Power Failure
If there is a power failure the wash cycle will be
interrupted, and the wash programme and
functions will be suspended. When the power is
restored, the wash programme and functions will
re-start from the same point and complete the
programme.
During a power failure the water can be drained
and the load can be removed from the machine
as follows:
1.
Switch off the machine both via the
programme knob and the mains power
supply. Remove the plug from the mains
power supply socket.
2.
Carefully move the machine so the rear of
the machine is accessible. Please follow the
safety precautions which we recommend
under the Safety Notes section of this
manual.
3.
Unclip the drain hose from the rear panel of
the machine and lower the hose into a bowl
on the floor. When the bowl is full raise the
end of the drain pipe to a height higher
than the top of the appliance to stop the
flow of water. Empty and replace the bowl
and continue draining the machine until
empty.
4.
Once the machine is fully drained of water,
clip the hose to the rear of the machine.
Open the door and remove the load.
The door can be opened approximately 2 minutes
after the power failure.
Do not force open the door.
