• Warm the gasket (soak in warm water or use low heat) to relax it before installation
• Press the gasket fully into the channel/retainer, ensuring corners are completely seated
• Check for uniform contact all around; adjust door alignment if needed and allow up to 24 hours for the gasket to conform
