MOVE REFRIGERATOR TO
FINAL LOCATION
IMPORTANT:
A flush installation is NOT possible with a 24"
(60.9 cm) deep opening.
To avoid floor damage, make sure that levelers are
raised (not touching floor) and refrigerator is on
rollers before moving.
Use the installation block, attached to the door hinge,
as a reference to make sure that the refrigerator is
pushed back far enough into the opening, so that
when the panels are installed they will be flush with
the adjacent cabinets.
After the refrigerator is leveled and aligned, remove
the installation block from the door hinge and use
it to check the spacing between the panels and
adjacent cabinets.
NOTE:
The installation block is designed to provide
accurate spacing for 3/4" (1.9 cm), 3/8" (9.53 mm) and
1/8" (3.18 mm).
1.
Place top of cardboard carton or plywood under
refrigerator. Remove dolly.
2.
Move the refrigerator straight back and evenly into
the opening. Be sure that the water tubing is not
kinked and the power supply cord is on top of the
refrigerator.
NOTE:
If the power supply cord is behind the
refrigerator, it will not install properly.
3.
Make sure that the installation block is flush with the
adjacent
cabinets.
NOTE:
To achieve a flush installation, it is critical to
verify a 3/4" (1.9 cm) depth from the front face of the
adjacent cabinetry to the refrigerator.
LEVEL AND ALIGN REFRIGERATOR
IMPORTANT:
All four leveling legs must contact the floor
to support and stabilize the full weight of refrigerator.
Rollers are for moving refrigerator and not for permanent
support.
After moving the refrigerator to its final location:
1.
Use a 5/16" socket driver to turn the leveling bolts
clockwise to
extend the legs to the floor as shown.
The rollers should be off the floor.
2.
Adjust the leveling legs to level and align the
refrigerator from left to right and front to back so that
the refrigerator is level and aligned with the cabinets.
3.
Continue adjusting the leveling legs until the top of
the refrigerator is making contact with the bottom
of the solid soffit, or the bottom of the anti-tip
boards, if anti-tip boards were used. Do not crush the
compressor cover.
