Possible Causes
Misaligned door hinges, Warped door, Deformed or hardened gasket, Shelves or bottles protruding
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Have someone assist when adjusting doors to prevent dropping.
Steps:
- 1. Check for obstructions: Ensure shelves and bottles are not protruding and interfering with the door.
- 2. Inspect gasket: Look for twisted or compressed sections. Warm the gasket gently with a hairdryer and reshape if minor distortion is present.
- 3. Adjust hinges: On many AEG models, the top and bottom hinges are adjustable. Loosen mounting screws slightly, realign the door so it sits square, then retighten.
- 4. Replace gasket: If the seal is cracked or no longer elastic, replace it with the correct AEG door gasket.
