HOW DO I REMOVE DOOR SEAL ON ARISTON 1635?

IS IT POSSIBLE FOR ME TO REMOVE THE DOOR SEAL ON MY ARISTON 1635 WASHING MACHINE TO ALLOW FOR THOROUGH CLEANING? IT TRAPS AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF DIRT AND GRIME.

if you really want to.....Undo the fixing (spring, twisted wire or plastic locking band) which attaches the seal to the outside shell and detach doorseal from outer machine shell. Power off, Remove the machine top, push drum towards the rear of machine and look down to where the doorseal attaches to the drum - you should seen another clamping band. Unscrew this inner drum clamping band and pull the doorseal away. Fitting the new seal is a bit like fitting a bicycle tyre on a new rim but on a bigger scale.Ensure the seal is located correctly and refit both outer and inner clamping devices. Some manufacturers in their wisdom bung the seal beneath a concrete balance weight in the front of the drum.....Jeez. If seal is obstructed by concrete weights the front panel and the concrete weight will have to be removed before seal can be detached.
