F&P actually asks you in their manual to UNPLUG the machine
F&P smart drive top loaders don't have a physical on/off switch - the power button is a signal to the computer, it doesn't cut power itself.
Remember that in New Zealand (where F&P originate) and Australia (their biggest market for years, where they absolutely dominate Top Loader sales) all power outlets have a switch, so it is normal here to switch off at the wall when the cycle is finished.
For the US market they probably had to change the user manual to say unplug instead of switch off.
