Possible Causes
Refrigerator not level, Worn door hinges, Overloaded door bins, Magnetic gasket not sealing
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Use caution when adjusting doors; they are heavy. Have a helper if needed.
Steps:
- 1. Level the unit: Adjust front leveling legs so the refrigerator tilts slightly backward. This helps doors close by gravity.
- 2. Check hinges: Inspect top and bottom hinges for looseness. Tighten hinge screws.
- 3. Door loading: Avoid overloading door bins with heavy items that can cause sagging.
- 4. Gasket check: Ensure the magnetic gasket is clean and making full contact. Replace if torn or deformed.
