of play on plastic closing plates when rear doors are
closed. To adjust, loosen door hinges and raise or
lower complete doors.

top closing wedge up against plastic closing plate free
of play with rear door closed and tighten screws to 10
N´m (89 in. lbs.).

the retaining magnets should run up to the middle of
the mating plate at the side wall. If this is not the
case, correct as listed. (Fig. 11)
