How do I get my indesit washing machine out of demo mode?

Model wixe 127 Indesit washing machine.It is only 5 weeks old

Today it decided for no apparent reason to go into demonstartion mode - it flashes 'DE no' whike going through a short cycle which doesn't involve puttin any water in.
I can't get it to switch on to any other program . I have made several phone calls to retailer and have followed the instuctions they have given me to get it out of demo mode (different with each phone call!) but a still getting the same problem. Helpline is now closed so any help would be much appreciated.
