the end of the cycle, ensuring safety for you and your family while your machine is
operating.
To unlock the door during the cycle

the button. Note: the door will remain locked if the temperature inside the washer is
above 60°C and/or the water level is above the bottom of the door seal (a warning will
be displayed in these circumstances, refer to ‘Before you call for service’).
Simply touch , the machine will pause and the door will automatically unlock if the
conditions inside the washer are safe. The button and time to go will flash on the
screen while the washer is paused. Open the door and remove or add garments. Close
the door and touch to resume the cycle.
Add a Garment (WH7060P, WH8060P models only)
The ‘Add a Garment’ function can be used to interrupt the cycle to add or remove a
garment at anytime during the wash (as long as the wash temperature selected for the
cycle is lower than 60°C). Water in the machine will be drained to a level where the door
can be opened, if necessary. Refer to ‘Wash cycle options’ for more information.
