Door falls down quickly

The door of the dishwasher falls down quickly when opening.

Door springs are set to the wrong weight.

The door springs are correctly adjusted when a half opened door (approx. 45° opening angle) remains in that position when released. If the door drops to the horizontal position, the springs must be tightened. If it springs back up again, the springs must be loosened.

In the case of appliances with a decor panel (built-under appliances) and (fully) integrated appliances, you can adjust the spring to the weight of the door as follows:

The adjustment screws are located at the front right and left in the plinth of the dishwasher.

Balance out the door springs using a screwdriver (TORX T20 or slot 1 x 5.5 mm):

  • Clockwise = tighter

  • Anti-clockwise = looser

In the case of freestanding appliances, a Miele service technician must carry out the work as the appliance must be opened.
