Proline dishwasher dwi5212 - door springing up sharply?

[gary1974]

Hi

I've recently installed the above dishwasher - however I've yet to install the kitchen fitted door to the front of it...however - the door wont stay open at the moment and springs up sharply - so much so that I had to hold the door open with my foot to empty it with a test run tonight...I guess adding the door will give it weight and might prevent it - but I just wanted to check and see if this was 'normal'.

Thanks

It's normal. Without the decor door your missing the counterbalance effect.

It's all fine now - however - I cant get the legs to balance so it always tilts slightly when I open the door? Does the door need adjusting - or the legs? I've tried to adjust the back legs as per the manaul - but they hardly move...the front ones move no problem!

It's integrated, it should be secured to the underside of the worktop.
Don't jack the legs up too far, instead, put a cut off of worktop on the floor and fit the dishwasher in place with that as the base.
Securing of the dishwasher will be covered in the installation instructions.

Thanks. Will do that.
