TROUBLESHOOTING CONT.

Door gasket not sealing correctly

If the cabinet’s cooling system is running continually without reaching the

desired temperature, the problem may lie with the door gaskets not seal-

ing correctly.

Examine the door gasket around the entire unit.

You can also check this by turning on the cabinet’s interior light and turn-

ing o the lighting in the room. Determine if there is an area that is not

sealing properly.

If a problem exists, use the following guidelines to resolve

the problem:

• Heat up the gasket with a hair dryer while using your

 ngers to pull the gasket outward, using caution while

the gaskets may be hot. Doing this for several minutes will

loosen the gasket material and increase its exibility.

• Close the door and determine if the magnetic strip within

the gasket will seal with the metal strip on the door.

• Repeat steps until gasket seals correctly. Once it has reseat-

ed itself, leave the doors closed for two to three hours. The

seal should retain the new shape after this process.

Door realignment

The door can be adjusted by loosening the three Allen head

bolts (easier done from the outside), securing the top and bot-

tom pivot hinges through slotted mounting holes and moving

the hinge(s) in the appropriate direction. Re-tighten the bolts

after the adjustment is completed only after checking the level

of the cabinet.

How to correct a warped door

Leave the door open to expose both door surfaces to the same

outside condition for 24 to 48 hours. To accelerate the process,

wet the contracted (dry) door panel with a damp towel or

sponge and allow drying with both door sides exposed.

How to prevent future warpage

Thoroughly seal both sides of a straight door with two coats of

high quality moisture proof wood sealant to prevent any further moisture exchange.

Never seal a warped door, as it might be impossible to correct the condition after treatment. Vi-

nothèque is not responsible for reversible moisture induced warpage of un nished doors or for door

stained, and/or sealed after shipment from the factory.

Unnished wood cabinets are NOT warranted against warpage
