ADJUSTMENT FOR DOOR ALIGNMENT
The doors are properly adjusted when the top door trim is in a straight,
level line and the gap between the doors is even at the top and bottom. If
adjustments are required, grasp the door handle and loosen the lower
door pivot pin using a ³⁄₈" open end wrench*. Slide the door panel on the
hinge pin until the gap between the upper door trim and upper frame is
even. Retighten the lower door pivot pin*. Repeat this procedure for the
opposite door if needed.
*Note: Upper door pivot pins can also be loosened for adjustment
purposes; however, it is easier to loosen lower pins.

If the tempered glass pane becomes scratched or chipped, it creates a
weakness in the glass which can cause the glass to break when heated.
