Do you want to take clothes out of the washing machine, but the door won’t open? This means the lock is locked. How to open a locked car door yourself? You will learn the answer to this question from this article.
The first case is not even a breakdown, but a common precaution that is used when washing. If your washing machine is washing clothes right now, then it is natural that for safety reasons the hatch door will automatically lock in the closed position. And if for some reason you urgently need to unlock the hatch, you will have to first interrupt the operation of your household appliances. You may also need to turn off the machine.
Another option, which is not a malfunction, but rather a shortcoming of some models, is the hatch being blocked due to an unexpected power outage. This sometimes happens in our country. Nothing particularly bad happened to the machine. And in order for it to open its door again, you will need to start a program for spinning the laundry, as well as draining the water. This should help.
The third case again does not need repair, since this is again not a breakdown. And a natural feature of the operation of this type of household appliances. More specifically, it is that the washing machine does not allow you to remove washed clothes for some time after washing. For most of these models, this time is limited to three minutes. Although, they say, there are also washing machines that are blocked for 5 minutes after washing. Therefore, in this situation, you should not sound the alarm, but simply wait calmly. And as soon as the automatic locking time has expired, you must try to open the hatch again.
