Possible Causes
Warped or worn door gasket, Misaligned door hinges, Cabinet not level, Obstruction between door and cabinet
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit to avoid the compressor cycling while the door is open for extended periods.
Steps:
- Check for obstructions: Ensure shelves or bottles are not protruding and preventing full closure.
- Level the cabinet: Adjust the leveling feet so the Ivation cooler is slightly tilted back, helping the door close firmly.
- Inspect gasket: Look for tears, warping, or hardened sections. Warm the gasket gently with a hair dryer and reshape if slightly deformed. Replace with a Ivation door gasket if badly damaged.
- Adjust hinges: Loosen hinge screws slightly, realign the door so it sits squarely, then retighten.
