• Forms an airtight seal around the fresh food door to prevent warm air intrusion
• Helps maintain proper temperature and reduce moisture/condensation near the door opening
• Common failure signs: tears, gaps, warping, brittleness, door not closing flush, persistent condensation
• Air leaks can lead to longer run times or warm spots in the refrigerator

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Soften the new gasket in warm water or with gentle heat to relax folds; do not overheat
