LEVEL THE REFRIGERATOR

The refrigerator can be leveled by
adjusting the rollers located near the
bottom hinges.

Rollers have three purposes:
Rollers adjust so the door closes easily

when opened about halfway. (Raise the
front about 5/8

″ [16 mm] from the floor.)

Rollers adjust so the refrigerator is

firmly positioned on the floor and does
not wobble.

Rollers allow you to move the

refrigerator away from the wall for
cleaning.

To adjust the rollers on 23

and 25models:

Turn the roller

adjusting screws
clockwise to
raise
the
refrigerator,
counterclockwise
to lower
it. Use a
3/8

″ hex socket

or wrench, or an
adjustable
wrench.
