5. Setup and Installation

Replacing the door sealing ring requires careful attention. While the design is user-friendly, if you are unsure, consult a qualified technician.

General Installation Steps:

1. Preparation: Unplug the washing machine from the power supply. Clear the area around the washing machine door.
2. Remove Old Seal: Carefully locate and remove the retaining clips or springs that hold the old sealing ring in place. Gently pull the old sealing ring away from the drum and door frame. Note its orientation.
3. Clean Area: Clean any residue, mold, or debris from the groove where the sealing ring sits on both the drum and the door frame. Ensure the surface is dry.
4. Install New Seal: Position the new sealing ring, ensuring it is correctly oriented. Start by fitting one section into the groove, then work your way around, gently pushing it into place.
5. Secure Seal: Reattach any retaining clips or springs that were removed. Ensure the new sealing ring is seated firmly and evenly all around.
6. Final Check: Close the washing machine door and check for any gaps or misalignments. The seal should appear flush and secure.

For detailed, model-specific instructions, refer to your washing machine's original service manual or a reputable online resource for your specific Daewoo model.

6. Operating Instructions (Post-Installation)

After installing the new door sealing ring, perform a test run to ensure proper function and leak prevention.

1. Reconnect Power: Plug the washing machine back into the power outlet.
2. Initial Test Cycle: Run a short wash cycle (e.g., rinse and spin) without any laundry.
3. Leak Inspection: During and after the test cycle, carefully inspect the area around the washing machine door for any signs of water leakage. Pay close attention to the bottom of the door.
4. Noise Check: Listen for any unusual noises during operation. The new seal should contribute to quieter performance.
5. Door Closure: Ensure the door closes and latches securely and smoothly.

If any issues are observed, refer to the Troubleshooting section or re-check the installation steps.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance of the door sealing ring can extend its lifespan and prevent issues.

• Regular Cleaning: After each wash cycle, wipe down the sealing ring with a clean cloth to remove any water, detergent residue, or lint. This prevents mold and mildew buildup.
• Deep Cleaning: Periodically, clean the sealing ring more thoroughly using a mild detergent solution or a washing machine cleaner. Pay attention to the folds and crevices.
• Ventilation: Leave the washing machine door slightly ajar after use to allow the drum and sealing ring to air dry, preventing moisture buildup.
• Inspect for Damage: Regularly inspect the sealing ring for any cracks, tears, or signs of wear. Early detection of damage can prevent leaks.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals on the sealing ring, as they can degrade the rubber material.
