Each program in the washing machine is executed for a certain time. But there are situations when the user urgently needs to stop the washing process. Most often, after loading, a thing is found that also needs to be washed. Or you understand that you did not empty your pockets of trifles, keys and other items. A small part stuck in the drum is able to completely stop the operation of the AGR.
How to save the situation
If you need to get some thing from the drum or you mistakenly set the wrong mode, you need to know how to cancel the program on the washing machine. Follow general guidelines.
First option. In many SM models, the “Start” key also performs the “Pause” function. Press the button once to stop operation. After waiting a little while the door lock is unlocked, you can report linen or pull out a forgotten item.
When opening the door, make sure that the washer has not collected water, otherwise it will spill onto the floor. If water has reached a significant level, then it must be drained using a drain filter.
The second option. A complete reset of the washing machine program is also performed by pressing the “Start” or “Pause” key. In this case, hold the button for 5 seconds. This way you can reset the error on the Bosch washing machine. Depending on the settings of the washer, you will get the following result:
- Water drained, the door unlocked.
- The water did not drain, but the castle still unlocked.
If there is a lot of water in the tank, drain it through the filter. To do this, open the small sunroof at the bottom of the front panel. Behind it is a filter. Replace the container and unscrew the filter.
Power outage
It happens that during operation, the washing machine shuts off electricity. Or the users themselves decided the question of how to reset the errors and stop the machine by disconnecting from the network. This approach is unacceptable, as is the disconnection of the voltage supply in principle. Modern models are equipped with a memory, which, after supplying electricity, allows you to resume settings. But in earlier washers there is no such function - if you do not want to get problems with the electronic module, use other ways to stop the AGR.
Individual approach
There are certain models of machines in which the manufacturer has provided special ways of an emergency stop. Consider how to reset a program on an Indesit washing machine. Depending on the selected model, the pause or stop button of the program may be indicated by a rhombus. Therefore, hold the key for a few seconds.
- Another option is to turn the mode selector switch to its original position. If there is still water in the drum, activate the spin or drain mode.
Carrying out the indicated actions, pay attention to whether the LEDs on the control unit are on. If nothing happened, an error probably occurred.
How to reset program settings on the washing machine LG, Samsung, Ariston? Earlier models were equipped with a toggle switch for selecting modes, and they did not have the “Start” and “Stop” buttons. To start the zeroing of the washing machine program, return the toggle switch to its original position.
Then follow these steps:
- Hold the On / Off key for five seconds.
- After 30 seconds, restart the washing machine by turning on the desired program.
If you need to open the door, after stopping the program, drain the water from the tank, otherwise the hatch will not unlock.
Basically, the recommendations relate to washing machines of earlier years of release. In modern SM models, when you press the "Reset Program" key, the water is drained independently.
SMA hung
How to reset the program when the system is “frozen” and the keys do not respond to keystrokes? Reboot will help. To do this, unplug the machine for 15-20 minutes. Now plug in and try to run the program again. Now you know how to restart the machine. If you want to return the washing machine to its factory settings, you may need the help of a wizard, because you have to work with electronics. But such situations arise infrequently, so try to restart the washer first to cope with the critical situation yourself.
