Questions

  • Can the door of the washing machine be reversed?
  • How do I adjust the swing direction of the door?
  • Why can't I reverse the door of the washing machine?
  • Have the washing machine door open in a different way.

Answers

  • AEG washing machines are equipped with a door hinge on the left side.
  • The door of a washing machine cannot be reversed. The direction in which the door of a washing machine opens cannot be changed due to electrical components in the machine that cannot be moved.
  • To optimise the opening of the door of a washing machine next to a tumble dryer, you can swap the positions of both appliances. 
    The door of the tumble dryer can be adjusted.
    If both doors open away from each other, garments can be easily transferred from one machine to the other.
