Door gaskets
This chapter deals with the importance of a well-functioning door gasket.
Gaskets are an important part of a refrigerator/freezer. Gaskets with reduced
functionality, reduces the tightness of the cabinet. Reduced tightness might cause
increased humidity, internal icing, an iced up evaporator (leading to reduced refrigeration
capacity), and in worst case reduced lifecycle of the cabinet.
Therefore it is important to be aware of the condition of the gasket. Regular
inspection is recommended.
The gasket should be cleaned regularly with a mild soap solution.
If a gasket needs replacement, contact your supplier.
Long term storage
If the product is taken out of operation, and need to be prepared for long-term storage,
clean the inside compartment, the door and door gasket thorougly with a hot soapy damp
cloth.
Eventual remnants of food could create mould.
