The soft-close door mechanism is at the
bottom of the door.

Open the appliance door.
^ Gently remove panel a from the
soft-close mechanism by inserting a
flat-bladed screwdriver into the gap

the door will no longer close
properly and cooling will be
impaired.

With the help of another person, tip
the appliance back slightly.
