When replacing the refrigerator door seal, you must take into account the sagging of the seal that arrives as a spare part during storage. When replacing the seal, it is usually always necessary to sensitize and reshape the seal so that it fits snugly between the door and the frame. The new seal is installed on the door and then the door is closed. Let's examine which parts of the gasket need to be shaped. the part to be shaped is gently heated with, for example, a hair dryer and the sealant is stretched in the desired direction. the door is closed and the seal is allowed to settle into its new shape at least overnight with the cabinet door closed. This procedure usually requires a bit of experience, so we recommend using an appliance fitter to replace the seal.
