Indicator '---' (door lock) + flashing running phase indicator

Indicator '---' (door lock) and flashing running phase indicator — Water not drained

Electrolux · Washing Machines

What does Indicator '---' (door lock) + flashing running phase indicator mean?

If a programme finishes but the water has not been fully drained (e.g., due to a 'Rinse Hold' option), the door lock indicator will remain on, the running phase indicator will flash, and the display might show other indicators related to the unfinished draining or rinsing phase.

Common Causes

  • A programme or option was selected that leaves water in the drum.
  • The final drain cycle was not completed successfully.
