New seal on Hotpoint freezer not sealing

[Shaner]

Hi all fitted a new seal to my Hotpoint freezer and there doesn’t seem to be any suction ie not sealing properly ..
Is there anything I should do to help it seal??

You need to position the door via the lower hinge to get it as good as possible,then get your hair dryer heat up the seal giving it a small stretch where it doesn’t contact the cabinet well.
.Switch off and lean it backwards on a wall at 45 when adjusting this well help the door assume it’s best position.
Hopefully it was a genuine seal and not a kit (pants).
Check hinge pins are not worn.
They can take a few days to form correctly,might need a couple of adjustments.
