LEVELING AND DOOR CLOSING To avoid vibration, the unit must be leveled, if necessary, adjust the Leveling Legs to compensate for unevenness of the floor. The front should be slightly higher than the rear to aid in door closing. Your refrigerator has two Front Leveling Screws - one on the right and one on the left. if your refrigerator seems unsteady or you want the doors to close more easily, adjust the refrigerator's tilt using the instructions below: 1. Plug refrigerator power cord into a 3-prong grounded outlet. Move the refrigerator into its final position. 2. Remove the base grill. See BASE GRILL INSTRUCTIONS on page 8. The two Leveling Screws are located on the bottom of the refrigerator on either side (see Fig. 39). 3. insert a flat screwdriver in slots to adjust the Leveling Screws (Fig. 39). Turn the leveling screw clockwise to raise that side of the refrigerator or counterclockwise to lower it. it may take several turns of the Leveling Screw to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator. NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes some of the weight off the Leveling Screws. This makes it easier to adjust the screws. Fig. 39 DOOR ALIGNMENT If the space between your doors is uneven, follow the instructions below to align the doors: 1. Gently pry off the Top Hinge Cover with a flat head screwdriver and remove. Loosen the Top Hinge Bolts using a 10mm or 13/32-in. socket wrench or open-end wrench. 2. Have someone hold the freezer door so the space between the two doors is even, and retighten the top hinge bolts. 3. Replace the Top Hinge Cover. 4. Open both doors again and check to make sure that they close easily. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning both Leveling Screws clockwise. It may take several more turns, and you should turn both Leveling Screws the same amount. 5. Replace the base grill. 15
