Possible Causes
Bent hinges, Loose mounting screws, Incorrectly installed furniture panel, Leveling feet misadjusted
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power before adjusting installation.
- 1. Check leveling: Use a spirit level to ensure the dishwasher is level side-to-side and front-to-back. Adjust the front and rear feet as needed.
- 2. Tighten mounting screws: Secure the dishwasher to the cabinet or worktop using the correct brackets. Tighten any loose screws.
- 3. Inspect hinges: Open the door and check hinges for bending or distortion. Replace if visibly damaged.
- 4. Adjust furniture panel: On integrated models, loosen the panel mounting screws and realign the panel so it does not interfere with closing.
