• Helps ensure a proper seal by replacing warped or damaged paneling that interferes with closure
• Used when transferring original trim, handles, and hardware to preserve OEM fit and look

• Safety first: unplug the appliance or shut off power to avoid electrical risk if removing nearby components
• Many installations require transferring the original handle, trim, insulation, and mounting hardware from the old panel
