The top an bottom screws are used to raise and lower the door, the left screw is the adjusting screw and the right one is the locking screw. Make sure the right locking screw is tight and allow for 1mm gap between the door and the cupboard when to door is open. You can then adjust the left adjusting screws on both hinges to move the door horizontally or slightly rotate the angle. If you require a bigger adjustment then you may need to slightly release the locking screw on the right.
