Aeg Dishwasher door popping open

[subs]

These are the numbers I have,
Favorit 88010vi 911b93
When the machine starts to wash, the pressure of the water seems to push the top rack against the door and if you watch it from outside you can see the door under pressure to open. Eventually it pops open during the cycle.
When I was there I adjusted the metal wire hook that the door latches onto and it seemed to work. The latch within the door seemed ok. It’s now popping open again.
Apart from changing the latch/catch within the door, has anyone got any ideas?
Anyone come accross this problem before. I had same problem on a Lamona (Beko) intergrated dishwasher before and could not stop it doing it but I think that was down to the fact that the door had been alowed to slam down over a period of time due to the fact that the door tension cords had broken. This machine is quite new.

Any Help Please

Door seal or bottom seal may be swollen, I’ve replaced both seals which cured problem on A.E.G dishwasher previously. But you need to inspect hinges also, if excessive load was applied to open door, like a child standing on it for instance it may push hinge in too far & cause it to be too tight at bottom, it would take very little to force it open.
