Our newish washing machine, an LG F4V309SNE, has a child lock feature which is described as being able to "prevent children from changing cycles or operating the appliance". However, it does not prevent the power button being operated. Can you guess which button Child 2 enjoys pressing in the middle of a 2-hour wash cycle? (An interrupted cycle cannot be resumed.)
Our newish oven, a Hoover H-OVEN 300 HDO8442X, has a child lock which prevents only one of its two ovens from being operated. Guess which oven Child 2 enjoys turning on to maximum just before we leave the house? The manual doesn't refer to this restriction to the child lock, so it may be a defect in our particular oven.
Our oldish cordless landline phone, a Panasonic KX-TGD310E, has a key lock which is turned on by holding the menu button for about 3 seconds. Guess which button Child 2, at age 1, enjoyed pressing for 3 seconds before triumphantly showing his parents?
