Indesit · Washing Machines
This symbol illuminates when the Washing Machine door is locked for safety reasons, typically during a wash cycle or its preparation/post-cycle phase. It prevents the door from being opened while the machine is operating.
Click steps to track your progress.
Wait for the Door Locked Indicator symbol to turn off before attempting to open the door, ensuring the cycle is truly finished and safe.
To open the door during a cycle, press the START/PAUSE button; if the indicator light then turns off, the door can be opened.
If the cycle has recently ended, allow a few moments for the internal mechanisms to disengage the lock and the light to switch off.
