ADJUSTING THE LEVEL
Make sure the refrigerator is level so that you can
make final adjustments. Use a level to test if the
refrigerator is level both side to side and back to
front. If the refrigerator is not level, you will not
be able to get the doors perfectly even, which
may cause moisture condensation and increased
energy bills. Below is an example of how to level
the refrigerator if the left side of the refrigerator is
lower than the right side.
How to adjust the level
1.
Open the freezer drawer and remove the lower
basket.
2.
Insert a flat-blade screwdriver (-) into the notch
on the left control lever, and turn it counter-
clockwise to level the refrigerator. (You turn the
lever clockwise to lower the refrigerator and
counterclockwise to raise it.)
flat-blade screwdriver (-) Control Lever
Both control levers must be touching the floor
to avoid possible personal injury or property
damage because of tipping.
If the right side is lower, perform the same
procedure, but with the right control lever.
It is difficult to remove the cover leg front from
the refrigerator, so we do not recommend
making small adjustments with the control lever.
Instead, refer to the next page for the best way
to make minor adjustments to the doors.
CAUTION
MAKING MINOR ADJUSTMENTS
TO THE DOORS
