Door Alignment and Adjustment
Align and adjust the door if it is not level, or is not sealing properly. If the door is not sealed the unit may not cool properly, or
excessive frost may form in the interior.
• Properly aligned, the door’s gasket should be firmly in contact with the cabinet all the way around the door (no
gaps). Carefully examine the door’s gasket to ensure that it is firmly in contact with the cabinet. Also make
sure the door gasket is not pinched on the hinge side of the door.
• The door will not be flush with the top of the cabinet. The top edge of the door will be 1/8 in. (3.175 mm)
below the cabinet top.
To align and adjust the door:
1. Compare the top edge of the door (opposite the hinges) to the top edge of the cabinet and note the type (up or down) of
adjustment needed.
2. Remove the top hinge pivot pin with a Phillips screwdriver and lift door off bottom hinge pin. Be careful not to lose the door
closer insert sets.
3. Turn the door upside down and inspect the hinge plate mounting holes. The plate has slotted mounting holes. Loosen but do
not remove the two hinge plate screws(1).
4. If door edge opposite the hinges needs to move up, move plate toward outside of door(2). If door edge needs to move down,
move plate toward inside of door(3). Repeat until top edge of door is parallel with top of cabinet and tighten screws (1) securely.
