How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before attempting manual release. Beware of hot steam or water.

  • Wait a few minutes: Many models delay unlocking until the drum stops and temperature drops.
  • Power reset: Unplug for 5 minutes, then plug back in and try opening the door.
  • Manual release: Use the emergency release tab near the door lock (see E11) to open the door.
  • Inspect latch and handle: Check for broken plastic parts and replace the door handle or lock assembly if worn.
