Possible Causes

Misaligned door, weak or missing door magnet, faulty door switch, warped door gasket preventing full closure

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: No internal electrical work is required for basic checks, but unplug the unit if removing door trims.

Steps to address d1:

  • Check door closure: Ensure the door closes fully and latches magnetically. Look for items or shelves preventing full closure.
  • Inspect gasket: Run a thin strip of paper around the door seal; if it pulls out easily in spots with the door closed, the gasket may be warped or compressed. Replace if necessary.
  • Verify door alignment: Check that the door is level and square with the cabinet. Adjust hinges if the door is sagging or rubbing.
  • Check door magnet and sensor: Confirm the magnet is present in the door edge and aligned with the sensor in the frame. Replace missing magnet or faulty sensor as needed.
  • Reset alarm: After correcting mechanical issues, close the door firmly and allow the alarm to reset. If d1 persists, test and replace the door switch.
