Left Door Closure

New unit. Left door doesn't pull closed snugly, so door alarm beeps unless you shove it hard. Is it adjustable?

There's nothing in the manual referring to door adjustment. Unless the top hinge holes are misaligned you should just raise the front of the frig by adjusting the the leveling legs. This should allow gravity to close it enough for the magnetic seals to seal the door closed. If not call the vendor about the issue or call the warranty service # in the back of the manual.
