How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the appliance and turn off the water supply.

  • Inspect door seal: Open the door and carefully examine the entire circumference of the rubber gasket for tears, holes, or splits, especially at the bottom.
  • Remove debris: Clean out coins, bra wires, or lint trapped in the folds of the seal.
  • Check retaining bands: Ensure the inner and outer metal or wire clamps are tight and properly seated in their grooves.
  • Replace gasket if damaged: Remove the outer clamp, peel off the old seal, fit a new Zanussi-compatible door gasket, and refit both clamps securely.
  • Use correct detergent: Use HE detergent in the recommended quantity to avoid excessive foam that can leak past the seal.
