Can you ruin a washing machine by doing this?

Can you ruin a frozen up washing machine by trying to run it? Does that hurt it? Does it destroy it?

I’d imagine it’s a strain. Let it thaw out then try again. Running water will help. I’m no expert. I’m confused by snow because I live in a tropic climate!

Thank you. That is what I wanted to know.

Appliances can operate when cold, but if there is frozen water in it, I would heat the room and let the ice thaw.
