You can manually release the door lock by taking off the dispenser assebly holder (bezel) on the top, left, and pulling on the door lock release cord you will find inside.

I thought i would just add an extra little tip.Sometimes the door lock which is fastened against the body with two or thre screws (Varies on diff models)
gets loose from years of use and vibration, then the lock moves erratically as the door closes thus causing it to not not lock and then suddenly lock.Switch the machine off at the wall plug and examine the lock as you wish and make sure that the screws securing it are tight(You may have to realign the lock to make sure that the tongue of the latch clicks into the lock properly) Once you have done this turn the timer to the beginning of the cycle or reset (Electronic models) to the beginning then switch on the wall plug and start the machine, It should lock and release properly now. Good luck
