CLOSING AND ALIGNING THE DOORS

To avoid vibration, the unit must be leveled. If necessary,

adjust the Leveling Legs to compensate for unevenness

of the floor. The front should be slightly higher than the

rear to aid in door closing.

Your refrigerator has three 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:

NOTE: Third leveling screw is used for protection of

hinge lower.

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

Move the refrigerator into its final position.

2. Use a flat head screwdriver to adjust the leveling

screws (see Figure A), 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.

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

they close easily. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly

more to the rear by turning both Leveling Screws

clockwise. It may take several more turns, and you

should turn both Leveling Screws the

same times.

Door Alignment

If the space between your doors is uneven, follow the

instructions below to align the doors:

1. Gently pry off the Top Hinge Cover with a flat head

screwdriver and remove.

2. Loosen the Top Hinge Bolts using a 10 mm or 13/32

inch socket wrench or open-end wrench.

3. Have someone hold the freezer door so the space

between the two doors is even, and retighten the top

hinge bolts.

4. Replace the Top Hinge Cover.
