Freezer door is difficult to close or pops open slightly after being shut.

Safety first: Ensure the freezer is unplugged if you are adjusting hinges or removing the door.

• 1. Remove obstructions: Check that baskets and food packages are not protruding and preventing full closure.
• 2. Adjust hinges: Slightly loosen hinge screws and realign the door so it sits squarely on the cabinet. Retighten securely.
• 3. Check gasket: Inspect for swelling or deformation. Warm the gasket gently with a hair dryer and reshape it against the cabinet if needed.
• 4. Vacuum effect: A slight resistance when reopening the door shortly after closing is normal due to pressure equalization. Wait a minute before reopening.
