Child Lock [ ]
Child Lock prevents children from playing with your washer.
Activating the Child Lock function
Press and hold the Spin and Soil Level buttons simultaneously for approximately 3 seconds.
• When you activate the Child Lock function, the “Child Lock [ ]” lamp blinks.
Using the Child Lock function
If the lid is opened when the Child Lock function is on, “ds” is displayed and an alarm sounds.
• If the lid is closed while “ds” is displayed, the alarm sound stops and the information code
turns from ”ds” to “CL”.
• If the water level in the tub is above the safe water level, “ds” is displayed on the LED display
and the washing machine starts to drain water by force after 30 seconds.
• If the water level in the tub is above the safe water level and the Child Lock function is turned
on while the door is open, “CL” is displayed on the LED display even if the power of the
washing machine is turned o and the washing machine drains water by force.
• Even if the power of the washing machine is turned o, if the lid is opened while the water
level in the tub is above the Reset water level, “CL” is displayed on the LED display without
the alarm sounding and the washing machine starts to drain water. When the draining
operation finishes, the power is automatically turned o again.
• After the compulsory drain, the “CL” code display blinks at 1 second intervals and the
product enters the “CL” mode. (When the product is in the “CL” mode, only the Power
button works.)
• To cancel the “CL” mode, you need to turn the power o and then on again.
• To cancel the “ds” mode, deactivate the Child Lock function. To deactivate the Child Lock
function, press and hold the Spin and the Soil Level buttons simultaneously for at least
3seconds.
