How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dryer before adjusting hinges or latches.
- Inspect latch and hook: Check the door hook and cabinet catch for wear or damage. Replace worn parts.
- Adjust hinges: Tighten hinge screws and adjust the door so it closes squarely against the cabinet.
- Check gasket compression: Ensure the door seal is not preventing full closure. Replace if deformed.
A secure door is essential for safe operation; replace any damaged components with original Hansa parts.
