Bosch Classixx Dishwasher?

I used my door to try and pull my dishwasher out (a big mistake I know) and pulled the hinges out which mean the door wouldn't shut. I used a chair to prop the door shut whilst I went on the internet, moved the chair forgetting the door wouldn't shut and the door then fell on the floor totally dislocating the hinges. Does anyone know how I can re-set the spring and get the door back on again please?

You didn't mention whether it was an integrated machine or free standing, i will presume it is free standing, if not come back to me for integrated instructions..... To relocate the hinges it is probably best to take off the spring tension to make it easier,remove the top (2 plastic clips at rear and slide forward), remove both side panels (2 screws on front edge both sides), remove both plastic blocks attached to cords from the hinge arms,(will be under spring tension), remove the outer door panel so you can see the hinges better,raise the door and and relocate it on the hinge pins,(check that the horse shoe shaped plastic bearings are still in the hinge arms on the door and are not broken, they fit over the hinge pins on the machine, if so replace them, then replace all of above. You aren't the first one to do this and won't be the last! cheers
