OOR CLOSING AND ALIGNMENT
Door Closing
Your refrigerator has 2 front adjustable rollers - 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 refrigerator power cord into a 3-prong grounded
outlet. Move the refrigerator into its final position.
2.
The two leveling screws are part of the front roller
assemblies which are at the base of the refrigerator on
either side.
3.
Use a screwdriver to adjust the leveling screws. Turn
the leveling screw to the right to raise that side of the
refrigerator or turn the leveling screw to the left to lower
that side. It may take several turns of the leveling
screws to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE:
Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws
and rollers. This makes it easier to adjust the screws.
4.
Open both doors again and check to make sure that
they close as easily as you like. If not, tilt the refrigera-
tor slightly more to the rear by turning both leveling
screws to the right. It may take several more turns, and
you should turn both leveling screws the same amount.
Door Alignment
If the space between your doors looks uneven, you can
adjust it using the instructions below:
1.
Pry off the top hinge cover.
2.
Loosen the top hinge screws using a
5
⁄
16
-inch socket or
wrench.
3.
Have someone hold the door in place or put a spacer
between the doors while you tighten the top hinge
screws.
4.
Replace the top hinge cover.
