DOOR ALIGNMENT AND ADJUSTMENT
Align and adjust the door if it is not level or not sealing properly. If
the door is not sealed, the unit may not cool properly, or excessive
frost or condensation may form in the interior.
NOTICE
Properly aligned, the door's gasket should be fi rmly in contact
with the cabinet all the way around the door (no gaps). Carefully
examine the door's gasket to ensure that it is fi rmly in contact
with the cabinet. Also make sure the door gasket is not pinched
on the hinge side of the door.

CAUTION
Do not attempt to use the door to raise or pivot your unit. This
would put excessive stress on the hinge system.
