This spring is engineered to exert tension on the door hinge, effectively controlling the opening speed of the dishwasher door and preventing sudden drops.
Exercise caution during installation of the door spring, as it is under tension and poses a snapping risk. It is advisable to wear work gloves to ensure safety throughout the process.
