Is something blocking the door?

Move food packages away from the door. Push bin or shelf back into the correct position. Make sure the crisper cover is pushed in so that the backrests on the supports.  

Do the door gasket(s) seem dirty or sticky?

The gasket(s) needs to be cleaned regularly for the doors to open and close properly. Dirt and other particles can build up on the gasket surface and can cause resistance. Check the door gasket(s) regularly to ensure it is clean and free of food particles.

Is the refrigerator level?

A properly leveled refrigerator will help with the overall proper operation of the refrigerator.  Please refer to your Owner's Manual or Installation Instructions for specific leveling information for your refrigerator. 

1. Using your hand, rotate the brake feet.
2. Turn them counterclockwise till the rollers are off the floor.

Tips for leveling the refrigerator: 

• Use a level to make sure the refrigerator is level from side to side and front to back.
• Check to make sure the floor under the refrigerator is also level; if the floor is not level, shims may need to be used.
