STEP 2C POSITION THE
REFRIGERATOR TO
ENGAGE THE ANTI-
TIP FLOOR AND BASE
BRACKETS

plug the power cord into the receptacle and connect
waterline (if equipped). Check for leaks.
B. Locate the refrigerator's RH side and move back
approximately in line with the RH side of the cabinet
opening, W. This should position the anti-tip floor
bracket to engage the anti-tip base bracket on the
refrigerator.
C. Gently roll the refrigerator back into the cabinet
opening until it comes to a complete stop. Check to
see if the refrigerator front lines up with the cabinet
front face. If not, carefully rock the refrigerator
forward and backward until engagement occurs and
you notice thatthe refrigerator is fully pushed up
against the rear wall.
D. OPTIONAL: Adjust the rear (and front) wheel height
settings to fully engage the rear anti-tip brackets,
while also aligning the refrigerator front with the
cabinet front face.
NOTE: If you pull the refrigerator out and away from
the wall for any reason, make sure the anti-tip floor
bracket is engaged when the refrigerator is pushed
back against the wall rear wall.
