WATER SUPPLY TO THE ICEMAKER
)
(on some models
If the refrigerator has an icemaker, it will have to be connected
to a cold water line. A GE water supply kit (containing tubing,
shutoff valve, fittings and instructions) is available at extra cost
from your dealer or from Parts and Accessories, 800.626.2002.
REFRIGERATOR LOCATION
• Do not install the refrigerator where the temperature will go
below 60°F (16°C) because it will not run often enough to
maintain proper temperatures.
• Install it on a floor strong enough to support it fully loaded.
CLEARANCES
Allow the following clearances for ease of installation, proper air
circulation and plumbing and electrical connections.
• Sides 1/8" (4 mm)
• Top 1" (25 mm)
• Back 1" (25 mm)
A door clearance of 3/4" (19 mm) is needed for a 90° door
opening which provides better access to the food storage area.

ROLLERS
The rollers have 3 purposes:
s Rollers adjust so the door closes easily when opened about
halfway.
s Rollers adjust so the refrigerator is firmly positioned on the
floor and does not wobble.
s Rollers allow you to move the refrigerator away from the wall
for cleaning.
To adjust the rollers:
Turn the roller adjusting screws
clockwise to raise the refrigerator,
counterclockwise to lower it. Use an
adjustable wrench (3/8" hex head bolt) or pliers.
DOOR ALIGNMENT
After leveling, make sure that the doors are even at the top.
To make the doors even, adjust the refrigerator door as follows:
Remove the Base Grille, open the doors, then pull the grille
straight out.
Determine which of the two doors is higher than the other.
Lift the lower door, along with the small cam.
Place the shim between the Door Metal Hinge and the small
cam as shown.
Press in the shim so that it fits in between the metal hinge
and the plastic cam.
Close the doors and check if they are level at the top. If one
door is still lower than the other, repeat the process and
insert another shim.
NOTE: If the doors are not even and the shim is already inserted,
you can remove the shim to lower the door.
