REFRIGERATOR INSTALLATION

CLOSING AND ALIGNING THE DOORS

Closing the Doors

Your refrigerator has two front leveling screws, one on

the right and one on the left. If your refrigerator seems

unstable or if you would like the doors to close more

easily, simply adjust the inclination of the refrigerator by

following the instructions below:

1. Plug the refrigerator into a 3 prong grounded outlet.

Move the refrigerator into its final position.

2. Remove the base grille (Refer to the section on

“Installation of Base Grille”).

3. Use a flat head screwdriver to adjust the leveling screws,

turning clockwise to raise the side of the refrigerator

and counter-clockwise to lower it. It may take several

turns to adjust it to the inclination you would like.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the

refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws.

This will make it easier to adjust the screws.

4. Open both doors again and check to make sure that

they close easily. If not, slightly tilt the refrigerator

further back by turning both leveling screws clockwise.

It may take several more turns. Make sure that you turn

both leveling screws the same amount.

5. Ensure that the refrigerator is even by using a level.

6. Replace the base grille.

NOTE: Your new refrigerator is uniquely designed with

two fresh food doors. Either door can be opened or

closed independently of one another. You may have

to exert slight pressure on doors to get them to close

completely.

Aligning the Doors

If the spacing between the doors is uneven, follow the

instructions below to align them:

1. With one hand, lift up the door you want to raise at

middle hinge.

2. With other hand, use pliers to insert snap ring as

shown.

3. Insert additional snap rings until the doors are aligned

(Three snap rings are provided per unit).

When moving your refrigerator

Note: Your refrigerator is extremly heavy. When moving

the refrigerator for installing, cleaning or service be sure

to follow the next instructions.

1. Adjust leveling legs up.

2. Cover the floor with cardboard or hardboard to

avoid floor damage.

3. Always pull or push the refrigerator straight out

when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the

refrigerator when trying to move it, as floor damage

could occur.
