How do I adjust the door of my SABA CAV1196BK wine cellar?

Question

Accepted Answer

To adjust the door of your SABA CAV1196BK wine cellar and ensure an optimal airtight closure, balancing the appliance is the essential step. Start by checking that the cellar rests on a perfectly flat and horizontal surface. Use a spirit level on top of the appliance to check its alignment. If the appliance is not level, the door may not close properly on the magnetic seals, and cold air leaks may occur.

Next, adjust the two adjustable feet located at the front of the appliance. These feet allow for compensation of floor irregularities. Turn them to raise or lower the cellar as needed, so that the entire unit is perfectly horizontal. Proper balancing ensures correct alignment of the door both horizontally and vertically.

Check the condition of the magnetic seals that border the door. These seals should be clean, flexible, and well-positioned along their entire length. If they are damaged, sticky, or poorly placed, replace or reposition them correctly. A worn or misaligned seal will prevent the door from closing airtight. Regularly clean the perimeter of the door and the seals with a damp cloth.

Close and open the door several times to check that it aligns perfectly with the frame and closes without letting air pass through. The door should close smoothly, without forcing, and remain airtight. If the door rubs, does not align, or does not close properly, check the level of the appliance and the condition of the seals again.

Important: the appliance must be installed on a flat surface. Avoid placing it on an inclined or uneven surface. Also, leave at least 50 mm of clearance on both sides of the appliance to facilitate door opening. If problems persist after these adjustments, we recommend contacting a qualified technician, as more complex hinge adjustments may be necessary.
