Ice forming around the door frame or on the front edges of the freezer compartment.

Safety first: Ensure the door remains supported when adjusting hinges.

• Inspect gasket: Look for tears, gaps, or hardened sections. Clean the gasket and door frame with warm soapy water.
• Check for obstructions: Make sure food packages or baskets are not preventing the door from closing fully.
• Adjust leveling: Slightly tilt the freezer back by adjusting front feet so the door closes more firmly.
• Replace gasket: If the gasket is deformed or cracked, replace it with an Ariston-specific door gasket.

When to call a technician: If the door is warped or hinges are damaged, professional adjustment or replacement may be needed.
