How to fit this?

Hi there, i bought this item White Washing Machine Door Handle Kit (ES835853). However it didnt come with any instructions. Also I didnt see how the old handle was fitted before. The problem I have now is that the catch is loose and isnt catching the door lock so the machine wil not start. I know this sounds ridiculous but i am an engineer!! (electrical) Just cant figure it out. The hook part of the latch is facing away from the centre, however it is loose and free to move on the pin (the way I have fitted it anyway!) PLEASE HELP!

    The correct link to the video for unlocking the door is: http://www.espares.co.uk/advice/7/1294/how-to-open-a-washing-machine-door-thats-stuc This has also been added to the part. Note: It may be easier and safer to release the door from above by removing the top.
