How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug before adjusting hinges.

  • Check for sag: Observe the gap around the door. If it is wider at the top or bottom, hinges may be loose or bent.
  • Tighten screws: Access the hinge mounting screws (often behind the outer cover or trim) and tighten them carefully.
  • Inspect hinges: If hinges are visibly bent or worn, replace them with Gorenje-compatible hinge parts.
  • Seal check: Ensure the door gasket is seated correctly and not folded or damaged.
