Force of Door Seal

If there is a water leakage around the door, the door position may
have shifted and is out of position or the door seal force may need
adjustment. In some cases the door seal needs to be replaced.
Replacing Door Seal
1. Open the door. Remove the door glass with seal from the door
frame by pushing it towards the drum.
2. Remove the gasket from the glass.
3. Place a new seal with a wider groove on the glass, with the
edge up.
4. Place a smooth cord in the groove, completey encircling the
window. Tighten up the margin by the cord and place the door
glass in the door opening. Hold one end of the cord firmly on the
door. Pull the other cord end towards the center of the glass so
the rubber edge can properly fit into it.
5. Apply a small amount of silicone RTV between the door frame
and rubber sealing, in the upper and lower parts of the frame.
Make sure the silicone is not pushed over the door seal edge
when the door is closed. Leave the door closed until the silicone
cures.
IMPORTANT: After replacing the door seal, the door seal pressure
on the door lock side and hinge side may be too high. If this occurs,
run Wash program 1 or Power Wash without any laundry.
Door Will Not Unlock
In an emergency:
IMPORTANT:
Before opening the door, turn off the washer.
Do not open the door if the drum has not completely stopped.
Do not open the door if "TOO HOT" is displayed.
Do not open the door if any part of the washer feels too warm.
Do not open the door if there is water in the drum.
IMPORTANT: A qualified technician must perform a ground leakage
trip function test at least once every 3 months.
If the washer is equipped with a ground leakage trip in the inlet
circuit of the electric switchboard, it must be tested regularly. The
ground leakage trip is very sensitive and helps avoid electric shock
during washer operation.
To test:
Press the ground leakage trip test button while the trip is under
tension. If the trip is functioning, it will shut off.
