Raise the wheels while one person pushes on the refrigerator 

to lift from front side. Use the bubble level on top of the 

refrigerator or on its side to level the refrigerator. Check 

bubble level and at the same time observe the gaps and 

squareness to the adjacent cabinets, furniture or trim. If 

adjacent furnishings are not level, it may not be possible to 

achieve even gaps when product is level. Continue adjusting 

until all four corners are steady without rock.

8. 

Use a 3/8" nut driver to turn the leveling screws located in 

both sides of the refrigerator. See graphic 10. Depending on 

uneven floor conditions, you must turn one or both screws to 

the right or left several times to raise or lower the refrigerator. 

9. 

Close both doors and check that they close as easily as 

you like. If not, turn both screws to the right to raise the 

refrigerator by tiling it more to the back until the doors close 

as easily as you like.

10. 

Check and make sure to the technician sheet is placed in the 

base grille cavity before assembling this into the cabinet.

11. 

Reinstall the base grille into the cabinet, introducing the left 

side first and then the right side of the base grille. See graphic 

3. You may accommodate the water dispenser tubing and 

wiring into base grille cavity below the left bottom hinge.

12. 

Attach the base grille pushing into the cabinet clips. See 

graphic 2.

Door Alignment

The refrigerator doors are designed to be slightly misaligned 

vertically when the refrigerator is empty. Please follow the next 

steps to align the refrigerator doors.

1. 

Use an 11/16" open-ended wrench tool to loosen the locking 

nut located below the refrigerator door. See graphic 11. 

Accommodate the wrench tool so that it fits in the space.

2. 

Use a 5/16" open-ended wrench tool to turn the alignment 

screw. See picture 12. Depending on how the refrigerator door 

is misaligned in relation to the freezer door, you must turn the 

screw to the right to raise or to the left to lower the refrigerator 

door until both doors have been aligned vertically.

3. 

Tighten the 11/16" locking nut with the wrench tool.

4. 

Attach the base grille if it was dislodged.

Handle Installation and Removal

PARTS INCLUDED: 

Door handles (2), 1/8" hex key, spare 

setscrew(s)

To Install the Handles:
NOTE:

 The handle mounting setscrews are preinstalled in the 

handle.

1. 

Remove the handles, which are packed inside the refrigerator.

NOTE:

 To avoid scratching the finish, place the handles on a 

towel or other soft surface.

2. 

Open the freezer door. On the refrigerator door, place the 

handle on the shoulder screws with the setscrews facing the 

freezer.

3. 

Firmly push the handle toward the door until the handle base 

is flush against the door.

4. 

While holding the handle, insert the short end of the hex key 

into the upper hole and slightly rotate the hex key until it is 

engaged in the setscrew.

5. 

Using a clockwise motion, tighten the setscrew until it begins 

to contact the shoulder screw.

6. 

Repeat steps 4 and 5 to begin fastening the lower setscrew.

7. 

Once both setscrews have been partially tightened as outlined 

in the previous steps, fully tighten both the upper and lower 

setscrews.

 When the screws feel tight, tighten them an 

additional quarter-turn. The handle is not properly installed 

without this extra tightening.

8.

steps 2 through 7 to install the other handle onto the freezer 

door with the setscrews facing the refrigerator.
