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 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:
1
Turn the leveling leg to the left to raise
that side of the refrigerator or to the right
to lower it. It may take several turns of the
leveling leg to adjust the tilt of the
refrigerator.
2
Open the 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 to the left. It may take several more
turns, and you should turn both leveling
legs the same amounts.
NOTE
A flare nut wrench works best, but an
open-end wrench will suffice.
Do not over-tighten.
Door Alignment
If the space between your doors is uneven,
follow the instructions below to align the
doors.
1
Remove the top hinge cover screws.
Lift the hook located at the bottom of the
front side of the cover with a flat-head
screwdriver.
2
Loosen the top hinge bolts using a 10mm
or 13/32 in. socket wrench or open-end
wrench.
3
Have someone hold the refrigerator door
so the space between the two door is
even, and retighten the top hinge bolts.
4
Replace the top hinge cover.
