How do i change the door seal on a Servis APM6855 fridge freezer?

How do i change the freezer door seal on a Servis APM6855 fridge freezer? The seal is about £60 so I dont want to buy it and find it cant be changed.
Any help appreciated

if you find that the door seal is bonded to the door ,you will have to cut seal away with a stanley knife . some genuine seals need to be rebonded to the door,some however use the channel I discribe below .not sure if your seal is genuine or aftermarket,if you find it to be aftermarket follow instructions in post below.

hi roy,60 quid is well over priced for what is now a obsolete part for your servis.I managed to track one down for you at $34.52 ,from www.apart4u.co.uk .the seal is easy to remove and install .to remove = start in top corner,simply prise seal out of door void locator ,by simply pulling ,you may need to prise out with a sharp knife ,just to get it going.refit new by starting in one corner ,just angle the seal and push flat,you will hear the seal snapping into the door seal channel in the door .if you struggle to refit new use a small amount of washing up liquid . hope this helps.
