Abstract

A method for adjusting a position of a door on a housing of a household refrigeration appliance to change a placement of the door while located on the housing, includes separating a door leaf of the door from a front flange of the housing in a depth direction of the household refrigeration appliance by a gap in a closed state of the door. A tool is inserted into the gap and a readjustment element, which can be accessed through the gap, is readjusted by using the tool in such a way that the position of the door relative to the housing is changed in dependence on the readjustment of the readjustment element. A household refrigeration appliance is also provided.
