Hinge and Gasket Adjustment
It is possible that doors may become out of adjustment in
shipment.
If product is installed slightly "out of level", doors may not
line up properly. Check this BEFORE adjusting hinges.
Door gaskets occasionally compress in shipment. If gasket
does not seal all around, warm slightly with a hair dryer
and pull outward softly until magnet in gasket seals against
cabinet.
To expose concealed door hinge screws, remove plug but
-
tons if present. All hinge sections attached to doors adjust
left or right. Top and bottom cabinet hinges are also adjust-
able in and out. See Figure 34 (shown without cabinet trim).

Step 3: Attach the Overlay Panel to the Door
1. Remove the gasket from the door front. (See Figure
33). Do this by pulling the gasket out of the chan
-
nel that holds it to the door front. This will expose the
clearance holes for mounting the custom overlay panel.
(See Figure 33).
2.
Set the door on the overlay panel and align edges.
(See Figure 33). Clamp panel in position and mark pilot
hole locations. Pick the required pilot hole size from
"Table C" below and drill the pilot holes ensuring not to
drill all the way through the overlay panel.
