Miele 500?

How do I remove the 2 final screws that retain the front panel?
I need to replace the main switch

I can see the screws from the top. It looks as though
the facia inner panel has to come off to reveal the screw heads?

if your machine is a modern type with a single torx head bolt at bottom of doorway you only need to remove this, remove outer 2 screws at bottom of front panel behind kickplate, remove door switch screws and the panel will drop down leaving the top 2 screws still located in their plastic lugs. Cheers
