Haier / Washer dryer / BR2
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.
Compare this observation: 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.
Working room is restricted.
Mention the space around the equipment and anything blocking normal access. Do not drag a machine out, loosen a mounting or disconnect pipework to show the fault.
For the Hayes address
Specify Hayes in Bromley, Kent, with the complete BR2 postcode. This avoids confusing the address with other places named Hayes.
Read the identity, not just the badge.
Quote the complete model and serial or service number from a safely visible label. Similar product names can hide different components. If the label is concealed, leave the appliance in place and tell us the model is unknown.

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