How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before adjusting hinges if tools are required.

Improve door seal:

  • Inspect the door or bin gasket for tears, warping, or hardened rubber. Replace if damaged.
  • Check for ice buildup around the door frame and remove it carefully.
  • Level the unit so the door closes squarely.
  • Adjust hinge screws slightly to realign the door if it is rubbing or not closing fully.
  • After adjustment, close the door on a sheet of paper at several points; you should feel resistance when pulling the paper out, indicating a good seal.
