[b] HINGE SPACER
For Door closing adjustment, the Hinge Spacers (clear, colorless plastic plates) may be
provided between the Hinges and cabinet. When removed, the Hinge Spacers must be
reinstalled in the correct position.
When the Door is replaced or the Gasket is often caught in the Door, order the following
parts and replace the Hinge Spacers:
For Upper Hinge: Hinge Spacer (A) 453746-01
For Lower Hinge: No Hinge Spacer is available.
Order the above Hinge Spacer (A),
and drill a 10 mm diameter hole.
[c] LIFT HINGE
To ensure smooth Door closing, the Hinge Shaft employs a Lift
Hinge. If the Hinge makes an abnormal noise or the worn out
Lift Hinge hinders smooth Door closing, apply White Alcom
Grease (white grease used for industrial icemakers). If the Lift
Hinge is severely worn out, replace the Hinge Collar (Lift Hinge)
on both the Door and Hinge sides.
* Apply White Alcom Grease also when the Door is replaced in
the field.
[d] DOOR GASKET
To replace the Door Gasket:
1) Pinch and pull out the Door Gasket from the corners.
2) Push the convex of the new Door Gasket into the concave
of the Door interior. Insert the corners first to facilitate
replacement.
Replacement of the Door or Door Gasket may cause a gap
between the cabinet and the Gasket. To correct this gap,
slightly heat the Gasket with a drier. To avoid melting the
Gasket:
1) Keep the drier at least 100 mm away from the Gasket.
2) Move the drier up and down to heat the entire gap.
