    Greetings Forum Members,
    Series4 VarioPerfect washing machine, after washing the drawer my wife put the liquid compartment in reverse and slid the drawer closed. As you can guess, I am unable to slide it back out. I would like to detach the drawer front, get to the screws and remove the whole drawer from the inside. The question is, can it be done this way, is the drawer front glued on or is it on snaps?
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    You need to remove the top cover and disconnect all the hoses and remove the detergent dispenser.
    Fortunately, it is made up of 2 parts and after separating the 2 halves you will slide out the drawer and by the way you can clean the rain shower or top cover of the dispenser: https://north.pl/karta/komora-pojemnika-na-pr...alki-bosch-wlg24261pl-05,3EZ-J5-C2MM-Y0G.html

    You will sooner break something than take it apart.

    I would try by removing the top of the tray compartment, without removing it from the washing machine.

    Thanks for your reply,
    Unfortunately I can't dismantle the detergent dispenser if there is a drawer in it that I can't remove. If I could detach the drawer front then the whole dispenser together with the locked drawer will be removed from the top and I can disassemble it on the hooks. In the meantime I have managed with a torx bit to unscrew the 3 screws hidden by the drawer, but the drawer front still holds me....

    You are right, Mr Administrator. I have never been a saint and even less do I pretend to be one.
    I apologise to the author of the topic and thank my colleague @mrice for guiding the author to the correct action.

    I have already stated how to break into it. The author must have grasped the problem a long time ago, but he didn't have the grace to mention it anymore, because why should he....

    The suggestion with removing the drawer front is very helpful, but it is not obvious enough to some that I leave a very helpful instructional video on how to go about it and unlock the door:
