Electrolux / Washer dryer / BR6
The door stays locked after drying
Explain whether the display shows completion, cooling or an error after drying. Give the time already allowed for the normal release described in the manual. Do not prise the handle or attempt an emergency release without the correct instructions. Tell us about visible water and any unusual heat when requesting advice.
Compare this observation: the machine stops while warm
Stop using the washer dryer if it cuts out while unusually hot or produces a burning smell. Tell us approximately when the interruption occurred and what the display showed. Do not keep resetting it after cooling. The difference between a normal cooling stage and an abnormal stop needs the model and observed sequence.
The fitting is behind a furniture panel.
Describe the panel, plinth and visible surroundings. Leave the appliance fitted; photographs and an access description are enough to begin.

A useful question for the enquiry
Does “the door stays locked after drying” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “the machine stops while warm”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: the fitting is behind a furniture panel. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
