Drive screws straight and flush. Protruding screw heads will 
scratch the top of the control panel and can interfere with 
door closing. If the gap is less than 10 mm between control 
panel and the screws, suggest to chose method 2 .

Check to be sure that door spring does not rub or contact 
the fill hose or water supply line. Test by opening and 
closing the door. Re-route the lines if a rubbing noise or 
interference occurs.
