Possible Causes
Cabinet not level, Loose or bent door hinges, Warped door gasket, Shelves or bottles interfering with closure
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit before adjusting hinges to avoid accidental fan or compressor start.
- Level the cabinet: Adjust the front leveling feet until the cooler leans slightly back so the door naturally closes.
- Check for obstructions: Ensure shelves are fully seated and bottles are not protruding and hitting the door.
- Inspect hinges: Tighten hinge screws at the top and bottom of the door. If the door sags, loosen the screws slightly, realign the door, and retighten.
- Examine gasket: Look for twisted or compressed sections. Warm the gasket gently with a hair dryer and reshape it by hand to improve sealing. Replace if torn or permanently deformed.
