Checking Door Alignment -
Échelon Models
The unit’s door is aligned at the factory before shipment.
However, its alignment could have been disturbed during
shipment or during door panel installation.
IMPORTANTIMPORTANT
Properly aligned, the door should be 1/8" below the
top of the unit’s cabinet, NOT flush with the top
(Figure 5).
Figure 5
1. Compare the top edge of the door to the top edge of
the cabinet.
2. If the door edge is 1/8" below and parallel to the top of
the cabinet, it is adjusted correctly. If it is not, note
whether the side opposite the hinge needs to be moved
UP or DOWN, and use the following procedure.

NOTE: If door is adjusted correctly, but panel is not square
with the adjacent cabinets, slight adjustments can be
made by drilling the holes in the vinyl-coated steel panel
slightly oversized (Figure 6).
