Installation (Continued)
Door Opening
Your refrigerator should be positioned
to allow easy access to a counter when
removing food. For best use of refrigerator
drawers and freezer baskets, the refrigerator
should be in a position where both can be
fully opened.
NOTE
The refrigerator doors are designed to shut
by themselves within a 20 degree opening.

Level Refrigerator & Adjust Doors (if
necessary)
Guidelines for final positioning of your
refrigerator:
•
All four corners of the cabinet must rest firmly
on the floor.
• The sides should tilt ¼ inch (6 mm) from
front to back (to ensure that doors close
and seal properly).
• Doors should align with each other and be
level.
Most of these conditions can be met by raising
or lowering the adjustable front rollers.
To level the cabinet using the front rollers:
1. Slightly open freezer drawer. Lift the
toe grille and gently pull forward (see
illustration).
Leveling Freezer Door
(if necessary)
To level the freezer door:
1. Check gasket seal around top, bottom,
and sides of freezer door.
2. If gasket is not sealed, open door and
slightly loosen four door screws (two on
each side) to allow door to rotate.
3. Close door and recheck the seal on the
gasket. Open door by grabbing in the
center sides of the door. Be careful not
to rotate door when opening.
4. Tighten four drawer screws.
5. Recheck gasket seal.

2. You can raise or lower each door. Use
a
⅜
inch socket wrench to turn the
adjustment screws (one per side).
To raise: turn adjustment screw
clockwise.
To lower: turn adjustment screw
counterclockwise.
3. Ensure both doors are bind-free with
their seals touching the cabinet on all
four sides and that cabinet is stable.
4. After unit is leveled, lower anti-tip leg
until it contacts the floor.
