How do I effectively use the tilt/slide doors in Little Greenie?
The sliding doors you'll find in the Little Greenie are a marvel of engineering and insulation, but they are unusual and can be a challenge to operate. In this video Lawrence gives you a run down on how it's done.
How to Open the Sliding Doors
To open the door, turn the handle clockwise (from pointing upward) to the horizontal position (pointing to the right). This puts the door into "ventilation" mode where the top of the door tilts inwards slightly allowing air flow.
To fully slide open the door, turn the handle clockwise until the handle points down, then pull the handle toward yourself. The bottom of the door will release and drop inward freeing the door to slide. Now use the smaller handle to pull the door to the right and slide it open.
How to Close the Sliding Doors
To close the sliding door, turn the handle counter-clockwise to horizontal (pointing to the right) and pull the door closed. The door is heavy and and some momentum will assist with the door correctly seating back into place. When done correctly the bottom of the door will drop back into place, tilting the door inward, and leaving the top slightly open in "ventilation" mode.
To fully close the door, turn the handle gently upward (to point straight up) and the door will automatically closed and seal.
