Indesit D63. How can I gain access to the door internals?

I have an Indesit D63 which i beleive has a failed timer/programmer.
I have sourced a replacement timer but I now need to know how to get under the bonnet (or 'hood' if you're in the US!).
I could probably work it out for myself by trial and error but it would be far quicker if I knew what order to take the screws out (and which ones)!

KILL THE POWER!!

Open the door fully flat. You'll see ten screws (five each side) along the sides of the door - remove these screws. As you take the final screws out be ready to catch the front panel as it comes free. Pushing the door shut you'll see that the lower door panel locates also on a series of pegs on the bottom of the control panel. Slide the panel down off these pegs.
To get the control panel off take out the two screws either side of the door catch - you'll need to partially close the door again to gain easy access to these two screws. Open the door flat again and remove the remaining screws around the edge of the upper part of the door. The control panel will now come free.
To get at the timer fixing screws gently lever off the timer knob - it is only held on by friction. The two fixing screws wil now be exposed (careful! they're short and easily dropped).
If you're going to replace the timer be sure to swap the electrical connections ONE AT A TIME so as to be sure they go back into the right places.
As they say in all the good car repair manuals - replacement is the reverse of removal! Put all the screws in loosely first before finally tightening them all - nothing more irritating than having to loosen them all because the last one doesn't line up!
Don't forget to switch it back on again before you test it otherwise you'll wonder why the bl**dy thing doesn't work!
