This specific refrigerator door gasket (identified by part number W10136732) is designed to form a tight seal around the door, effectively preventing warm air from entering the refrigerator.
For a smoother gasket installation, any folds or wrinkles can be minimized by immersing the gasket in warm water or carefully applying low heat using a hair dryer.
It is advisable to secure perishable items appropriately when replacing the door gasket to prevent any risk of food spoilage.
