The rollers have 3 purposes:

Rollers adjust so the door closes easily when opened
about halfway. [Raise the front about 5/8
″
(16 mm) from
the floor.]
■
Rollers adjust so the refrigerator is firmly positioned on
the floor and does not wobble.
■
Rollers allow you to move the refrigerator away from the
wall for cleaning.
Final leveling adjustments should be made after the
refrigerator has been installed.
