatic Fabric
Softener Dispenser).
The chart below shows the stages when
the lid is locked.
Fill Unlocked
Agitate Unlocked
Spray Rinse Locked
Deep Rinse Unlocked
Spin Locked
Important!
Keep children away from the machine, especially when you are using hot water, as the lid can
be opened during fill and agitate.
DO NOT put anything down the lid lock slot in the top deck of your machine.
DO NOT try to disable the lid lock.
