REFRIGERATOR INSTALLATION
LEVELING AND DOOR ALIGNMENT
Leveling
After installing, secure the product with the LEG not to
move left or right.
Your refrigerator has two front leveling legs—one on the
right and one on the left. Adjust legs to alter tilt from front-
to-back or side-to-side. If your refrigerator seems
unsteady or you want the doors to close easier, adjust the
refrigerator’s tilt using the instructions below:
1. Plug the refrigerator’s power cord into a 3-prong
grounded outlet. Move the refrigerator into its final
position. Remove the base cover.
To remove the base cover
1. Open the Freezer Drawer. (Drawer not shown for
clarity.)
2. Once drawer is open there is sufficient clearance to
remove screws on top of cover.
To replace base cover:
* Place cover into position and insert and tighten.
2. Turn the leveling leg clockwise to raise that side of the
refrigerator or counterclockwise to lower It. It may take
several turns of the leveling leg to adjust the tilt of fhe
refrigerator.
NOTE: Having someone push backward against the
top of the refrigerator takes some weight off fhe leveling
legs. This makes it easier to adjust the legs.
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 legs clockwise. It
may take several more turns, and you should turn both
leveling legs the same amount.
4. Re-adjust if necessary.
5. Replace the base cover.
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.
Door Alignment
If the space between your doors is uneven, follow the
instructions below to align the doors:
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 with the refrigerator in
the Use & Care Guide packet.)
Level the refrigerator by using an 11/32 inch (8mm)
wrench or a flat blade screw driver.
Turn the leveling legs (CCW) to raise or (CW) to lower
the height of the front of the refrigerator.
NOTE: The front of the refrigerator should be slightly
higher than the back.
