Your washing machine does not start immediately after switching it on - but it begins to fill water only after 15-20 seconds, that is the time needed for the electric door locking.

Spinning has an interrupted start-up - the drum starts and stops running several times - it is so called interval spinning with an increased spinning efficiency. If you set the spinning speed knob to the washing machine will stop before the final spinning and the laundry stays floating in water.
