A:Answer I just press the pause button so long as that 'add garment' light is visible, and doing so will unlock the lid once the unit has come to a stop (loading water, sensing via spin cycle, just started washing, etc). I toss in what I wanted to add and then push the pause button again and locks the lid and starts back up from where I paused it. It's definitely a great feature - especially when you've left the laundry room and see that you dropped a piece of clothing on your way to the laundry room. :)
