How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the washer and mop up any spilled water to avoid slipping.

  • Inspect gasket: Open the door and carefully examine the entire rubber bellows for cuts, holes, or mold damage.
  • Clean seal: Wipe the gasket groove and glass door with a damp cloth to remove lint and detergent residue.
  • Check clamps: Ensure the outer and inner metal retaining bands are in place and tight.

If the gasket is damaged, replace it with a Gorenje-specific door seal. This involves removing the front panel or retaining bands and should be done carefully to avoid leaks.
