REFRIGERATOR INSTALLATION

LEVELING AND DOOR ALIGNMENT

Leveling
After installing, plug the refrigerator's power cord into a
3-prong grounded outlet and push the refrigerator into the
fi nal position.
Your refrigerator has two front leveling legs—one on the
right and one on the left. Adjust the legs to alter the tilt
from front-to-back or side-to-side. If your refrigerator
seems unsteady, or you want the doors to close more
easily, adjust the refrigerator's tilt using the instructions
below:
NOTE: Tools Required: 11/16" (18mm) wrench or fl at blade
screwdriver, and level.
1. Turn the leveling leg counterclockwise (to the left)
to raise that side of the refrigerator or clockwise (to
the right) to lower it. It may take several turns of the
leveling leg to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Having someone push backward against the top of
the refrigerator takes some weight off of the leveling legs.
This makes it easier to adjust the legs.
Place a level on top of the cabinet to check if the
refrigerator is level from side to side.
2. Open both doors again and check to make sure that
they close easily. If the doors do not close easily, tilt
the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning
both leveling legs counterclockwise (to the left). It
may take several more turns, and you should turn both
leveling legs the same amount.
NOTE: Your refrigerator is uniquely designed with
two fresh food doors. Either door can be opened or
closed independently of the other. You may have to
exert slight pressure on the 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 that you would like to
raise at the middle hinge.
2. With your other hand, use pliers to insert a 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.)
