Model 20605 Probably very old. First time using it in new home. How do I open the inside door? Is there a latch someplace? Is there a place I can get a manual?
The Asko 20605 washer is an older model indeed, but not as old as you might think, the serial number would indicate it's actual manufactured date but it is in the neighborhood of late 90's early millennium.
Those particular electronic control models have a button on the front which unlocks the door if the power is "on".
For a more detailed explanation I've tried to copy & paste a clip from my service info.
The door can also become "stuck" closed if in-active for a period of time with the door in the closed position as it will stick to the rubber seal around the basket opening. You may need to pull slightly on the door as you push the lock switch to unlock it.
Let me know if this clears up the matter for you and I'll try and assist you in whatever manner I can going forward...if need be.
Thank you for choosing FixYa for your inquiry. Good luck.
