Abstract (en)

The present invention is related to a washing machine (16), preferably of the front-loading type, with the control and indicator panel provided on the loading door (1) and which can be monitored from a remote distance. The loading door (1) comprises one or more than one transparent pieces comprising the illuminating, controlling parts and equipment. Required symbols are marked on said pieces, using various printing techniques. Parts that are not desired to be shown are covered, again preferably by using printing techniques or by painting. Said loading door (1) is connected to the cabinet by a hinge (6) and the lighting, controlling parts and equipment can be connected to the required points by means of the hinged region and of the electrical cables (26) in the protecting hose (3). The handle (5) on the frame provides the locking of the loading door (1) and may be detached from the machine after locking, so that it can remotely control the programs by means of the buttons and monitors/controls the program steps by means of the light indicators (15); thus the user is enabled to control and monitor the machine remotely.
