IMPORTANT: To ensure proper operation, be sure to grease the
top hinge, top spacer and washer with petroleum jelly.
1. Using a Phillips screwdriver and three screws, attach the top
spacer to the door.
2. Using petroleum jelly, grease the bottom spacer hole and the

bottom spacer hole. Be sure the washer remains in place.
Slowly lower the door straight and evenly onto the bottom
hinge pin. Close the door. Be sure the door properly aligns to
the cabinet.

the hinges. Do not depend on the door magnets to hold the
door in place while you are working.

Door Closing
Door Closing
Your refrigerator has four leveling legs. If your refrigerator seems
unsteady or you want the door to close more easily, adjust the
refrigerator’s tilt using the instructions below.
1. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
2. Move the refrigerator into its final location.
3. Turn the leveling legs to the right to lower the refrigerator or
turn the leveling legs to the left to raise it. It may take several
turns of the leveling legs to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling legs. This
makes it easier to adjust the leveling legs.
4. Open the door and check to make sure that it closes as easily
as you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear
by turning both front leveling screws to the right. It may take
several more turns, and you should turn both leveling legs the
same amount.
