REFRIGERATOR INSTALLATION
LEVELING
After installing, plug the refrigerator's power cord into a
3-prong grounded outlet and push the refrigerator into the
final 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:
or flat blade screwdriver.
1. Remove the base grille (refer to page 10).
2. Turn the leveling leg counterclockwise to raise that side
of the refrigerator or clockwise 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.

3. 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. It may take
several more turns, and you should turn both leveling
legs the same amount.
4. Replace the base grille.
DOOR ALIGNMENT
If the doors are still uneven after the refrigerator has
been leveled, finish adjusting the doors by following the
