REFRIGERATOR INSTALLATION
LEVELING AND DOOR ALIGNMENT
Leveling
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 easier, adjust the refrigerator’s tilt
using the instructions below:
1. Plug the refrigerator’s power cord grounded
outlet. Move the refrigerator into its final
position.
2. 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 weight off the
leveling screws. This makes it easier to adjust
the screws.
3. 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.
4. Re-adjust if necessary.
5. Replace the base cover.
NOTE:
Your new refrigerator is uniquely
designed with two fresh food doors. Either door
can be opened or closed independently of one
another. You may have to exert slight pressure
on doors to get them to close completely.
Door Alignment
If the space between your doors is uneven, follow
the instructions below to align the doors:
1. With one hand, lift up the door you want to
raise at middle hinge.
2. With other hand, use pliers to insert snap ring
as shown.
3. Insert additional snap rings until the doors are
aligned. (Three snap rings are provided with
unit.)
