21 INSTALLATION
ENGLISH
Door Alignment
Leveling the doors may not be possible when
the floor is not level, or is of weak or poor
construction. The refrigerator is heavy and
should be installed on a rigid and solid surface.
Some wood flooring may cause leveling
difficulties if it flexes excessively.
Refrigerator Door Alignment
If the left side door is lower, lift the left y
side door, and turn the hinge bolt using
the spanner as in the drawing. (for upper
refrigerator doors, use spanner
1 .)
If the right side door is lower, lift the right
y
side door, and use a pair of long nose pliers
(not supplied) to additionally insert a snap
ring
3 as shown in the drawing, until the
heights are balanced.

Leveling
After installing, plug the refrigerator’s power
cord into a 3-prong grounded outlet and push
the refrigerator into the final position.
Your refrigerator has two front leveling legs—
one on the right and one on the left. Adjust the
legs to alter the tilt from front-to-back or side-
to-side. If your refrigerator seems unsteady, or
you want the doors to close more easily, adjust
the refrigerator’s tilt using the instructions
below:
1
Turn the leveling leg to the left to raise
that side of the refrigerator or to the right
to lower it. It may take several turns of the
leveling leg to adjust the tilt of the
refrigerator.
2
Open both doors again and check to make
sure that they close easily. If the doors do
not close easily, tilt the refrigerator slightly
more to the rear by turning both leveling
legs to the left. It may take several more
turns, and you should turn both leveling
legs the same amount.
NOTE
A flare nut wrench works best, but an
open-end wrench will suffice.
Do not over-tighten.
