Drawers difficult to open; vacuum effect after closing the door.

Safety first: Do not force drawers aggressively; you may break plastic components.

Steps:

• Wait briefly: After closing the door, wait 30–60 seconds before reopening to allow pressure to equalize.
• Check equalization vent: Some Liebherr models have a small vent or valve; ensure it is not blocked by packaging or ice.
• Gasket lubrication: Lightly wipe the gasket with a food-safe silicone spray to reduce sticking.

Remedy: If drawers remain extremely hard to open, inspect and replace a blocked pressure equalization valve or deformed gasket.
