Washer is leaking water from the front during or after a wash cycle

Safety: Unplug the washer and turn off water supply before inspection.

• Inspect the gasket: Open the door and carefully examine the entire circumference of the rubber door seal on your Gram washer. Look for tears, holes, or splits, especially at the bottom.
• Remove foreign objects: Gently pull back the inner lip of the seal and check for coins, bra wires, or other objects lodged between the drum and seal. Remove any debris.
• Check clamps: Verify that the outer metal or wire clamp holding the seal to the front panel is tight and properly seated in the groove. Refit or tighten if loose.
• Detergent use: If you see foam leaking, reduce detergent quantity and use HE (low-suds) detergent suitable for front-loaders.
• Replace gasket if damaged: If the seal is torn or badly worn, it must be replaced. Remove the outer and inner clamps, pull off the old seal, fit the new Gram-compatible gasket in the tub groove first, then on the front panel, and reinstall clamps securely.

After repair, run a short rinse cycle and watch closely for any leaks.
