Front loader door won't open?

I have an Ariston front loader washer/dryer and the door handle appears broken so the door cannot open. Is there a manual switch or something to open it. It's Sunday I have heaps of washing to do and no repairman.

Ariston Household Appliances, Washing Machines Open Handle Broken

Thanks this worked the door opened. Then we shut it again and couldn't open again, so again opened up the machine and pushed the door open. What can be done to permanently resolve the problem?

It's worth mentioning the to push the peg in and to the left, (if you are facing the door of the machine).

If it's a Margherita take off the top and locate the door switch inside. On the back of the switch is a small rectangular hole where you will find a black plastic peg. Use a small screwdriver to push this into the switch body at the same time as you pull the door handle. Ensure its unplugged at the mains when you do this.
